Booby - who has got there hands on one ?

No...not that kind of booby...but this kind



External water tank. 11 liters but designed not to taint the water, keep it fresh and keep it to whatever temperature it went in at. About 175 gbp...which is a bit steep for an 11 liter water carrier...but if its any good...?

 The next American ex-pat that calls it a "truck" is going to find out what 2.7 tons feels like on their foot...

Club "yes, I too have had the EGR's replaced..."
Club "yes, I too have had the compressor replaced..."
Club "yes, I too once had the car at the dealer for a couple of weeks nearly 4 weeks over 4 weeks...5 weeks"
Club "yes, I too have had EPB failure..."
Club "yes, I too get mysterious bings and bongs..."

booby water tank is a gr8 product.

It has passive thermal insulation which keeps you drink (water, non fuzzy drink, wine etc...) cold/warm for day long.

We tested it in the desert (@40c) on the vehicle top and the water didn't boil and were drinkable whole day long. At 40c the booby looses only 2c per hour!
On cold weather it keeps your drink warm (you can't carry boiling water though), so it saves you the time+energy of heating water or melting snow.

It also has a variety of accessories such a personal drinking tube (very much like motorcyclists use) and a tab for shower/washing dishes.

But the great thing about it, is that it looks really cool, it upgrades your vehicle look.

you can get booby for less
