We use our fridge a lot. It cools well and makes ice. It works on propane
and 12 VDC. It requires some space planning, but it is nice to have it. If I
had to choose between it and the stove, I don't know which I would rather
have

same here.  on our trip we used a very small cooler effectively, though
we'd've liked to have our larger one with us.  i think as long as we have
the pedestal seat in we'll go on using the fridge (gotta get it running on
propane, though!).  once that's out, and the lad's on the back seat, in
comes the cooler.

where do you buy uht milk?  seems unavailable here in santa cruz...
