I first got the GPS with lap top mount chingadera! Then I got the fridge. Should have been the other way around.

I've had a variety of GPS systems over the years and they all suck in one way or another. IMO, no need to spend that kind of money that they want for that unit.
I agonized over spending money on an ARB fridge for years, but this summer I broke down and got one. I should have done this years ago. It is by far the single greatest accessory I've added, next to my OBA system. I've only had it in the truck twice so far and each time I open it I smile.
My wife likes to keep it on our enclosed porch for an extra fridge when we have company. A total win-win for me. Can't say that about anything else in my truck.

Yeah. I am completely sold now. The idea my wife had was to take the truck, go shopping in BFE, find a wine/cheese/food we want and not be able to get it knowing we had a long trip or drive ahead. NO MORE!

I got it unwrapped this week, waiting on an adapter (it is an aussie AC plug) to use in the truck on the inverter till I hard wire it DC. The look and feel is outstanding. Well built, solid (50 lbs!) and included the insulated bag.
Fridge is much better.
I have a $10 phone app (Backcountry navigator) that has pretty much made my gps superfluous.
Once you start traveling with a fridge, you will wonder how you ever managed without one.

Fridge. Do iphone maps work when out of cell range?
Have had my Norcold/Engel fridge for about 5 years now and would buy another tomorrow if mine crapped out. Bought to keep my little guy's Insulin cold on long trips, but works great for everything else as well! Really nice not having to worry about ice. You'll get spoiled quickly.
