Post by: DavidX on February 05, 2008, 04:43:32 pm: hi it me again.

I am thinking of getting myself a van and a wfp system.

I am WFP, with a backpack right now.

From that you have to take away your own weight any passengers you will be carrying the weight of all your equipment and a full tank of diesel the remainder is what you can carry

how may opperaters?
how much water your going to use?
what your buget is?

id say you need adleast 400l set up even if your on your own.
peugot expert are decent vans. also the vivaros looks smart.

but like i said depends on what you need ;)

1 litre of water weighs 1 kilo and most sites give weights for tanks if that helps to work it all out :)
