Dump Rage

The only time I had rage was at a state park where they purposely removed the threaded connection on the washdown hoses because using tank flushers, which used to be on few RV's but now days are on almost every one, became a huge issue backing up the line on Sunday afternoon.

So the state removed the threaded connections. Once I watched a moron in a class A dig out a 100' garden hose, and proceed to attempt to hook his tank flush to the potable water station for filling your fresh tank about 40 yards away on the other side of a 4 lane entrance road with a gatehouse in the middle. All while their were at least 6 other people, myself included, behind him in line. I walked over and got a go screw yourself when I suggested that may not be the greatest idea. The other guy who was behind me was not so nice, he got the go screw yourself also, then took out a razor knife and cut the guys garden hose in half. I thought I was going to see fisticuffs at the dump station which would of been great fun and a great ending to a perfect trip, but by then the ranger pulled in and read the moron with the hose the riot act lol.

Yeah thats insane I do think if I was the next guy behind me I would have gone crazy on this guy for cutting.

What is it with flushers that everyone is afraid there rv will blow up if they dont hook up the hose to the silly thing. I dont even have one but if i did i would never ever think to use it at a busy place. my sensors hardly work anyway nor are they reliable in any way the first toss of TP and im at level 3. I use a wand flusher in the toilet a few times a year in my driveway.

BTW, what is a "Weekend Warrior"? Sounds like an toy hauler RV. I`ll take as much time as I think I need to dump my tanks, which is why I have never had any issues with my tanks!

A weekend warrior is a non retired working zombie like myself that usually only gets the enjoyment of rving friday through monday, but also a weekend warrior braves the crowds and uses his/her RV quite often We dream of retirement and what it would be like to do all of this during the week!

Oh and yes the rare occasion that We stop at a FHU site the tanks are getting filled and dumped constantly they will smell like roses at those places. I think people are afraid of the poop pyramid or the struveit clogger monster but there are some excellent products that hookup to pressure washers if you need to give your tank a proper enema!
