New sewer hose fittings don't connect

I bought a RhinoFLEX sewer hose and it seems to use a different fitting than what I have on my Airstream. What kind of connector do I need? I assume I have the Thetford fitting on my outlet.

You likely need a Thetford to Valterra adapter.

That's funny: my RhinoFLEX came with the adapter. Plus, most RV places here carry it, so it's never too difficult to get one.

Except at 9:00 PM on a Sunday night when yours breaks!!
