Great new idea

Ok, I didn't know if I should post this in Jokes or Mods...

Was looking at a picture of a TT master bed and it looked like the bed was a waterbed.. Of course I knew better.. But then I had a brilliant (subjective) thought..

Why not take 2 waterbed mattress's and stack them on top of each other. Fill one up and use it for your fresh water tank. The second one would be for your grey water tank... As one goes down, the other goes up so your waterbed would always be full.

Disclaimer: For all of you reading this please realize this post was meant as a joke only, but thought it would be an entertaining idea at least..

I know you are serious so here is why it won't work. Unless you are boondocking, the fresh will not be full and the grey will never be full.

Shoot.. I forgot to put that part in the disclaimer.. Also need to add "Make sure and purchase about 1000# of movable free weights" to balance out the TT... :-)

You'd lose water that goes to the black tank. You'd have to pump grey and black into the #2 (#2 - get it?) bladder (oh good grief, there I go again). Let us know how it works for you!

I'd hate to take that first peek into the trailer after having slammed on the brakes for an emergency stop!

That's just ok.. That is what the thread was about.. Taking a crazy thought and running with it just to see what outlandish things everyone could come up with.. As a matter of fact if anyone has any other crazy mods like this one that would of course never work.. Go for it...
