Ok, I've got an ARB 63qt fridge, and it's awesome.
So far I've never gone without moving the truck at least once a day when using it - 3 kids, last minute planning, lots of trips out to get whatever from wherever. No battery issues so far - truck's about 3 years old.
But I'm going to Cape Lookout NS in July and will be parked for (I think) a few days at least. OTOH we might end up exploring in the truck, so who knows, but will need power whether it's running the truck or solar.
I drive a pickup, and dragging the fridge in and out is a pain. A slide would be sweet. I've thought about home building, but so far I'm still looking at the ARB slide.
I know I will end up with both eventually, but right now it would be easier if I went for just one - both are roughly the same cost the way I'm going to do them.
Right now I'm leaning toward solar, but wanted to get another perspective...
Anyone out there in the same boat?
Steve
