Water hose
I went to use my brand new Camco water hose...not the cheap white one, but the more expensive blue one. The fittings on each end leak. Am I doing something wrong or is this common? Don't know how ...

Camco water hoses are cheap, returned everyone I bought, both white and blue. best hose I ever bought, and well worth the price LINK TO GOOD HOSES
I've been using those "CHEAP" hoses since the mid 1970's and found usually I only have to replace one because the end (mostly the male) threads/surface gets beat up after quite a few years (10 or more). My current hose I bought from WM (Camco $10 for 25') back in 2007 and it's still going strong. Thus I can get a new hose and fitting every ten years and not start loosing $$$ over the hose you linked to after 40 years if that higher priced hose lasts that long. In fact I still have one of the two original white hoses I first bought back in 1982 that I still use around the hose, just not for the RV anymore.
The cheaper hoses work great for me and my needs.
