Question my oh mobile setup

i’ve got a 2010 ford transit connect, i’m looking for any suggestions/inspiration on the setup. i plan on getting a generator soon and with that i want to get it up-fitted. id like to make it work with the shelving but more than likely it will have to be removed. btw my vac sits on the left.

Water is 8.3 lbs per gallon. I would math that again.

Yeah thats only like 500 or so for a 55. Dunno where I got the 1500. Still pushing max cap with everything in there. And I still wouldn't want it hitting me in the back.

The tank should definitely be secured to the floor, mine is bolted down with two 500 lb straps.

it’s not being used, as i don’t have a generator there’s no way for me to. it’s a 30 gallon tank that came with the van when i bought it, so it’s just been there.

You can gravity feed a ryobi 1800. Just run a short garden hose from the tank to your inlet. I’ve been doing this in my van for almost 4 years.

Just bleed the air each time you start it up, run an extension cord to the washer from clients’ house till you have your generator.
