Dry camping
I have a 40 gallon fresh water tank. We took 2 quick showers, a few toilet uses and a small dish washing and my tank was showing empty. What is the average dry camp water use? Seems to us, 40 gallons ...

We (two of us) get six good showers, shower daily and our 38 gallon tank plus 6 in the hot water tank lasts 3 days, 4 if we take 8 really quick light showers.
That 6 gallons in your water heater tank can't be counted.
You can NEVER get that water out if you've used up the 38 gallons in your FW tank. It is only the pressure of water coming into the water heater that pushes the hot water out of the tank.
Well, you CAN get the water out, but you have to go outside the trailer and open up the low point drain and put a bucket under the low point drains.
On the other hand, I think your idea of using a kitchen sprayer as a showerhead is brilliant!
