Lots of questions from the newbie! I filled my fresh water tank today but I don't see any overflow. The documentation I have is unclear. Is there an overflow? Thanks. See photo. Using a photo hosting site.

John,
The water tank vent is on the front side or front top of the tank. It comes off the vent and loops up about 3’ in the space between the bath module and the back of the coach and then drops down towards the LP compartment. If you over fill your tank you can have it vent inside the coach. Many have moved the screened end to be inside the lp compartment.
I spend my winters in Tucson arriving in late Nov.

OP here. Got the fresh water system sanitized today. The petcock to drain the house and the ball valve to drain the tank were iffy so I decided to leave well enough alone until I can pull the tank and replace them and the hoses. I ended up draining the tank with the pump. There's no gravity direct fill so I made up the solution in a gallon jug and pumped it into the tank with an old RV pump setup I've been carrying around for years. Good to go.

Is there a gas tank cap looking fill hanging in the propane compartment?

Hmmmm... Didn't see one but I'll have to check that. I've only had the GMC a few days so I'm just getting into it.
