I get by with less then 10 feet of hose off the back bumper. I have to pull in just right, but have not had an issue. I have 50 foot extra hose, but I leave it at home.

no idea as far as the RV toilet paper. It is cheap, and we do not go through that much, so I just buy RV toilet paper from walmart.

I have not noticed much help with chemicals. but there are formaldehyde, and there are enzyme. there are some that can be used in a septic, and some that you should not use in a septic. I make a point to buy and use the "safe for septic" stuff, even though i am not sure it helps, but it is really not that expensive.

as far as dump station go, cost depends on where you are at. I know of lots of free dumps, so I try to use them. I have seen some gas stations, that charge $10, but if you buy something they charge $2. keep your eye out, there are dump stations in lots of interesting places, and some are not well marked.

I installed a dump that i can hook my macerator up at the house. it pumps it right into my city sewer clean out. I have had an issue with it stinking up the basement, but I think I have that solved now. I just made sure to dump when the wife was not going to be home for a few hours, so it could air out. but I sealed off an extra drian that would of been for a washer.
