For those of you who haven't tried the Rhino and/or want to stay with standard equipment....
10 years on the road and I had my stinky slinky with me the whole time. I too read all the posts over the years about all the new do dads for sewer removal. I just couldn't see it.
I then was running across CG's where I needed that end cap that screws in to the sewer hook up. Trip to walmart and buying the Rhino sewer kit netted me all the connections I needed plus new sewer hose, so I bought it.
The "difference" it makes in the ease of sewer hookup functions of RV'ng is UNBELIEVABLE!. Just taking it out of your sewer bay or storage is so much easier, being able to pick your length because its collapsible actually makes draining the black tank more efficient for those short runs, cleaning it out at the sewer station with a hose is a snap etc.
IMHO it is one of the cheapest things you can buy to make RV'ing more fun in all aspects! I am just so sorry I waited so long to buy one.:C
