    Updated with prices for individual items.

    Located in Greenville SC
    Asking $375 OBO for the complete package
    I listed msrp's or normal pricing you can currently find just for reference

    Main items included:
    1. $130 shipped - including #5 below, 26 gallon water tank ($89 msrp) ***not drinking water approved***
    2. $130 shipped - Nemo Helioplis Shower Tent ($149 msrp)
    3. $50 shipped - Shurflo 3.0 Revolution Water Pump (~$80) with inline filter ($9)
    4. sold - EccoTemp L5 Portable Tankless Water Heater (~$115 when on sale)
    5. various quick connectors, hoses, fittings, and wire harness with connector ~$80-100+
    This whole setup has less than 10 uses on it. I used it on one 2 week trip, since then it has all been stored indoors. I did clean out the shower tent but it was used in utah so there is probably some dust leftover. Everything else is pretty close to like new condition.

    Shipping the water tank might be expensive so I might prefer local pickup for that. I'm open to parting out this setup if nobody local wants the tank or to pay for shipping.

    This setup is pretty versatile so it could be adapted to be installed and used in a variety of ways. But I also think it could be setup and used without changing anything. The tank would be strapped down at the front of the bed, then the PVC pipe is fixed to the bed rail, running towards the tailgate. If you needed to change up the lengths of the water lines or anything, it would be pretty easy as they are all standard fittings and hoses from your local hardware store.

    Once the tank is mounted, you just need to run power for the pump, which already has an inline fuse and 80 inches of hook up wire to an Anderson Powerpole connector. You could add an on/off switch but I didn't use one since the pump will only run when you use it (on demand pump).

    The shower head has at least 20 feet (need to measure) of flexible water line and a quick connector at the end. So when you want to use the shower you just hook the quick connector up to the end of the PVC pipe that is next to your tailgate and turn the valve. The valve should be closed otherwise to prevent leakage.

    If you want hot water, you just need to hook up the Eccotemp tankless hot water heater. I am including the second water line, also with the quick connector, for that. The water heater has a gas line that hooks up to a standard 20 lb propane tank.

    Finally, the Nemo shower tent can be setup for privacy. I set this up by myself easily in a few minutes. Taking it back down is also easy and fits back in the storage bag with little effort. This really was much easier than I expected. It's huge inside and has a hanger for the shower head and pockets on the walls to hold soap, etc.

    I hear ya! This was more setup for camping but you could have everything setup ready to go except the shower tent. That takes 3-4 minutes to put up and about 5 to take down. Or just string up a towel between the doors? When I used it, I did have to hook up the hot water heater every time because I used the propane tank for cooking as well, but you could have it all hooked up and mounted on the bed rails or something. The hot water is instant once you fire up the heater.

    If you think you're interested let me know. I didn't think it'd be worth shipping the whole setup but I can get a shipping quote and work out a deal if you'd like.
