seriously thor!? you couldn't have added 18 more inches so you could pull the drain hose against the chassis and avoid getting everything wet?

Interesting. On my 2018 there is clear piping going from the tank(under the bed) to the side of the RV. The drain valve is mounted on the side of the RV on the outside. My concern is when I have water in the tank, then I also have water in the line from the tank to the valve. This line is exposed to the elements and thus when I go down the road in below freezing weather it will freeze. I am going to have to install another valve at the exit of the tank.
