    I'm sorry , I might have misunderstood you , are you saying this fridge and the Ironman fridge have a better motor than the ARB fridge or this fridge has a better motor than the Ironman fridge ?

    The ARB is different, probably a bit better. However the fridge I have and the Ironman are exactly the same.

    My buddy got his used for a fraction of that, I think it cost him less than my Snug Top cost me.

    Its just above Afton Canyon and to the east of the big railroad bridge.

    Thanks guys. It was an epic trip. Covered about 4-500 miles. Spent 5 days in DV. Went from panamint valley through ballarat, up to Briggs cabin, back down out and through saline valley via south pass, warm springs, up Steele pass, past eureka valley/ dunes, though north pass, and out through Big Pine. Was a great trip. Look forward to doing it again
