How much sewer hose?
When I bought the coach a few months ago, it had 30 feet of sewer hose, a 10-foot hose and a 20-foot hose. The hoses that came with it shows some age, so I plan on replacing before an “accident” requ...

..You didn't ask this, but I'm going to give you this advice, also, as to the type of hose to get: You never know, when a hose may spring a leak and you will find yourself having to find, buy a hose in an area you're not familar with. That being the case, its best to go with the standard, common hoses with standard bayonet-style connections that can be bought just about anywhere.
All those "fancy-shmancy" hoses that can be run over, survive a hurricane, and have cool little connectors are all fine and dandy when they work, but ALL hoses will eventually leak. Finding a replacement or fittings for one of those fancy hoses somewhere out in the boonies can be difficult.
OP here.
The coach came with hoses that had unusual fittings, but I understand why. The built-in hose carrier is too small to accommodate a bayonet fitting. So that held a 10' hose with a Prest-O Fit connector on the male end.
There was an added hose carrier consisting of a 4" drain pipe with a 20' hose with matching Prest-O Fit connector on one end, and an adapter for a sewer connection on the other end.
Besides the fact that the hoses had some age (and me wanting to avoid a leak at a bad time) I wanted to get new hose(s) with bayonet fittings and just carry it/them in the drain pipe carrier that a previous owner had installed.
