Trail Monkey;
Here you go I took some of the 12v cord, the bed platform, the platform without cushion, the frige from the inside and out side and the frige open and closed. Plus some extras. Sorry for the quality....phone pics!!
Had I known what I know now, I would have got the bigger 4cft Norclod originally however I would still use the Engles for longer trips. I would have had the shop add a 12v plug in the back close to the frig location. I also might have done a custom configuration by moving the shower location to allow the frige to sit closer to the outside wall and I would have lowered the platform to suite just the frig floor area to allow better access. Basically reconfigure of the entire back platform area, I still might. The patform I made was just to make it fit tighter than the original and because I drilled and bolted it to the 'L' bracket. I also usen a ruber foam tile to help deaden the sound and vibration.....Worked! The cord just tucks into the seam thats already there for a clean look. tried to show that in the pics. Its still a bit short though. The top has to be proped open, for me a pain for my wife not so bad she uses her head...Literally!! Velcrow strap is a thought.
We really like the portability of the Engles. We did use the basic Norcold for the first year and it was very doable on a two week trip...just needs some planning and someone that's good at packing it.
Now, our last trip was three weeks+ and we used the Engles for pre frozen goods on the bottom very cold on top and transferred to the small SMB frig up front. We had frozen just thawed food in our third week; this comes from a lot of trial and error on other trips of course.
The only thing I would change is those that would be associated with knowledge gained for a new build.
Hope this helps, good luck.
Heh I think we're almost as excited as we were to see ours. Happy for you!!
