Which ever one you get, remember you will need to carry it somewhere. Hopefully you have space on the rear bumper or such.

I've got a 40 gallon black tank so i bought the Camco RV Rhino Heavy Duty 36 Gallon Portable Waste Holding Tank. It's pretty good as is, but i wish i would've bought the version with a handle that attaches to a truck hitch. Hand pulling it when it's full is really fun. I also modified it based on a you tube review. I removed the caps holding the rear wheels on and drilled holes on the end of the axle and inserted cotter pins.

What a difference towing it to the dump station. My gray/black tanks are 40 gallon each so if I want to fully empty I make 2 trips. I bought the 22 for ease of handling. Easy to see when it's getting full looking through the vent cap opening.
I have a Barker I bought 25 years ago and just drug it out of storage, how did you replace the plastic wheels, did the axle work on the new tires? Thx

I have a 2" strap that wraps around the handle then the hitch. No need to drag it by hand.

That's not a bad idea, I'll have to give that a try. Thanks

We don't worry about emptying the black water tank with just two people. However, this year with the obvious problems in our country we're showering more in the TT. I always have had the capacity to get about 15 gallons of fresh water per trip from the taps at the C G. I use a HF transfer pump to fill TT. I purchased a 25 gallon water bladder to pump gray water to the bladder in the back of the F150 and head to the dump station where I pump it out. The bladder folds back up and is stored in it's small box. This system is working out well so far this year.
