Unless you have a specific need for that.. why? poop runs downhill. Hooking that up and running it at a dump station is not going to be fun, or quick.

Yep, split dumps are not a issue here. Takes like 5 seconds to remove and re-attach.

Thanks. I've been watching YouTube videos and it never occurred to me that the outlets were separate.

I haven't picked up my r-pod yet and I've been reading about the black and grey water outlets. Does anyone have this model and if so are the outlets separate(2 different outlets)or is there one outlet used to drain both black and grey water? Thanks.
