Thanks Bill
The hot soapy water sounds like a good idea. I've heard others say Water, Water, Water.
The Eagle Cap is a nice camper. We spent quite a bit of time looking at them. I drove from California to Oregon (approx 1k miles round trip) to look at the EC campers. Sutton RV and Apache. We looked at the 960, 1160 and the Adventurer 910db. I don't believe that they had an 850. I Liked all of them. Still do.
EC seems like a class act. Really nice inside and Out.
I noticed that all of the EC campers have the black tank flush system. So did the Adventurer.
I was really surprised that the NL did not.
What I am hearing from everyone is that the Black Tank Flush is not necessary (not a deal breaker anyway) but nice to have.
Do you have the 850 on a long bed or short and do you have the Generator?

Currently 850 is on SB SRW (with suspension enhancements). Great camper, very comfortable, lots of storage inside/out.
We have a 100W solar panel and 2 GR 31 6V that get us through just about anything (we don’t require a lot of power). We have a honda 2k, but only carry it for ski camping (not much sunlight here in NE in winter).
Our EC sees lots of use... but the campers you are looking at are top notch also. A slide was a must have for us after our first (AMLRV) non slide camper. But that’s personal choice...wasn’t trying to sway you from BF or NL. Both good choices. Spend time in both, take notes/pics and think about how you will use them. Spend time in the bathroom, and looking at storage.
Good luck,
Bill
