I've done state parks almost exclusively since we started and I always carry my 6 gal greenie jugs. They fit the inlet spout pretty well and if you pull the stopper completely out of the hole and set it aside, the water will drain into the tank in about 40 seconds. Yes, I've timed it. I can put 36 gals in the FW tank in under five minutes using only gravity. Yes, the jugs are sort of heavy at about 50 lbs each, but only at the start of the pour. Ten seconds in, the weight disappears. You can use many other ways to fill the tank, but there are none cheaper or simpler.
And, FWIW, I've waited more than once on the road while someone filled their tank. Only takes most folks 10 mins (10 min.@8 gal per min=80 gal) or so. I've waited longer while someone has tried to back into a site. No biggie.
