Still loving our ARB fridge/freezers. Absolutely worth their weight in gold when you need them. We have 2 of the classics, 82 qt and the 50 qt. I have not exposed them directly to the weather. Always been inside the truck, or the truck bed with an ARE overland cap, or in the house or garage...

We have the "All American Grill" from the Made in America store, right here in Western Ny. All stainless steel. It will last for generations. https://madeinamericastore.com/all-american-grill/

Are the lockers factory or add on ? Just rear or front and rear ? Does the rear have to be engaged first before you can lock the front ? These things are important to some, not so much for others. Thanks for the clarification.

All good information on here. A couple things that I think are worth mentioning are: wind & weather intrusion. I can't tell you how many times I've spoken to people with rtt's that bring up the wind. Unless you sleep "dead to the world", strong wind can make them flap so much, that sleeping...

Whether you like them or not, innovation is a good thing. That being said, I have watched many of their YouTube videos and they beat on them pretty hard. Also, it ticks some other boxes as well. Zero suspension mods, zero drivetrain issues, and no need for a lift. The price is pretty steep. But...

Lots of good advice on here. Don't skimp on wire size or quality. Use quality stuff throughout. To make my system more easily installed and removed from either vehicle, I made up 2 aux battery boxes, complete with screw in ARB 12v fridge plug receptacle on them. Do NOT try to use a regular 12v...

You will find that the lockers are worth their weight in gold, when the need arises. Good luck with your purchase.

Lots of pros and cons to consider. For us, it was the height. We wanted to be able to bring fullsized milk jugs, coffee creamer, & wine. They fit upright in the ARB 5O & 82. They didn't seem like they would in the 37 or the 63. Dan Foss compressors seems to be the most liked for frugal power...

IMHO, you are far better off making your own. Yes, there are some great kits out there. But buying a good rubber maid container or water proof case & making your own absolutely rocks. Because you can buy your own high quality stuff to put in it. I have always done this since being in the US...

I can't tell you how many times I have been "cheap tent camping" (meaning $150 or less) in severe weather and the next day, we were literally the only people left in the State Park still rocking our cheap tent and a good 10x15' tarp with custom grommets that I did myself, and 2 poles & we were...

I use a "for life" coffee pour over/steeper and use a 50/50 mix of chocolate mocha and French vanilla coffee.

You can also find some nice 12v products at truck stops. Also of note, HF now sells pure sine wave inverters, that claim 92% efficiency. Catch one on sale. Ours has worked flawlessly so far (2000/4000 watt). We have a 700 watt microwave for heating up our pre-cooked meals. Our setup is able to...

Stanley Outdoor Products is a great low cost way to buy new items. If you do, check out Waypoint Survival videos on YouTube. He has some very easy, very inexpensive mods to make Stanley cook products even more versatile. They are short & to the point. I have done many of them to my Stanley...

Regardless of what you choose, just remember that if you don't sanitize it, you could become sicker than you ever have, and be in the middle of nowhere, lol. I always use plain bleach. No additives, no dyes, no fragrances. I double the recommended amount & then let sit while full for at least...

Yup, I agree. But the problem is that they seriously don't even care.

Tires, tires, tires. Tires will make a huge difference offroad. I would try to score a second set of wheels and put some mud terrain tires on them. Only use them when going offroad. I have seen trucks with no lockers or limited slip get stuck on grass in their yard. It was pretty pathetic for a...

NY State is just as bad or worse. I got pulled over and ticketed with a bone stock brand new 1988 Ford Ranger, on the Sawmill Parkway. Trooper said because it didn't have a cap on the bed, it was considered a Commercial Vehicle. If I put a cap on it, I would be fine. So I just paid the ticket by...

We have the All American Grill from the Made in America Store. It is for charcoal but has a threaded bung with plug in bottom center, so it can be made to run on propane without too much trouble. We love it. Stores into itself. It will last generations with just a little care...

Not sure the last sentence is true. I have seen and talked to more than a few "aluminum riveted" camper owners who said that their camper had issues with rivets and leaks. And we have also seen a "fiberglass oval" shaped camper that had a structural crack and leaked. The sun, time and vibration...

It sounds like a custom made solution to me. Especially if you want it to be tiltable in more than one direction. It certainly is doable and if done right, it could be a huge money maker for you. There are plenty of people who would want this not to mention the RVers market.
