On the rare occasion when I am looking at RV specs about the first thing I look at is freshwater tank capacity.
When we were shopping the needs were listed & one of the needs was a minimum 80gal water tank. Any model with less was automatically eliminated.
That requirement alone whittled the potential field down in a hurry. Even if you don't normally need the big capacity it is good to have for dry camping events like the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta, various music festials & many other RV friendly events where 50 or 60gal just does not do it.
