    That would get real hot in summer here in Texas. I wish there was some elevation to go up closer to Austin, but its just not there

    I went to Cal Poly SLO too. I really miss the Central Coast sometimes. I need to get back out there soon.

    The issue is British Columbia is too big. There are places that are totally doable year round but you have to drive 10-15 hrs lol. Usually the southern Coast is super mild and it just rains but this year we took a beating. Never in my life have I had to chain up to drive in the city (my freightliner). I've also been wrenching way too much on the truck and having it down for over a month whilst my coilovers got rebuilt twice didn't help either

    It's still there. I miss the place sometimes but choosing places to retire to it isn't at the top of the list.

    Would not stick to the fridge. Had to find some place to put it! Ended up having to cut it so it would not be covered up by the strap lol.

    I have the same fan, I cut the AC brick off and put it on a cigarette lighter outlet in the back, no batteries needed!

    I'm a SLO grad, as well. I return every chance I get.

    I'm probably one of the few people in the world that went to both Cal Polys and UCSB. UCSB was definitely the most enjoyable.

    Does anybody use a fridgeslide with a cooler or would that be sacrilege? Haha

    I realized how annoying it was to load/unload my cooler constantly this weekend and last. I'd love to be able to slide it out to drain it and grab things out of it.

    I'm just now getting to the rear cargo set up. 3rd row of seats should be coming out soon and I think I'm going to line the whole area with linex or another type of bedliner to make a small bed back there.

    Do it. One day you'll want a fridge and you'll love that you already have a slide
