Is it OK if I strap my refridgerator in my passenger seat?

Got my secured in my upper bunk with a bungee.

 

I used a Coleman 12v cooler on and off for about 7 years with no problem.

 

If it doesn't block your view, should be okay. Might need a pretty big inverter to run it though. My Coleman is going on 3 1/2 years with no problems. A fridge would be better, but don't think company allows a big enough inverter. Good Luck

 

You can what you want but if that thing starts flying around in a wreck I wouldn't it hitting me !!

I aint trusting my life to a bungee cord!!! I secure everything like my life depends on it because in case of a sudden stop or roll over it does! I see no sense in being able to survive the wreck just to be killed by my toys flying into my skull!!!

I guess I don't want my headstone to read he was OK till he was hit in the head by his PS3 lol. How do you explain the Coleman cooler emblem dent on your husbands forehead ?

I am amazed at the stuff I see truck drivers just throw in their trucks !!! You secure your freight so it wont kill you or someone else you should do the same with the junk in the cab. Bungee's are not safe at all !!! strap it down like it is a load on a flat bed!!!

Sorry old man rant !!! Just something to think about though.

 

i would not put anything on the front jumper seat, due too the company ins reasons, next would be more for a dot probale cause at weigh station, take the junk out the ref hole and put it there, i myself just used a small cooler, then on way in too shipper , stop quik buy ice at c -store and go too shipper, then when melted bottle the water for a quik wash, does it get old doing that , yes, but if your burning up socket plugs then that telling you its doing it job, the plug, i used and bought all that junk in the truckstop, then i bought a decent inverter had company wire it, with the kit i bought for it, set me back i think like $256 but no more burnt up plugs and i ran most stuff i bought from home , my coffer maker, a full size desk top pc ect and of course my mattress heating pad

 

We have one driver that puts his frig. on the pass. seat. Gone through a few of them too, blocks his vision somewhat. Nothing has ever been said. Seat looks like crap!
I use a Coleman 12 volt and have had to replace the plug on the cord to a heavier one, since then no problems in over a year! Another driver switched from a frig. to a Coleman too, works better for him too. We have 4500 watt inverters in the trucks, the frig. the drivers used just don't hold up to the road vibrations.
Coleman for me---

 

Blocking your vision would be a serious problem. Strapping the fridge to the seat would seem to block air flow around the fridge. That is not a good idea. Fridge moving on the seat will likely tear up the seat. Also not a good idea.

.If you can raise the fridge above floor level and allow air flow around and underneath the fridge seems to be the best answer. Maybe a plywood base with blocks secured to the plywood to elevate the fridge above floor level would seem to provide superior air flow. Just a thought.
