Still no word from the gray water tank maker in Kansas (Thermovac), so I'll probably leave Apache Junction for NH on 5/21.

Since I'll be passing through Smith Center, Kansas, does anyone have contact info (phone, email) for any Excel management that might still be there? I'm wondering if a 67 gal. tank might be lying around in their leftover inventory since it's common to nearly all the 2015 models.

Thanks!

I seem to remember someone on this forum mentioning that our tanks were manufactured right there in SC across the street from the Excel service center. I pulled up Google Map at the time and saw a building sort of across the street from the ice cream shop that could be it.

I tried to search the forum, but I have never been good at that.

If it were me, I would inquire with the Chamber of Commerce. If that didn't work I'd go business to business in that immediate area across from the service center to see what I could find out. While you are there you might even try visiting the local eateries and talk to the locals that gather there for breakfast.

Dillon's RV City in Apache Junction (a former Excel dealer) says the tanks are made by Thermovac in Chanute Kansas. Dillon's called them, and they said they had the Excel tank molds. Trouble is Thermovac is very slow getting back to Dillon's on when they could get a tank made.
