Hi listers,

        I’ve been seriously considering taking out my fridg and just using a cooler.  I’d like to know what those who have taken out the frig have for thoughts.

And, if anyone has used the GW elimination kit what their thoughts are. 

My frig works very well but I always have a cooler anyway and the fan noise and heat in the van are detractors. 

I love listening to outdoor sounds not the start and stops of the  running fan.

Also, I as I hope to run my original 1.9 engine for some time the weight reduction probably could not hurt. 

Of course the space would probably fill pretty quickly but hopefully that means less clutter and not more weight.  tips and thoughts appreciated.
