Honestly I'm not entirely sure how its intended to be used. The big bin would make the most sense for ice. I believe the Coleman badge is the wrong way because it can be used horizontally or vertically.
I carry the usual tools and have added ignition coil packs to my LX470 load out. My 80 series was fairly predictable regarding maintenance, but the 100 series coil packs (in my case) seem to go bad without notice. They are easy to replace if the need arises. I also bought a cheap code reader...
If you don’t need a tilt I would recommend looking at computer server racks. My Dometic bolted right up. $85 for a slide rated to 150 pounds is much better that what the fridge folks are offering 😁
I purchased a Dometic CFX-55 last year for our trailer and also noticed a price jump this year. The new Dometic CFX is a single unit fridge with a built in ice maker. Regardless of what you have the fridge set at you will also have ice available. In my opinion thats worth a little more coin...
I prefer 2.5 gallon buckets. They can be stacked to take up less space while traveling. The big advantage is the ability to use sand water or rocks once on site so you don't have to move a bunch of weight around until needed.

I just picked up a 20volt Dewalt saw. It has no issue ripping through the green ash we have and the 5ah batteries I have last a surprisingly long time.
I used to use a Hiker Pro and it is indeed a great filter. However, a couple of years ago I switched to a Sawyer Squeeze and have no regrets. It only weighs a couple of ounces and does the job perfectly.

I was going to go the Wits End route when the fridge was in my FJ80. However, now that I have it in the teardrop with a dedicated space (less likely to be bumped) I haven't seen the need for the SB50 connector. Additionally the cord runs more than the slide cost me which is a little tough to...
You are not wrong there. All I can say is that my Dometic CF-35 was run 24/7 for 3 years as an office fridge and has spent the past 2 years being used from time to time in my trailer and truck with zero issues.
Montana Canvas - Wedge Tent I will throw one more in the mix. My family and I have been using a wedge tent for the last 4 years. It has withstood 80 mph wind gusts and I can set it up by myself in less than 20 minutes including the stove. Let me know if you want "action" shots... I have...
I use a Montana Canvas Wedge tent when camping with the family, a dome tent when I'm buy myself, and a Henery Shires Tarp Tent when Back Packing which also serves backyard camping duty for my daughter .
For breakfast I like the Straw Propeller (or similar) oatmeals. They are tasty, light and just need some hot water to be ready to eat. Other than that I tend to bring Mountain House and Jerky.
