Sanitize the tank in the spring. Fill the tank with fresh filtered (Camco TastePURE  inline water filter) water and add Camco TastePURE Drinking Water Freshener (1.5 oz for 30 gal tank). Then use the water from the tank without worrying about it. The water will be safe.

I sanitize right before the first trip and that's it for the season.  If it would start tasting/smelling bad (which it has not) then I would sanitize again.  It's really very simple to do.

I do agree, some do, some don't and never to agree as to what is best.

I don't for my own reasons. Dinking water I carry 6 gallons and re-fill at the grocery. Cheap enough. Personally, I just don't trust any of the water at CG's. I can taste what they've done to it to keep it safe.

I'd switch to the 2.5 gallon jerry cans that stack and bolt into place, yet they're so darn expensive.

I would probably just use hydrogen hydroxide.

My parents had a camping store in the 50's and 60's and sold that "stuff" back then but the down side is that it came in a can but the upside was that you could always just open the can to add the water
