I did think of 1 question. Since this TT we are buying is brand new, and we camp at places that have bathrooms and showers, is there any reason to keep any liquid in the black tank at all?

NO! ALWAYS leave about 3 gallons of water in your black tank. This will prevent your black tank from ever developing the infamous fecal "pyramid" at the bottom of your black tank and then plugging up your tank. Having water in your tank will also assist in the breaking down the contents of your tank, thus avoiding the possibility of a plugged up black tank. Another reason is to be able to use your toilet when you are traveling, you can't always assume you will have a restroom available when you need it. It is always nice to have a choice and flexibility to choose between using the bathrooms at a "rest stop" :(:( or your own nice clean bathroom. Women and children really appreciate this option.
