Bobtail full of fuel scales at about 20k with all the stuff in it.
Besides the water, also have the wood for the shelving adding maybe 100lb or more, the chest freezer which weighs around 80lb empty, then all the tools etc in the truck. All the other junk, clothes, appliances, etc.
Corona virus cases will skyrocket in a week.

Thats a Obese Bobtail.
But hey the more the merrier.
Wont be long before everyone throws in three drive axles to accomodate the bloat.tommymonza Thanks this. -
There are a bunch of people that cannot afford to rush out and panic buy. People on fixed incomes that get paid once a month. The credit card industry is probably jumping for joy right now as idiots overextend their finances more than they already were.
Be interesting if the stores will be ready for all of the returns coming when people start bringing the extra stuff back that they didn't need in the first place.bentstrider83, dwells40 and 650cat425 Thank this. -
15 gallons of water would get me through a week between cookin making coffee, iced tea and keeping the countertop Ice maker rolling.
I had my one Aldi in Indiana that I could get easy in and out that I stocked up with their fake Lacroix water for 2.20 a case . Plus being from Michigan didn't have to deal with the returnables .
Usaully 40 to 50 cases if they had the flavor I wanted which was hard to come by some days.
Tried to keep loads like that to when I was heading home empty because I usaully always was at 50 thousand in the tank and 79500 with a little bit of fuel .
I Would unload into my van at the yard that I would get back to once a week, winter and freezing made it challenging.
Always had fresh meat and lettuce and veggies in the frig, Paul Newman frozen pizzas in the freezer.
I always ate good and healthy , though some mornings I dreaded cleaning up after a big night of cooking, especially Pho night.
Most of the dairies are out in the middle of no where and even if you get on and out at night usually not enough time on clock to find civivilization .
All that in a 60 inch sleeper. Looking forward to custom building out my 72 inch on my 97 international. A lot more width 3 feet and above in the international sleeper.Last edited: Mar 14, 2020

Bottles here, but use gallon jugs now. Originally designed it to accommodate up to 8 cases of water and is screwed down into the bunk so wont go anywhere.
84qt Whynter Portable Chest Freezer. Usually kept set to 0f to store frozen meats and microwavable stuff. Have a truckfridge refrigerator as well that I use for thawing meat to cook, leftovers, cheese, and other stuff that can't really be kept frozen.

I think the neighbor kid I hired to pick up the poop in the back yard figured out we don't have a dog...
