Black tank valve

[SilverbackMel]

I have to go back from Atlanta to Goshen for a full roof replacement on the 2015 due to a tear and patch when bad Dometic AC was replaced. Another 6 days out of my life and enjoyable camping! At age73, getting tired of Indiana and just want my rig to last.
I will say admission to issues and cooperation has been very good.
I need something that is reliable. I can no longer fix every darn thing myself! ( and have no desire to do so ).

Go to North Dakota, cross into Canada, and come back in from the north.....

I know what you mean, on the Wildcat Sterling that we had DW and me got very tired of taking camper back to Tom Johnson, a 320 mile trip, one way. After 6 trips back to Tom's and had a trip planned for Yellowstone and we did not want to chance going that far and something else happen to camper. So we traded camper. One problem we had was the trailer lights would blow the fuse on the truck, Tom could never figure out why that was happening. The fuse in my truck might last 5 minutes or ten hours, you never knew how long the fuse would last. You could make a sharp turn and fuse would sometimes blow or not. The camper was a beautiful camper and we loved it but we just couldn't trust it

I have a 2015 33IK. FR told me the black tank needs an 8 ft cable. Does not seem right to me. Anyone replace a black cable on one like this and know the proper length?

I like others always have a 45 degree clear elbow on. I flush, flush, flush to rinse out the tanks. I found that once I close everything down and hook up the 5th wheel to the truck and bring the height up a bit and guess what...I still get a quart or stinky water in the elbow. Lesson learned, don't disconnect the stinky slinky until after I hook up to the truck. The residual will drain out then. All that is left is to rinse the stinky slinky and stow it.

Put a valve at the end in place of the elbow

I do have a Valve as well for a backup.
