2021+ f150 aux dual battery for fridge???

Sorry if this is already been posted about but I couldn't find anything on the search....

About to get a 2021 f150 supercab and I'm curious what other folks have done to run fridges? My older Land Rover lr3 was very easy to set up with the dual battery but I'm not seeing a lot for the Fords.

Do you need something permanent mounted?
I just use a Jackery 500. Easy to move from vehicle to vehicle. Or into a tent or cabin.

I generally keep the fridge in there all the time so it's been nice not to think about it

I assume you are goin g to put the fridge in the cab (backseat) or are you going to have a cap on the truck?
I’m not sure how the 21 fords engine bay is laid out but could you squeeze 2 lithium batteries into the stock battery tray and use one for starting and the other for house power. Or mount a a lithium battery in the cab or bed beside the fridge.

Has anyone used a lifepo4 in an engine compartment? When my seven year old AGM house battery dies, I planned on that battery box to become vacant because of heat concerns.

Had planned to the do a 60 40 seat delete with the fridge in the supercab.
