I am so sold on the Engels (I own two 45L units) that it is the first modification I do to a vehicle after good tires and sliders. Also, I live in AZ, so a practical way of keeping food and drinks cool is likely more important that other areas.

I have also used the thermo-electric units and the results were very dissapointing over 70 degrees ambient (they can only cool about 40 degrees below ambient)

The build quality and efficiency of the Engel (Engel, ARB, Norcold) units are without peer as well... It is worth forgoing the new aluminum wheels (or winch, etc.) and getting the fridge IMO...
