Re: [A/S] Newbie questions
We have a 75/27 Overlander, same set up although I don't believe we have
16 gal. gray tank. And with 5 of us if we did have 16 it would still be too
small. Last summer I had to pull the pan and access the holding tanks to do
some support work for them and I can't see how you can stuff a larger tank in
there. I'm not a long time A/S buff so maybe someone else has an idea.
However we handle gray water like this. Most rallies we have attended have
permitted gray (or washwater as the term has been recommended we use) to be
run out on the ground. If this is not posable we have a 25 gal blue tank that
we dump the washwater into then take it to the dump station. During our
traveling the gray tank has plenty of capacity for wash ups ect.
Don't let this freak you out but there are some years in the seventies
that is advisable to travel with empty tanks as the frame rails lack the
support for the job. Another reason to stick with the supplied tank. I don't
know the years or length that is more susceptible than others, but full
tanks, bicycle racks aggravate the situation.
