Those Coleman thermoelectric coolers theoretically cool 40 degrees below ambient, which means the truck must always be running with the AC on full-blast to maintain food-safe temperatures in the cooler if you're in a hot area of the country, which is virtually everywhere in the U.S. in summertime.
The only way to ensure food safety is an actual 12 volt refrigerator/freezer with a compressor or an ice chest. I've been wondering if those expensive Yeti ice chests would be the best bet if you only had to buy ice every five days. -
Change companies; work for a company that has APU and refrigerator already installed.

All of these have been great suggestions. To make it clear yea i am a brand new driver and as such i was never expecting to get a new truck. However i was under the impression that i would at least get some more features then just a steering wheel and some windshield wipers. I guess that's what i get for assuming lol. But the truck runs good for the mileage it has and it has a new memory foam mattress that's comfortable to sleep on, so I'm not complaining much. I'm purely just looking for suggestions for cold food storage.

Amps x volts = watts. If you have a 1200 watt inverter, if you divide 1200 by 120 volts you get 10 amps. You can have a refrigerator that draws up to 10 amps. Somewhere on the appliance it should tell you the amperage draw/(useage).
