Which is why it's just as unreasonable when others have suggested buyers of new TT's should do their due diligence and check out the supports for the tanks. Many of today's TT's have the tanks covered with coroplast. Can't be taking all of that stuff off just to check out the tank supports.

Keep in mind this was NOT the dealers fault. I seriously doubt that any dealer is going to remove the Coroplast underbelly to see if the tank is mounted properly. I also wonder how many of our water tanks might fall out if we tried to travel down the highway with them full. Not saying this should ever happen but I bet there are a lot more this could happen to. No reason to blast the dealer, they're stuck in the middle and can only try to fix it. They didn't build it, they only sold it. If you have to get mad at someone, get mad at the manufacturer. They're the ones that cheaped out and didn't put in enough supports for the tank. Just get it fixed, it will be fine and get on with camping..
