I have a 2005 Attitude Toy Hauler. My problem is when I fill both fresh water tanks up (106 gal.), the rear tank does not want to drain out. Is there a better way of running the hoses underneath so they will both empty?

Why are you draining the fresh water tanks when camping? Perhaps I do not understand your question.

I am speaking when I return from camping. We bought the Toy hauler used, so we don't know if there was a problem before. I rerouted the fresh water lines inside the cabinet to smooth out inflow because we could only get 50 gals of water in. The cross over line between the two tanks has sharp bends in it and was wondering if this was where the problem lies? Not only in filling but in draining also.

If you're having trouble getting water both into and out of your tank, it sounds like it may be a venting issue. Find the vents and make sure the critters haven't plugged them.
