We live out of the back of our 4Runner for days at a time and to make life just a little easier we built this inexpensive on-board water dispensing system. The water tank sits adjacent to our cook stove and allows us easy access to fresh water when we cook. We can also roll down the back window to fill water bottles while we travel.

3' of 3/8"ID tubing

That's awesome!!!!!!!

 

Very cool!
I have two of those containers, ans I toyed around with the idea of making that battery pump I used with a water cooler jug to work with the Reliance one.

I could power your setup from my new Goal Zero Ranger battery/inverter setup I got recently got.

 

I have toyed around with the idea of adding a battery pack so I can use it outside of the 4Runner, but since we cook out of the back, it makes it nice where it is.

 

dang i might steal this idea
