I have seen those on top of vehicles. I guess the load is spread so even that the top can handle the 380+ pounds.
Do you ever have trouble finding a hose bib to connect to for filling?
I lot of places don't want hoses connected to the valve.
Thanks for the quick reply. I may just get one.
Is there any issues with care between uses to prevent mold etc?
I used mine at the Bristol Nascar Race. Had to drive down a big hill after filling up and was sure it would roll off but it never moved. I carry a Water Thief so hooking up to a valve with no threads is not a problem. As far as care, after I get home I flush it out with a couple gallons of water with a little bleach added to it. Empty it out as best as I can and roll it up. Never had any problems. I use it when we camp in the NF. There is a small campground about 2 miles away that has potable water. The valve has no threads, I use the water thief and fill up then drive slowly back the 2 miles to camp. I have never had any problems.
