Someone on the VOG FB page had a Worthington tank on their hatchback rack mounted with a scuba or fire extinguisher mount like this...I bookmarked it because I may need to do this one day...http://www.powertank.com/products/sfID1/17/productID/188

I planned to run a hose through the rear of the cabinets and out the back of the pop up so I could use it without removing it.
