I bought a similar tote.
I used it once, when I brought our Southwind home, to clean out the tanks.
Then it sat in the shop for several years, under the work bench.
Why did it just sit there all those year?
I'm glad you asked! I discovered that the Forest Service campgrounds we use when we are not in an RV park with full hookups DO NOT HAVE any dump stations! Dumping the tote in the vault toilets is against the rules. Therefore, carrying it with us would be useless.
Somehow, I just couldn't see it lasting very long if I towed it anywhere from 10 to 40 miles, one way, to dump it.
But, hey, if you found just what you wanted at a good price, and it will work for you, I'm happy for you!
I dusted it off and sold it in a garage sale for $15.
