Scott. Glad you signed up. For me. It's been a bit of a love/ dislike relationship. Not hate. But I'd do it again. The Royales are great. As you have more options. I made mine so I can dump just the black. Ore just the gray. When dumping both. I use the gray last as a rinse. Also I can dump with the 3" hose. Or the macerator. The main reason that I have the 3". Is that I can fill the black tank with lots of fresh water for a rinse. Then open the 3" for a stronger/faster final rinse. I also put a rinse spray nozzle in the black tank to create more turbulence during the dump/rinse. I've checked the black tank with an inspection camera. It gets really clean. The Bob Done-a-hug
 
The black also is a different plastic and consequently needs a different cement. If you use Oatey PVC cement on it, be prepared for a shitty surprise
eventually.

Lowe's had them last time I wanted some - year or two ago.

You also have to be sure to get that ABS cement.

Oatey also markets an all purpose that does not work well on ABS and a special that is for joining ABS and PVC and that can also lead to an less than
great result.

When you have a can of black ABS cement, keep it around as you can also use it to patch your grill and headlight surrounds.
