    Was going to buy the fridge from Wil over at Sierra Expeditions because he is the man when it comes to that kind of stuff and I try to support my two local shops when possible, but one of the other shops over on ExPo has the 50qt for $100 off, plus free shipping and no sales tax. Hard to beat

    Thanks for the invite Don! I'll have to make the next trip. I stayed on my night sleep schedule this weekend so I wasn't even awake until when you guys would have been back.




    On another Note picked this up from Sierra Expeditions today :D

    So drawers aren't happening anymore as I don't think they will be the best option for me. It makes the fridge too high and if I need to carry something they will get in the way.

    I am going to have Tommygun Fab cut one of these out for me and I'll mount the fridge slide on one side and I'll add the tie down tracks to the other side for my gear.

    We have our drawer in the back of the FJ and put the fridge behind the driver seat for more storage in the rear of the truck.
