Hey to everyone from west TN. We took delivery of our first camper, RPOD 178. We have been watching this forum for sometime and I would like to thank you guys for helping us make our decision easier by providing us newbies with information. My two boys (6 & 10) already have a weekend planned we pull out tomorrow night. Thanks and look forward a new family adventure.

Since the RPOD does not come with a sewer hose, I ordered a 15 foot rhino hose, it is too long for the storage tube under the LP tank, now, any suggestions?

Unfortunately, the only length that will fit the storage tube is a 10 foot one. If you can return the 15 foot hose and get a 10 foot one instead, then you can use the holder. Otherwise, get a bin big enough to hold it yet small enough to slide in the storage area and put it there. You could also find the caps to fit the ends and seal it and let it ride that way I wouldn't want to just stuff it in without it being sealed up somehow.

This is a great help forum.  One comment  is to buy a 5 inch fence post, 5 feet long.  Can't be to hard to install with end caps.  I bought my 15 foot hose from Amazon, have no clue how to return things to them.
