Hopefully we are mature enough to handle this discussion without too many jokes or too much innuendo Twisted Evil

, but I have a question about macerator hoses.

I am still using the same macerator hose that came with the coach after ten plus years. It is a piece of 3/4" vinyl garden hose, cut to length, and fitted with a male threaded fitting clamped on the cut end. It is stored in a conduit storage pipe similar to this:

The problem is that the hose gets/is very stiff in cold weather, making it difficult to remove and then re insert it into the storage tube.

The question is, does anyone have any recommendations on a more pliable hose, specifically one that stays pliable in colder weather? What do you guys use?

Thanks,
