Have you measured your tanks?

It's an issue to me because it limits me being able to use our units to less time than we should. If we don't have full hookup, we can only stay as long as it takes for our tanks to fill. And when our tanks are 15% less than they are supposed to be, we have to leave earlier than we want. The tanks aren't large even if they were what they are supposed to be. So every bit counts. We do most of our camping with electric only.

I understand your concern......but even with your 2 grey and 1 black tank being smaller than advertised you still only have a 42 gallon fresh water tank (if it is 42 and not including water heater capacity).
So fresh water tank is STILL the limiting factor.....have to refill it before waste tanks will fill completely.

Your waste tank advertised is 84/G and 42/B for 126/total.....yet only 42 Fresh.
IF at bucket measured 36 gallons each that is 108 gallons total and still only 42 fresh.

Yes you should have 42 ea. waste tanks.
Have you contacted Forest River :H

Personally, I'd much rather have a lot more waste capacity than fresh. You can always schlep fresh if you need to. Yes, grey can be dumped without too much issue (and our AZ forests need the water anyway); it's always the black that gets me. DW has got to the point where she uses a basin for dishes and dumps outside. Keeps junk out of the grey tank, as well as reducing the load on it.
