Hmmm ... I sure wish that my RV was as "self-contained" as our stick house: 1) A natural spring for our water, and 2) a septic tank and leach-field system for our waste that is so over-sized that it's only gotten pumped out once in over 40 years and even then it didn't need it. Ooops ... in all honesty I should mention that we have no solar on the house roof because ... for power outages I instead have a large portable gas powered generator as backup for the stick house. However unlike our generator-centric RV, our daily stick house electrical power is now less expensive and comes entirely from non-polluting sources.
FWIW, we have a large propane tank on our property and the propane truck came to top it up today. The driver also brought his propane truck over next to our RV and topped up it's built-in propane tank right here at home! I also have a dump station here at home for our RV that leads - via a deeply buried 4" sewer line - into the septic tank. Boy that sewer line was a lot of fun installing when I did it centuries ago!
