Since it's hard to put the drain pipe accessories like the fitting for the dump station pipe, I carry the whole kit, including the flexible drain pipe, in a plastic box that holds it all in the back of my truck.  That little tube mounted on the tongue is worthless.

Now...you know, I assume, that most of those tapered cones, at the right angle, 'elbow' fitting, at the far end of the sewer hose will twist off, like a big bottle cap, and the whole affair, once separated, should fit inside the hose carrier. 

Maybe yours is different from most?

+1. Our flexi-pipe plus the right angle fitting fit inside the container bolted to the frame of the R-pod.

Beats me, I never looked.  Wacko  I have another fitting that I'm sure doesn't come apart with a hose fitting and a spade valve that doesn't disassemble that I also use so I can see what's coming out.  It's just as simple to keep all the stuff together in a sealed plastic box in the back of the truck.

A counter point to a couple of things mentioned so far.  The Rhino tubes can be cut to fit any carrier.  I probably bought a 15' tube and cut it to 13' (I don't know exactly -- but it's all that will fit in my carrier.)  There's almost nothing to cutting the tube.  You just need some nippers to cut the wire. 

And I have one of the carriers mounted under the tongue.  It's all I've ever used for the past 7 years.  Hardly worthless.  To each is own.  Mine's pretty beat up and used looking.  If/when I ever replace it, I may look at other options, but for me, I'm not aware of anything else that would add much value or utility.  I guess if I could get a new one with bluetooth....

I scraped the original carrier off exiting my driveway once. I replaced it and then when I did the mod to carry the longer tube, repuposed the original carrier to hold a grease gun for my Hensley Cub hitch, relocating it to underneath the Trailer Tray and shortening it to suit the length of the grease gun.
