If you have the plastic rear bumper, it can easily be converted into a tank that holds 7.5 gallons of water. I use it all the time when I go camping for dish washing, hand washing and, I guess, putting out forest fires

That's an innovative idea. And, of course, something that AEV followed through with on their aftermarket bumper, which carries just shy of five gallons. The only thing I don't like about those solutions (as well as the GenRight second gas tank) is while the stock Jeep JK is heavier in the front, when used for overlanding it usually doesn't stay that way. A huge part of the weight added may end up in the rear. So solutions that move that weight more center are useful. Not trying to express disapproval of that answer so much as offering food for thought.

faster, more effective, never ending supply of dirt and you do not expel your survival water.

I run MSR water bladders in the 10 liter style. They fit in random places and are very tough, plus if one gets a leak you don't lose all your water. They can be hung from a tree branch or tire carrier....they also have a shower attachment that fits them, and the MSR water filters fit the fill neck if you need to filter water. I usually bring some bottled water for drinking, but for cooking and washing water the bladders work well for me.

These are actually an excellent product. I have two 10-liters that I can also carry if I feel more tha `8 gallons of water is needed for a trip (got an eight day Canyonlands Maze trip in the works and we'll definitely need plenty of water for that one if we're going to take a shower every few days!). The advantage with the MSR dromedaries is that they take up very little space until you actually need them. Leave them empty during parts of a trip where water isn't in short supply, then fill when you need them. And very durable fabric--I punctured an Aquatainer on my Utah trip. Very unlikely to happen with the canvas MSR products.
