I went to Rays today and got one of those 59 lt water tanks. Its called a caravan/trailer
water tank, and at $59 seemed like a good deal. My plan was to use this in my Camper Trailer which is currently being manufactured. However i am going to use it in the back of the 4by for an upcoming
Easter trip away as the camper will not be ready in time. I have a space available in my storage system to mount the tank securely. Ok I'm to the point now. Just not sure why it has so many threaded holes. There is a bungless hole on one of the flat sides, not sure if this is a filler or a breather? On one end is a 2 smallish plugs of which one is a bung and the other is open, as
well as a largish filler pipe?

depends on how you mount it, the normal position would be flat on the floor, with the two bungs towards the bottom and the filler uppermost. those two bungs are the outlet (s), usually only use one in a vehicle.
The threaded hole in the big flat side is the breather, drill a 1/4 " hole in the bottom of the recess and then thread a fitting into it to take the pipe away to the highest point inside the vehicle, if temporary installation cable tie it to a grab handle or top of cargo barrier
