Grippatank cut into the return fuel lines on my van and they had to be replaced they couldn’t or wouldn’t fit a standpipe into the tank never did get a reason why , I got the standpipe fitted by a local Wabasto specialist, I think dazmond had similar with them they cut into a fuel line and either the heater or the van wouldn’t start ?

Best trolly I have bought, ticks all the boxes. If he can't afford it then save up and get one because it will make his life alot easier.

I could have put down the rear seats and carried four more if I had to, but didn't.
The backpack was bungee strapped to a little folding sack truck. Would never use a backpack without a sack truck.
Put the backpack on the floor and filled from the 25L barrels.
Kept me going.
This is the kind of initial setup I was thinking of. 👍.
He's not in a position yet to go 'all in'.
It's rather slower than a van mounted tank but it can get you started and you know that if you find you have to increasingly go back for fill-ups then you are doing well and know you need a van.
Being really organised is necessary. Fill up your barrels the night before, charge your battery and have a spare - that sort of thing.
