Good potable water hose?

@Second, I choked on the price of that winter hose. Still getting used to this.

Thanks to all.

I agree - pretty steep. But the cheaper (think Camco and others) typically don't last more than a couple of winters and often have a terrible plastic taste. If you are full-time, as we are, and don't run from winter and very cold temps, it's more than worth it.

I find the biggest issue with heated water hoses is that only the hose is heated. Fittings before and after the hose are not heated, and prone to freezing.

I made my own with a standard water hose, heat tape, and foam pipe insulation. The heat tape is about three feet longer than the hose, I can wrap the faucet and the inlet at the trailer and really be protected.
