    No more water soaked food ,stopping for ice
    or jumping in the river to shower for me.
    Just received my new fancy smancy ARB 50qt fridge
    And my Helton hot shower system should be in this week
    Now I just need to decide which route I'm going to take to run everything
    Dual battery system in the front or run a separate battery from the back of my truck in the camper .
    Kind of like the idea of being able to remove the battery not having to carry the extra weight around when I'm using my truck for daily driving
    Also looking in to the goal zero products i like the versatility they provide
    I ill be going into bear country soon and will have to store fridge in a bear container need a way to power it.i know I can run a cord from the truck battery system if I go that route

    Still researching ,leaving in 3 weeks for Tetons,jelly stone and glacier ntn. Prk
    Need to get on it
    Here's some pics of my storage racks I built yrs ago time to up date them
    racks_544d44d8e35be0fc626bf490d0b49735fe9d83eb.jpg
    Fridge will go in the middle ,battery system will be installed inside on of the storage racks if I go that route
    Cappuccino machine will go on the right storage unit .putting a latch so the back opens and it'll be on a slider . If I can power it with the yeti and decide to go that route
