Hey there everyone! Great news, we just got back from our first "dry run" camp out at my parent's farm with our "new" Argosy. We've had it for a couple of months, but it sat on blocks for awhile while I did some work on the undercarriage.
The electrical works, so that's exciting. We did not, however, test the water system. I am confused by the entire setup.
When I purchased the Argosy, I noticed a big blue plastic tank on wheels and asked what it was. The previous owner responded "the gray water tank". I know what a gray water tank is, but I guess my confusion is based around the fact that it seems like a modification he made to the system. So how is it supposed to work? Is the black water tank also the gray water tank? Does the Argosy have a black water tank? Not sure how the system works, so if anyone has pointers, I'm all ears.
Also, this thing has sat empty for years. I feel like it needs a good flush. I bought a filter for it (

love to be able to tell my wife that the plumbing is good to go, but I think figuring out the potable water system is going to take a minute or two.
We are going camping near Omaha next weekend, so it's our maiden voyage! Wish us luck, any advice you can provide regarding plumbing ahead of time would be much appreciated!
