Hey just quick question for everyone anybody have portable water supply I’m thinking of getting one any recommendations?
Any suggestions would help thank you.
 
I personally own a Waterport. Like it due to its compact size and is fairly light compared to RoadShower(plastic vs aluminum). I do also like the flexibility of having it mounted on the bed rails, I can switch it up and put it in the tow hitch, or move it around. Did look into the RinseKit, which I like the added feature of having a 12v plugin to heat the water. Cool for mornings before the suns out.

A buddy of mine has a Road Shower and loves it. I personally like the design, however its not as portable as the Waterport. My buddies is permanently attached to his teardrop trailer.

People seem to love the waterport. Don't have one myself though.

I also carry a Reliance Aqua-tainer for all my other needs while camping. Love it serves me well. I typically bring both whenever I'm on a trip.
 
If you start swaying to water port send me a pm with the price from costco (I live in canada) have one and will be willing to sell
 
I just ordered my waterport, and received it from costco. I primarily got it for areas where there are no showers after surfing. I am going to attach it to the accessory bed rails but, i need it to drop low enough to remain below the extang solid fold 2.0 tonneau cover. Currently, i'm at an impasse, because i refuse to spend 39.99 on a 1/4" drop down bracket + 14.99 for shipping from waterport. :confused::rolleyes:
 
We have two of these Aqua-Tainer 7 gallon jugs. Depending on the length of the trip and how long some sections we'll be off grid we'll take one or both.

We are looking into upgrading the rear of the truck to a higher quality storage. One of the things we are considering is an on-board water tank built into the floor.

I guess I’m lame. I like using gallon jugs and/or regular water bottles.

I have just been using a wide mouth jerry can and then I have a shower head that is charged by USB and pulls water from the jug and heats it. Easy to store and cheap and efficient.
 
I have a water port and bring a five gallon jug as well. I use it primarily for cooking and meal prep (lots of fish and meat processing) but it's also great for dirty dogs and anything else that needs a good spray down.

Here it is in action!
