It would be extremely flexible and take up little space.
If that would work I could probably find a use for the large piping in the propane area that is dedicated for the sewer hose by Thor yet won't fit any end connector in it (sewer hoses) so it is basically being unused.

It would be great if another one could be used for the saniflush also.

Thoughts from experienced RVers?

Flexzilla hoses are drinking water safe and very flexible and dont harden in the cold. However, if you are looking for lighter and space saving what you suggested could work. I use a 25' Flexzilla and its not very heavy nor does it take up much space.
