I explained to him how I come up with a maximum of 22 gallons for the whole system and he for the most part did not even reply to me. Anyhow that led me to believe I was correct. After others calling it into question I decided I better just do the math. If I did the math correct it is a 21 gallon tank. Allow six gallons for the water heater and you have your 27 gallons. I will say that the specifications should make it clear that it is not a 27 gallon water tank, it is a 21 gallon water tank. The total including the water heater gives you 27 gallons. So you only have a 21 gallon water tank in this trailer. Anyway I was under the impression I was getting a 27 gallon water tank but only got a 21 gallon. So in the end I will say I was wrong partially wrong and Gulfstream is partially misleading us.

Technically, there is the stated 27 gallons. But I have to agree, with a fair amount of confidence, that anyone reading that specification would think that it means a 27 gallon water tank.
Just as an aside, with our camping style I don't have a lot of concern about the capacity of the fresh water tank. Or, maybe better to say I have less concern. I can always add more water using the 5 gallon jug we carry. I'm actually more concerned with the capacity of the gray tank. Dumping that before our departure day would be a big pain. So far that has not been an issue.
