I agree make sure there isn't already a tank and pump hidden from view.

For running water I took a blue 5gal water jug and built a piece of PVC pipe that is threaded into the cap and hangs down into the jug. It has a garden hose quick connect on the top. Then I added a 12v pump from Camping World and ran the pump inlet to the quick connect on the water jug. Ran a water hose behind my cabinet to the faucet. The switch for the pump is near the sink. Works perfectly and the jug is easy to remove and fill-up. For my sink drain there's another 5gal jug with a quick connect that's clear, when it's full I dump it in a public restroom.

I have a 12v ARB fridge that sits between the front seats and is very efficient I'm very happy with it.

Yeah, I second the request for pics...have any available on your fresh water setup?!

Real basic but it works great for my setup. I don't drink from it but use it to wash, brush teeth, cook with. I will be adding a filter to the end of the pick-up tube in the future. It would really be cool to also add a UV light as part of the pick-up tube to kill any bugs.
