Dutchmen Classic holding tank capacities

I just purchased a 2004 Dutchmen model 28RK -m5 fifth wheel and can't find the holding tank capacities anywhere in the camper or owner's manual. I did located was the fresh water tank size is 52 gal. but nothing on the grey, black or galley tanks.

Anyone out there have one of these?

    Thanks 2MT. That's what I needed.


    You're quite welcome. Good luck with the new 5er and hope it makes many happy memories for you and your family! Tim
  • I had a 2000 Dutchman Classic. It had 2 gray, 1 black, 30 gallons each.
  • Here ya go. looks like it has 2 grey tanks, each 30 gallons and 1 black tank at 31 gallons. Also the fresh tank is 46 gallons. The 52 gallons that you mentioned is probably including the 6 gal in the water heater. archived specs. Go to page c22 and scroll down to the green section that contains the info on Dutchmen Classic FW. Hope this helps. It might take a minute for the page to load up. Tim
  • From NADA home page......scroll over 'RVs' top header
    Click on 3rd selection.....'All RVs-Manufactures (A-Z)'
    Then at bottom of list is another drop down 'Don't see your manufacturer? Select from the full list:'
    Click on arrow to open and then scroll down to mfg. ie: Dutchmen Manufacturing Colorado)
    The Colorado is only 2004 5vr with that model number M-28RK-M5
  • There is a sticker in a kitchen cabinet that list weights and a 52 gal fresh water tank but nothing about black or grey tanks. Will call Dutchmen on Monday.
  • Oldbisquit : "There is a 2004 Dutchmen model M-28RK-M5 model (NADA guideline) but no specs."

    Where did you find that listing? When I go NADA Rv values, it's not listed anywhere.
  • There is a 2004 Dutchmen model M-28RK-M5 model (NADA guideline) but no specs.

    The 2006 has a 56 gallon fresh, 40 gallon black & 80 gallon grey which seems to be a common size(s)(nothing about 2 grey so if you have a galley tank could be 40 gallon each)

    No info sheet inside kitchen cabinets.....under sink?
  • The 28RK in the NADA RV Bluebook is shown as a 2003 model....not a 2004 model.

    2003 Dutchmen Classic Fifth Wheel Series M-28RK-H5...I couldn't find the holding tank specs anywhere. Look inside the cupboard doors inside the RV, sometime the capacities are listed there. Or call Thor/Dutchmen RV cusomeer service with your VIN number and ask them!
