Little Door into Truck Box Front Left Question

sewer hoses never,never, ever enter our living space.

Put a bumper mount to hold it (mounted under the overhang if you have one or along the truck bumper), put it along the side (if you have a shorter camper some have doors at the back along the side for things like this or put a mount above the box and below the camper).

The bag will get soiled sooner or later and will leave "things" on your floor, door, etc. Dump areas are not known for being the most sanitary places.

So I am thinking that little door is for a longer sani- hose in a bag. I like to have a decently long sani-hose for all occasions.

I would not want to use it for that as you would have to take the hose through the camper before and after dumping. There are better places to store the hose.

Yes, but that is what the plastic bag would be for. Where else is there? The one outside compartment at the back can only hold so much. I have seen where a guy put a long 4" sewer pipe capped at each end along under the overhang either side. That could hold a 3" I guess. He made his into an extra water tank.

When we had one of those we wanted more space and figured turning it into a long hallway with additional doors off the hallway might come in handy. So remember that scene from Alice in Wonderland? Or the one in Willy Wonka Chocolate Factory? We got a picture of the Alice one off the Internet and had it made to the size of the opening. Then we put that on a backer board and screwed it to the outside of the camper over the door opening. It looked real nice and we ended up with lots more doors to store stuff and then I realized we didn't have any of the keys and I always hate storing things out of place, you know - laying around in the hallway so it hasn't really gained us anything yet. But maybe we'll find some keys!

I think Sleepy put an furnace air filter on the outside with a custom made holder and opens that door and draws air thru with roof Fantastic vent fan...good circulation!

Just how many of them do you suppose can fit into that small space? Taking two of my grandkids with me to Colorado this summer and now I know just where to put them when they drive me nuts.

That really does not work very well. The will pound on the side of the TC, and stomp their feet on the bed of the truck. You can also hear them screaming.

not when properly hogtied and gagged......... Ok, I agree. That went too far :-)
