Maybe consider getting an extra cassette and DIY a storage area in the rear for it. Would let you fill up one and then - while using the 2nd - find an appropriate dump place?

But as noted elsewhere, it does not have a huge battery bank and the batteries are flooded cell.

That seems to be the consensus on various blogs and forums. My NJ account has 3 transponders for 3 vehicles - no extra charge.

Many owners with rear baths find them a convenient way - after a hike with muddy boots or a muddy dog - to clean up, etc. before entering the RV.
