    I have pictures in my thread of my setup... I had a few.

    First was 12 gallon tank in back seat with pump, water at back of tailgate (hose and faucet). I had under $200 into this.

    Next I moved the tank to the bed, put faucet on the roof of the topper. All the same stuff.

    Then i added a propane instant water heater which could pull from tank or aux source. And had a shower head i could quick connect to the side of the topper.

    Next i ditched the water heater and added a second pvc tank on the roof for a little solar heat.

    Gravity is decent, but you can get a 12v water pump for $25 and have many more options.

    Dry weight is 4850, tounge weight is 610 looks like fully loaded it will be around 6500lbs and 900lbs tounge weight. The added storage locker reduces tounge weight but I will only be able to put light items in it.

    Yeah that will be no problem. I’m at about 6000 fully loaded and the sequoia does not break a sweat. It does mind some rpms in the mountains either.

    I agree with @Stig I used a similar set up and have a large water tank and 12v pump in the bed. I added a 12v heating element so I can warm the water all day while the truck is running and have a decient shower at night. For shower room a cheep Amazon pop up changing room with a vinal rear cargo mat from Wally World

    ‘Tis true also but I think it depend on where your camp is and what/who is around. Most of the tune it’s a lot easier.

    Last time for a shower room we used the annex. Main reason to was try and keep heat in.
