gday i got a decision to make. i looking at purchasing a water tank... there are two seperate 75 litre tanks availabe. should 1 75 litre tank be enough for long outback trips. (its a trayback so i only really have to worry bout enough supply for 2 poeple) Or would i be better off getting the two? (150l)
Cheers Ro

I would say it depends on where you're going and how long you're going for.
How ever i'd rather bring 75litres home than run out somewhere!
I've usually carried about 60litres and find i'm always being really conscious of our water consumption. If you can afford the space then go two 75's

The second tank is going to give you that margin for safety. What if you blow your radiator, or get break down or stuck for a number of days. Water in inbuilt tanks has got to be better than carrying it in jerry cans, which take up space that could be used for other purposes.
Personally, I would fit both.

The Canning & real remote dessert trips, would be the only reason you would carry 150lts.
I have found 75lt should be enough for general travel (Cape York, Simpson, Kimberley, Oodnadata, Gun barrel etc). I have found it is aslo good to carry water in more than one container. The theory is if your container gets a leek, you won't loose all your water.
With a 75 lt you can always carry and extra 20lt as a reserve etc.

id go with both, its better to have more than not enough.
and you dont have to fill both of them if your only doing a short trip etc...
