Water hose

"austinjenna".....Simple, just buy a second quick connect, even a plastic one and screw the male quick connect onto your hose and quick connect the ends together for storage.

There are two VERY good reasons for using the quick connect. First, the constant connecting and disconnecting from the RV water inlet, often ruins it over time and you're often fighting leaks. With the quick connect, you can connect it one time, with some pliers and never have a leak.

Since the male quick connect is such a tight mechanical connection to the coach, it better supports a metal 90. The hose is then hanging straight down from the side of the coach with less stress and less of a trip hazard.

I should have elaborated more. I dont use the quick connects on the hose at all, I do use the coil n wrap no leak quick connector that is permanently attached to both my fresh water inlet and one on the black water flusher. I guess its the same principal as what you said where its only put on the inlet one time, so no wear and tear there.

I guess I dont need a 90 degree elbow, my water line feeds in from underneath the compartment so there is no hose sticking out the side of my trailer so the tripping hazard would be the same for me either way. Since mine is in a compartment, it only sticks out a few inches before making its own bend down and out of the compartment.

Actually for me I rarely get full hookups anyway
