Another reason for so many, they last about 2-3 years before starting to get pin-holes. I actually have them on a "purchase new hoses" rotation schedule. Every year, I pick up at least one new hose (usually 2 of them) and toss out the most used one, especially if they spring leaks or get pin holes.
The only sewer hose that we've ever gotten pin holes in are the cheapy brown ones. We bought our HTT in 2005, less than a year later it was leaking. Spent a few dollars on a Valterra sewer hose kit that lasted 10 years. Even transferred it to our Class C. We'd still be using it if I hadn't accidentally tripped on it and then stepped on it.
We replaced the Valterra with a Rhinoflex kit. Now, I don't think I'd ever buy anything but a Rhinoflex.
