It may not, I've read not all Cabela's have the dump stations.

I am the one that picked up the only item in the store that didn't have a bar code, and you had to wait for the price check... I'll probably be the one that is in front of you at the pearly gates and they have to read off all the reasons why I should have been excluded because of how I made Dan wait for everything in life, and then let me in the gate anyway, because I had other qualities that made my transgressions inconsequential.... Now that I think about it, that might be the worst purgatory that someone like you would have to suffer, so I'll just apologize now...

Be happy, don't worry...

Scott with only 61 post you may not have fine tuned your reading here on such a delicate matter as draining your tanks. Look up the word Sarcasm. Doesn't always have to be mean spirited but often funny!

Now back to timing your dumps boys!

I wonder if these timing estimates are like fish stories.....not exactly the truth.

Maybe this should become a competition....WITH videos

Time starts when the drivers foot hits the ground.
Time stops when they re-enter the coach.
Then I think we need both Singles and Doubles (when you assist the DW) categories.
Then for those with the big families, should there be a team category....would your kids really help

Lastly we need the "Unlimited" category. This would allow vacuum/pressure assisted draining and high pressure tank flushing (unlimited PSI). Proper safety equipment must be worn if explosives are used and debris must be contained within a 50ft radius of the sewer connection.

Regards,

Dan

I'm not going to bash comments or be long winded, 10 to 15 minutes and done.

An airline mechanic told me a story of a blockage in the lav tank drain. They hooked the dump hose to the cart and then closed up the airplane and pressurized it. When the blockage gave way (a small water bottle someone put in the toilet) it blew the lid off the service cart and blue juice went everywhere.

I'm a newbie and adding mods for our upcoming 3,000+ mile trip. First I bought one of those wand thingies, but bought a Camco Tornado which I will install as soon as I get my black tank cleaned out. Any advice here?

My advice is to be considerate and use the gadgets at home or anytime that people aren't waiting on you to finish up at the dumps station.
