Freezer? No. But a cold drink on a hot day makes a big difference.

Pending acceptanceIf you aren't harvesting ice from local mountains, you aren't overlanding. Heck, if you did not gather those mushrooms off the side of a tree to make a bland tasting soup and instead packed some ground beef that you put in a dometic fridge, you are not overlanding. The spirit of overlanding is in the dysentery. PBJ is an acceptable alternative for all meals off trail.
However, if you feel the need to run a fridge all night, might I suggest a 2 battery setup so you only risk killing the battery hooked up to the fridge and don't find yourself stranded?

Definitely something to be aware of. Can't even push start the manuals like the good old days.However, if you feel the need to run a fridge all night, might I suggest a 2 battery setup so you only risk killing the battery hooked up to the fridge and don't find yourself stranded?
In Canada, we just leave our windows rolled down.Yes, how else are you supposed to keep your ice cream solid?
Ditto. Dry ice in a decent cooler. Wrap the dry ice in something as simple as paper grocery bags. Have been on cross-country treks week+ at a time with perishables before needing to replenish it.Dry ice in a cooler can keep things frozen for days. Even in Death Valley using cheap coolers.
Lol the whole skottle debate hasn't manifested on here. YET.Of course you need a fridge and a death spork and a skottle.
A good rotomolded cooler can also keep ice for a week. We can go 10- 27 days on river trips too, but not everyone can manage that well.
Here are some universal tips: Ice Academy
Have fun with the build.
