Just purchased a 9 1/2 foot Hideaway slide-in camper.(1987)1st I have owned..It has only 1 dump valve. Does this mean only toilet may be used until you are hooked up to septic? Running water in bathroom sink just runs out of outside drain. If cap is put on and it collects water from sink this would dump with no way to stop it when cap is removed to hook up hose. Could it be this unit has no holding tank for anything other than toilet?

Thanks,

That may very well be the case.

Many older pick up campers had no gray water tank.

Thanks Dirk,
I think you are correct as to grey water tank.I got it to see if I am going to like Slide-in. Got it reasonable enough and it is in great shape. Looks like it will serve the purpose..I think I am going to love this type of RVing. Have 1-ton Dodge Cummins Dually.
