    Waterbrick for fuel?

    Hey all, I'm figuring out my water / fuel / food storage situation for a quickly upcoming 6 month road trip living out of my '98 Tacoma. Has anyone used water brick for fuel storage? They're made out of the same thick high density polyethylene (HDPE) plastic, and definitely a bit cheaper. I...

    98 Toyota Tacoma Spyder Tail Lights

    My plan is ≈100W solar panel or panels on the roof. Been comparing and thinking about the foldable "briefcase" style ones which might make it easier to move into a sunny spot when I park & camp in the shade but keep on the roof elsewise. Or the flexible style on the cargo box... there's so...

    Thanks! Was just really delving into the solar stuff tonight. Will give it a thorough look. So I read up on the benefits of deep cycle batteries and whatnot, so there's no issue starting the truck off it I take it.

    How did you install your charging ports? Are they hooked up to a secondary battery, or to the truck's main battery? I'm wanting to do a solar panel set up, even if small. Thank you! I thought I wouldn't want to leave it white when I first went to check it out, but I love it. And it's a little...
