I guess maybe my neighbors were pushing harder than I was LOL.

Just make your own P-Trap in the sewer hose.
Using some of the slinky-stands, break the accordian stand into two sections, and let the slinky hose droop into a P shape. It will fill with grey water, and you won't get any stink from the sewer.
Depending on how good the septic system is... your camper might have been acting as the "High Vent" for the overall system.
By drooping the slinky, you create the water trap you need.
I straighten it out before I dump black tank.
