Dinner next to the Snowy River.

I grabbed soup and butter from the fridge in the sub trunk. Heated the soup and toasted bread at the camp kitchen. Enjoyed the simple meal as the sun set, listening to the river.

Happy place.

My 35L Kings fridge is in the sub trunk. It’s powered by the car’s 16V supply, with an outlet available in the boot and driver’s console. The 16V in turn is powered by the car’s massive 60kWh battery. No need to run an engine, with noise and fumes, to keep it going.

Charging

I charged up the car battery earlier today, while parked in Cooma. The hosts here at Snowy River Holiday Park confirmed that in a powered site, I could have plugged in the EV to charge. I instead elected an unpowered site, since it was a nicer spot, closer to the river.

    How are you finding it being close to the roof with the added height?
    When trying to sleep?

    you might've answered this before, but I'm wondering how easy it is to access the recessed storage at the back of the car under the carpet "lid" with the Teraglide in place (where you've got the fridge, I think).

      Mark West Great question. Super easy to access, even with the bed fully set up. When I need to access the fridge, I just lift the Teraglide lid above the fridge. The lid opens with the assistance of two gas struts, so it’s very light, even with the bedding on top.

      When I need the fridge, I usually already have the kitchen drawer pulled out, which otherwise covers the fridge.
