Black Water Tank Question on my 2720sl - New Owner :-)
I just bought a 2008 Trailmanor 2720SL. The toilet inside of the trailmanor is not the Thetford toilet, but a general RV toilet. I live in Nebraska, and most of the camping here at the state parks do not have full hookups, so I am wondering what I should do. The two options I think I have are to either purchase another Thetford, or just buy a Tote Tank. I am leaning towards the tote tank, but if I did do that, what size of tote tank should I get?

I would look at a cassette toilet or thetford curve. There are a lot of people that were not happy with the recirulations toilet and went to the curve

I bought an 11 gallon Thetford tote.That was plenty for the recirculating toilet tank. I shortened the regular RV hoses to allow it to easy fill and more importantly, easy dump at the vault toilet. I now have the cassette toilet so these are looking for a new home! I'm not that far from Nebraska.

What is a vault toilet? I'm pretty new to camping with plumbing, always had a pop up without plumbing in it.

The vault toilet is where you can empty your tank if no dumping place is provided.

The curve is not a cassette , it is a nice porta potti .
The cassette is an option on 2014 TM and soon to be on mine.

So lets say I decided to keep the RV toilet that is in the Trailmanor now, I would need to get a tote tank. What size should I get - It would be me, my wife, and 2 girls (4 yrs and 8 yrs) - We only camp over the weekend, three nights max.
