Onto the kitchen gear! I'll start with the most important piece of equipment. The stainless steel National Luna 40 liter fridge/freezer from Equipt Expedition Outfitters. Needless to say the fridge is absolutely awesome! Now I'll be able to store food for much longer periods, especially in other countries were food is fresh and has no preservatives. Then there's the handy always cool beverage while camping. :D While bench testing I set the thermostat to -30 Celsius then hit the turbo button. The fridge cooled down very quickly.
Inside are three baskets making the lower portion easily accessible.
The fridge's home will be behind the passenger seat. This will give me easy access while sitting in the driver seat. The fridge comes with a 120 volt and 12 volt plugs. The 12v cord has a Hella style connector on one end. This plugs strait into the National Luna power pack
The National Luna 40L is a perfect fit even with the passenger seat slid back and the fridge's lid open. Since I'm unable to use the slide tray that normally secures the fridge, I'll have to make a custom mount.
With having a fridge comes carrying bottles, so I picked up a classic style bottle opener and mounted to the trucks bed.
The stove I'll be using, like many, runs on propane. Since I don't want to jungle tons of small canisters I picked this 5lb tank with aluminum bracket from Adventure Trailers.
I then mounted the propane tank on the inside of AT Flippac near the cooking area I made on the bumper.
I found a propane line that connects to the standard US propane bottle fitting and the stoves fitting. Unfortunately I wasn't able to find a long enough line to use my stove mount.
