Why not drain pink antifreeze right away?

OK what am I missing? I leave the pink in, and don't worry about it until my first trip. After I hookup at the CG. I just run a little water thru the lines, Then fill the WH, and I'm done. Why should there be a big deal about de winterizing? I just don't.

Because it is a lot easier to do it here than on the road. Unlike you, I don't know where I'll be de-winterizing it. We will be somewhere on the road to AZ. It all depends where we hit the warmer weather. My water filter and drains are at the back of a compartment that will be packed with stuff. I'll be somewhat in a hurry. Removing the filter canister allows antifreeze to drain all over the compartment. It's a plastic tub with a drain, but it still makes a mess to clean up. It will still be cold. Darkness will be falling. I pretty much covered this in the first post. I don't understand why you make a big deal about an interesting question. I bet that if there was no problem, a lot of people would like to get it all done in one session. :)

I guess what I'll probably do is drain it the day before we leave. That should work out fine.

When I had a filter in my lines. I removed it before I winterized. Then all I had to do was run water thru the lines. It runs right into the fresh tank, and then down the sewer drain.
