sewer hose
I take delivery on a 2013 raptor and noticed there isnt't a storage space for the sewer hose? The dealer is even dumbfounded.

Storage tub or a storage tube mounted underside. What storage space were you expecting? Some people store them in the bumper, but that's just asking for rust and hose abrasion.

Very common these days. The square steel bumper is useless for that because the inside rusts right away and becomes very abrasive to the hose.
I use a plastic tote bin. Others buy commercially made storage thingies for stinky slinky. Still other folks will fabricate up their own. Do a search here and you'll find some other ideas.

There are no bumpers on this hauler. I guess you need to make your own? Dont get much for $60000 anymore i guess.

We got one of these and mounted it in a compartment.... works really well. come with clips that I put to the underside of the front compartment and the end caps keep anything from leaking out....

Home made
I believe it was 4" black PVC , 2 rubber end caps and 2 4" Pipe Straps. You can get all of these at a home depot. Except for the Pipe Straps. Go to a electrical place that sells this. Cut abs pipe to fit just past your frame (side to side) I drilled and mounted Pipe Straps on inside of frame. Put end caps on each side for access on both sides. Also drill a small hole in the middle of each end cap. This is for pressure to equalize in the PVC while your traveling in high or lower location. Now you can store up to 40" foot of sewer hose. I have done this on my old 21' fleetwood prowler now on my 39' raptor. This was installed underneath by the spare tire Will post a pictures.

I'm thinking that it's just not feasible to put a bumper on a toy hauler since the rear wall opens downward. Considering how flimsy trailer bumpers are, they're only good for holding a spare tire, and even that's pushing it. I doubt they're of any use in an accident.

Hose stow
I've been using the bumper on the SRX, thinking next spring I'll do the plastic tube, looks pretty neat.

The little handle space on my 2010 allows me to put in the compressed hose and my 90 degree angle. Tight fit but it works. It's surprising how small the hoses compress.

Yes but the hose is nasty why put it in a trailor compartment. Put in a tube or a home made abs pipe. And let it leak and stink there.

My Rhino hose and attachments go in Rubbermaid container just big enough to hold them and then into front storage. The hose has end caps so no mess even inside the Rubbermaid box.

I store mine in a 4" PVC sewer pipe with caps on each end and mounted it right behind the front jacks . Works out perfect for me .

I use end-caps on my sewer hoses and they have never leaked. Maybe I'm just lucky but I've never had a problem. No drips, spills, or leaks.

Just be sure your hose end fittings will fit inside the tube. I bought one of the "universal" hanging tubes and my hose end fittings wont fit inside it.

My voltage came with one under the rear but I added another near the waste control panel. I keep the extension hose in the rear and the main hose in the newly installed tube. Camping world sells them fairly cheap and easy to install.
