Just curious
I never drink the water from my fresh water tank even if I sanitized it with bleach , bottled water only . Anyone out there drink the water out of their fresh water tank??

Been drinking rv tank water for 50yrs. Never had an issue and never sanitized a tank. Just check the water before filling and use a filter on the hose while filling.
Ditto.
I almost always carry at least 1/2 a tank as IDK if there are trustworthy water sources where I'm going and more often then not I'm boondocking/dry camping without any hookups.
While I will filter the city water via hose while filling the tank, I have no issue with drinking it OR ever having to "sanitize" the water system.
IMHO: some folks just like to make stuff more complicated than they need to be. :)

Same here. Filled the tank in 2006 when we bought the camper new, then only added water as needed (usually at home from well water) since then. Do nothing special for storage but try to keep it on the full side for a quick power outage water source.
We do have a built-in filtered water tap so the taste is better but that's what we also use at home with the fridge since our water doesn't taste the best anyway.
