This is not standard throughout the industry and is done based on the configuration of individual coaches and the plumbing system design.

In my Challenger for instance only the toilet flows into the black tank. One 40 gallon grey tank handles the kitchen and bathroom sinks while the shower, outside kitchen sink and washer (if equipped) flow into the other 40 gallon grey tank. It is my understanding that on the 1 1/2 bath Challengers the rear bath toilet and sink flow into the rear 40 gallon tank, the front toilet into the black tanks and kitchen sink and shower into the front grey tank.

When I bought my Challenger neither the dealer not Thor sales rep could answer the question on how the coach was plumbed and that was when I requested the waste water diagrams to confirm my own testing.

Also on my prior class C (Forest River) toilet went to black and everything else to grey with the outdoor kitchen having a separate 12 gallon grey tank for the sink.

IMO, in some cases the plumbing design for the floorplan may be affected by the chassis since water does not always want to flow over axles, suspension systems etc...
