I will NEVER understand the obsession that many people have re: the relative "cleanliness" of their RV sewage systems. Seriously?
We have been 24/7, 365 RV'ers for 13 years in 2 different rigs. We have followed the same weekly routine for nearly all of that time. Black tank stays closed for the week. Grey tank(s) closed 2 days before the end of the week. On D day, black tank goes 1st followed by the grey. Entire procedure takes about 5 minutes unless we have to go to a dump station. Never a clog. Never a backup. Never the seemingly dreaded "pyramid o' poop". Never any odors inside the rig. When we disconnect it, does our hose smell like lilacs and roses? No, because it's a freakin' SEWER hose!
