Ok I bought some seat covers to keep my seats clean from the kid and ex old lady. They are pretty well made and I plan to install them Sunday. I will add pics then. I also got my dash cover too but i am not installing that till I paint the truck. I got my 12v Cooler and heater this thing is so freaking neat.

52 quart Koolatron, cools 45 to 50 Fahrenheit degrees below the ambient temperature. And I just checked to see how man cans of... um soda pop It will hold and it holds 80 12 oz. cans

Those type of coolers are great but remember that they can and will kill the battery. I think in a single battery setup it would take about 8 hours to kill it to a no start situation

I had to install a battery tender to keep my fridge from draining the batteries, last time I left it it took a fuul 48 hours to get to the point where the tender killed the power to the fridge.

I haven't used one of those in years. I put a fridge into my truck instead. A friend was using one in a work pickup and it killed the battery in a day. Both of those were older models. Do the newer ones use less juice, or are more efficient? I still have an old one in the garage.

well I got it for a super trip 20 days. It has a AC converter set up so I can take it in a motel. Just thought it would be a good way to save some cash on food. Buy milk, eggs and meat at a store and fix it on grill or the propane stove. This was to be a road trip out west but all is on hold right now.

I used a ice chest several years ago to go to Sturgis, SD and that was a mess the food got wet and didn't keep it very cold. Also my son is on insulin and it has to be refrigerated. 70% of the time the truck would be running except to go to places like mount Rushmore and that is a thirty min thing.

For that it should be fantastic. It sucks getting up in the morning and having a dead battery. If your going back to Rushmore and coming through Minnesota on I-90 let me know its like 90 minutes away.

This won't help with medications but; ice chest tip. Get a 4-6 inch deep tupperware that will fit on top of the ice/water.
If something needs to stay frozen, I get a dispo styro chest and use dry ice, and tape it shut.
