Not all plastics are created equal. They need to build a better "bladder" made of plastic. Vandwelling for 5 years now, I found Arizona Ice Tea gallon jugs to be near indestructible. Sun exposure doesn't make them brittle, and they are bigly crack/crush resistant. I change them out annually, but could easily get 2-3 years service out of a jug.
Black toolbox plastic is way more sun resistant than the clear totes.
Maybe transparent aluminium's time has come.
