I mentioned it to Reace when I had the trailer up there awhile ago and he said to make sure the plugs are in. Told him they were and then he went on about the p-traps and all that. I just figured I was stuck with the smell and wouldn't invite anyone over to the trailer for the first day.

Maybe replacing the toilet would do the trick. Gotta show all this to Dirk and see what he thinks. He would be helping with the toilet replacement job.
Laura,
I doubt it's the toilet at this early stage in it's life and I've never personally had the experience described with the Thetford through multiple trailers.
I experienced this same thing late August and it was the gray tank stinking. Went to dump station and flushed the gray tank and all the traps about 5 times then put some water in the gray and added a 1/4 cup of bleach similar to sanitizing the water tank and drove around for a bit, let it sit for a week and flushed again. No odors of any kind since.
