If these are the 3 or 5 gal opaque plastic ones with a small metal wire
and plastic handle, then we used them at the OD last year to carry extra
water on the crew truck that Lyn <wasn't> on. They worked well, didn't
leak, didn't take up much room when stored, and what I thought was a
"flimsy" handle held up quite well. My experience with ordering things
from Campmoor has been good. They have quality merchandise and they
stand behind what they sell.
We also bought a 50 gallon plastic tank to carry water & we've gotten
much more use out of it. I find that it is easier to fill than lots of
collapsible water containers - stick a hose in the top & come back in 20
minutes! They come in a variety of sizes, but 50 gallons has been
enough for 3 riders on a 50 mile ride (in addition to natural water
sources). The 50 gallon size also happened to fit under my truckbed's
hard flip top were the larger sizes didn't. (BTW - Lyn DID get to use
this on the crew truck at the OD - ask her what she thought.)
