Has any member used a water/fuel bladder in their truck before?

Looking at options for carrying extra fluids.

I probab;y would have gone to water bladders, but already had two water tanks.

As for fuel bladders, check on the legality of refuelling. I inquired about the plastic fuel tanks at Opposite Lock, and the sales guy advised me that many servos (especially in QLD) won't allow you to refill them. Plastic tanks must be on the ground to refill (for static earthing), after which they become too heavy to lift. I don't know how much of this is paranoia, as most cars have plastic fuel tanks and diesel is not as volatile as petrol, however its not work spending money on things you can't use.
