    Sure, why?

    Maybe a poll would have been useful here?

    I even fill MarAzul's tanks with my well water. You never know what the Democrats running the Cities will put in the water.

    It is sooooo disgusting. My grandmother's well water in Ridgefield is like heaven compared to this. Don't drink the tap water here, haven't had more than a few glasses in 10 years.

    so you have to go home to replenish your fresh water? That's got to put serious limits on your journeys.

    I drink tap water in oregon all the time.

    Most other states water smells horrible. Montana in particular. Smells like ass.

    Rain water works nicely too, but I leave Bandon with 180 gallons.

    Did you know?

    Bottled water is regulated by the Food & Drug Adm.
    Tap water is regulated by the Environmental Protection Agency.

    The EPA has MUCH stricter standards regulating tap water than the FDA standards for regulating bottled water.

    Bull Run water in Portland is great; most water in Western Oregon is great. Tap water from the Great Basin is way too alkaline for my taste.

    I love Bull Run water, I drink Portland tap water all the time. I can totally tell when the city of Portland switches from Bull Run water to the wells in east Multnomah county.

    In Mexico and south america I only order water con gas sin hielo.
