Overall, a true (compressor type) refrigerator draws a LOT less power than a Peltier-based cooler like the Coleman and Koolatron. The problem with them is that the startup current is far more than a lighter socket inverter can deliver.
A 12V specific refrigerator like the Truckfridge will run beautifully on a lighter socket.

How do you get access? Seems like an important tool for o/os.
-
Yes how do you gain access? Is all communication done by phone? Is Command the only broker Swift uses? I'm so inquisitive because I'm pondering the O/O route.

Good luck trying to get on it. My friend has been trying to get on it for at least 6 or 7 months, it's nice when you do get on it though you have a lil bit more options when swift has a dead area for freight.

I've been trying to get on it for a year.

Thanks, MsJamie.
The next time I have $500 to drop on a fridge I'll get one.
That is quite expensive, however. -
Oklahoma City...lived here for over three years, so I consider it a second home. Got one more load to finish out my settlement, going west of Baton Rouge, which will make my most successful week for two months @ 2,900 miles. I went back to work after the most regrettable Vegas vacation ever. Due to road closures, icy weather, planner screw ups, and lack of freight in some areas, I was barely managing to knock off 1,500-1,600 miles a week for weeks on end.
Got a question for you guys. Do you have an open line to the planners, so to coordinate together for the next load, or are they invisible to you? I'm out of Lewiston where there aren't planners....I have a curious feeling this is hurting me somehow. -
You're right about the cost but it was worth it for me . Even with fresh batteries I couldn't go 12 hours without my Prostar going to load shed. Its larger capacity than the Coleman but it fits in the hole without eliminating the drawer . The small freezer actually keeps stuff frozen . I recommend it but again , the cost is considerable .Moosetek13 Thanks this.
