Couple points about the tank size. First, where we like to go is about 30 miles to the nearest dump. A 60-mile round trip, plus pumping time into a tote, plus dump time. So, figure 3 hours out of a limited time on-site. Second, how do the manufacturers =know= there's no demand. Have they ever offered an option package like this to even find out? I've never received a survey in the mail, email, Facebook or phone to ask. I agree it's not something that would be real practical on a 40-footer, but in the smaller rigs, why not? I do get weight reduction, but how many of us tow with full tanks, other than fresh? =I= certainly don't, and dump as soon as I can find a station. I =do= understand water conservation, but a couple of those 7 gal cube jugs add a =lot= of time. Grey I have zero problem dumping, if needed; hell, our forests here in AZ can use all the water they can get, so that's a non-issue. We do use wipes and usually don't shower for the 3-4 days we're usually out. Hell, even in a campground on a hook-up, I take Navy showers. My main point is, and always will be, give the buyer the option and see what the reaction is.
