Hi Scot:
I thought of doing the same thing however I didn't think that I could store very much water in a three inch pipe. If your pipe extends to the rear very far, be very careful going over steep driveways. I came out of a shopping mall in the Carolinas a year ago and buckled my rear panels because of the steep driveway, I shudder to think of what damage would have been done if I had a bunch of sewer pipe under there. Hope you don't mind but I thought that I would just pass that along to you.

Jim,
 
I have seen some gray (or wash water) tanks installed. Each one is unique. Instead of a tank I am planning on installing 3" pipe below the belly to direct the flow more towards the middle of the trailer where most campground sewer connections seem to be located these days. While doing this I will snake the pipe around a bit to obtain a modest amount of storage for the wash water. I am expecting to get 5 to 10 gallons, which will be plenty for our usage.

For some time now, I have been looking for information on installing grey water tanks to my 31' 72 International to no avail. I have just succeeded in doing so and wondered if there were any other folks with the same dilemma. If so, drop me a line.
