It has been mentioned... a year or two back... sure it's in the archives...
I think there was one that mentioned a large bladder that held unpteen
gallons and fill with a hose...

But the problem I see is that larger volumes of water will heat slower...
that's why I'd rather have two of the 3 gallon Solar Showers than one of the
5 gallon ones ... on marginal days it would make a difference between a cool
shower and a warm one...

also... water is heavy stuff... not sure how much of it I'd want to drive
around with up in the luggage rack... I'm sure the rack has a capacity...
and a lot of weight up there might make the van handle squirley...

Anyway, I do keep my 3 gallon Solar Shower up in the luggage rack to get the
sun while I'm driving... hot shower waiting when I get to camp..
