Ah.  Thanks to everybody that replied.  It seemed a bit odd, because there
is an almost natural place for a small tank right there, and the hose
definately seemed "after market".  As most of my RV experience has been
with other (inferior, IMHO) van conversions, I just assumed that there was
a small 5-8 gallon tank that fit there.

I primarily camp at developed campgrounds, where dumping grey water onto
the ground is verboten *chuckle*.  I'll check out the recommendations that
others made.  Again, there seems a natural place for a small plastic
container down there.. maybe there might be a market for an after-market
modification.  As I know a plastics manufacturer, maybe it's time for me
to have a chat with him and see what I can drum up.

Thanks, everybody, for the hints.
