I use one 20' RhinoFlex, fits in the bumper and never needed a longer one, although had to pull up a couple of times as it was a tad too long.

2 separate ~15' + attached ~8 clear pipe to connect to dump tube for viewing entertainment. Keep it in bumper and check end caps often. Only problem with long tube and low trailer is "walking" the residual contents down from the trailer to the sewer after dumping and during rinsing. Just takes some patience and those wonderful cheap blue Harbor Freight gloves, but works fine.

I worried about losing a bumper cap, and maybe a hose, so I drilled a small hole in thru the top of the bumper into the cap inside flange, then took a self tapping screw and JB welded a wing nut over it, so it is easy to twist it in to secure the cap and no screw driver needed. Put one on each end.

I have 2 10' lengths of sewer hose that I keep in the rear bumper (purchase at Walmart) and I have a 15' length of the Rhino hose in a ZipLok sealable tote as a backup.

2-10’s but carry a spare just in case and because I’m paranoid. 😀

2x15’. Had to pull the second one out for the first time yesterday as the sewer connection is at the very back of the site. Also had to buy another black tank rinse hose as the ones I had weren’t long enough either.

Good idea - I like the epoxied-on wing nut fix. That's clever. I connected the end caps with an internal wire between bumper and cap. So far the caps are staying on very well. Sure don't want to be the the subject of, "Hey! There's somebody's dump hose in the median!"

Funny you should mention this. We use our 30 amp extenstion more than the additional sewer hoses. Our mouse hole for the cord is at the rear of the TT, whereas the tank valves are almost center.
