Might have been covered, but can you / do you have the ability to install a Partner Stove in the slider below the fridge slide?
I'm just wanting to get the stove in a perm mounting solution Vs. it taking room up in the truck.....I know 1st world problems...
Thanks,
John
Hi John- here is an excerpt from a writeup I did for this forum a while back. I get this question a lot...
"I am aware that some companies use this space under the fridge for mounting a stove. I didn’t do this for a few reasons. First, having your stove mounted to the rig when you’re miles from nowhere just doesn’t seem prudent. Second, the work surface is much more useful day to day, and is more likely something that you would want to deploy quickly vs. a stove. Normally if you are going to use a stove to cook you are staying a while, so you have time to get it out. My solution for those that really want the stove attached to the system is the Aux Work Station. It quickly attaches to the large drawer and will hold a stove. That way you have the best of all worlds- stove on the system yet easily removed in case of a fire, and full access to the prep surface."
A partner stove fits inside the shallow drawer, so it doesn't take up any more space in the truck than if it were mounted there. There is also the added benefit of using the shallow drawer for other things, i.e. guns, cameras, etc. when your trip's mission isn't straight camping.
