I recently came up with a watertight solution to the plastic tote I had been using for years to hold my camping supplies.

Step 1: Find Rain Barrel With Screw Top

12 volt pump

Step 3: Go Camping

Toss the barrel in your truck and go. Hope this helps save you some space and keeps your gear dry like it did for me! Thanks for looking.
