Chris,

You are correct in regards to my setup.  I thought about it before I decided how I would put it together and I opted for the demand pump instead of gravity flow so I would have water pressure (the pump I chose pushes 45psi).  I carry a coil hose that I can hook to my spigot and walk around the trailer filling water buckets inside the dox boxes.  It also works for spraying out a hog, washing mud off boots, or anything else imaginable.

The only thing I would change, is that six gallons of water doesn't go as far as what I had imagined.

I have a 12v battery mounted on my trailer and wired with an isolator which charges the battery when hooked to my truck.  I also have led lights in my boxes which run off the battery.  My next project will be adding a storage box of some kind which will have a couple of 12v lighter sockets mounted inside for charging tracking collars and system.  I'm still thinking on that one...

Also, can't recall the name of the company that makes them, but there was a guy at Uncle Earls last year that had some really nice water tanks made of diamond plate aluminum for sale and as I recall they were very reasonably priced.  That's coming up in a couple weeks, and maybe he will be there again.
