Patti,

The other portable on the GW site is the Engel.  Quite a bit more money, but
a top notch refer.

Cheers,

Jeff

I'm kind of leaning towards a portable.  I like the idea of being able to
bring it along even if I'm in someone else's vehicle.  I also like the idea
of being able to use it right away and not have to wait until I have the
time to install it!

The Truckfridge website is only showing their own brand, but there seems to
be a great special on
portables<http://www.truckfridge.com/portable_models.html>with
shipping included.  They don't display the amp draw for their
portables.  Does anyone know what it is?
