I tend to agree and that's why having it under the hood in the  
[former] battery box works for me. I turn it on, leave it on, and  
it's one less thing to forget. Also minimizes the length of expensive  
line. I've got a hunch that most cockpit or trunk mounts will cost  
more in braided S/S line than the Accu-Sump itself.
I do leave it loaded with the valve closed when it's going to be  
parked for awhile... and Maybe I'll remember to open it before the  
next cold start.
