I have a buddy who I love dearly, even though he reminds me a little bit of Forest Gump. He told me there was a gas station in town where we could fill our water tanks. He got there first and was nearly done when I pulled in. When I looked at the water, there was a sign saying it was non-potable. He told me he saw the sign, but since he had a trailer to store the water in, he didn't need portable water.???
I explained what potable and non-potable water was and that it doesn't say portable. He had to drain and sanitize the entire water system before we went down the street to a grocery store who allowed us to hook up to their spigot (potable) and fill our tanks at no charge.
What I'll usually do is pull into an RV park for a night, enjoy the benefits of full hookups such as dumping the tanks and refilling the water tank.
