Poor Cracker Girl Posts: 12150 Location: Feeding mosquitos, FL	I finally finally got a new to me trailer (!!!) and it has an open hay rack on it. Anybody use one of those hay rack water tanks? How do you like it? Does the water get hot in the summer? I'm curious how it holds up under glaring Florida sun all day every day.

Keep in mind that the sun will degrade the plastic water tank over time. We would drain and take ours down when not in use.
