The thought that you can get 250 gallons of water for 1$ is inconceivable to me.

When I get one of those cubes filled up in Nevada, it costs me almost $200.

How can 4$ even cover the transportation costs of the fuel in that truck? Surely it uses more than two gallons of fuel!

Yes $1per tank so $4 and it's my truck which I drive 8 miles total to go get. My guess is just a few dollars of diesel at most.

Oh rad! Nice truck and you’re doing pickup and delivery so that is nice, but at less than a half penny per gallon, I’m still shook. The only thing cheaper than that is the spring water coming out of my mountain for free!

My neighbors have a well and just replaced their pump this year and with permits and other cost they realize its cheaper to carry it in.

But like me they like the sovereignty and I will have at least 1 well.

Their not irrigating their fields anymore so just small gardens and house needs are nothing..

We have 1000 room resort hotels that truck the water in. 🤣

Wow! Redundancy is important overall, flexibility is invaluable.

Unscrewing the lid next time will help it flow faster too ;-) 🤣😂🤣

Believe me I kno the suction when dumping is amazing. 1000liters in 5 min ex.

Do you do rainwater harvesting at all Jimi , or is there no point in the drier climate ?

Really no point, but capturing from the air using nets and more plants is an option.

Using nets ? To capture the morning dew ?

Yes, great success in humid areas like here. The plants even do it naturally. I theres a lichen that grows on many of the plant and captures water from the air to share.

Also look up water generators. Passive and active ways to get water from the river of air above.
