Sewer hose mod for my 2016 ACE

I have been looking for options to store my sewer hoses without putting them in the sewer control compartment. I don’t care how well we think we clean them, they are dirty. Check this out, it works great. Click image for larger version

I've got a single one of those mounted across the rear of my Outlaw's frame... Congratulations on a wise choice!

How did you mount the tubes? I have a 2016 ACE and haven’t found a god way to mount sewer hose holder.

I threw my hose away...I get everything packed up, warm the engine, close the slides, open the valves and drive off.

Under the passenger side rear. One bracket screwed to the number brace and the other to the bottom of my large storage compartment. Works great. I wish i could have mounted on drivers side but the generator blocked it.

Back in the 80's while working as a mechanic a class A Barth came in for a service job. It had a connection from the holding tank to the vehicle exhaust system. Owner said it "burned" a gallon every 5 miles. Don't think I'd want to follow too close!

That's like leaving a "stinky trail of bread crumbs" behind you...

Add some car wash to the ice cubes, and drive a couple of miles before opening things up!

You been watching me~~~ Actually I do add a bag of ice to tank before I head over to track and dump what accumulates at the house...not much. The ice banging around knocks the peanut butter down pretty good. A little squeeze of Dawn helps.

Perfect application for a DIY remote waste valve actuator...I see a new project in my future

Now can wait until we're on the freeway to open up the valves.
