Well why expend all that energy beating on it all day with a little hammer when you could hit it once and be done

I've had a 2013, 2014 Cascadia and a 2016 Freightliner Evolution ....no difference in their cabinet size at all from year to year once so ever. They even stuck with their CHEAP plastic handles on every cabinet that like to snap. In the 2014's & 16's they again cheap out and this time omit the overhead storage nooks above the driver's & passengers side doors. Let's see, what else...Stereo speakers suck & were downgraded 2014 & after and not enough quality insulation around the bunk. (All years) Another thing I noticed with the cabinets is that there were no shelves in any of them... Hope this helps.

Wouldn't bfh kinda splatter what your tryin to fit in the hole? Too much porn on the 65 in flat screen wedged under the top bunk. My bad.

Btw, can you go online and download an operators manual & see if cabinet dimensions are speced inside? Because mine didn't have shelves I had planned to build custom shelves for the cabinet behind the drivers seat. Don't quote me, but I think I remember the interior width of the cabinet being like 18 inches across.

What good is a mini fridge for other than keep soda cold?
That bottom cabinet comes out and a college dorm fridge with a modest real freezer for hamburger and steaks and ice cream. The door will hold a 12 pack of cans by itself,.. then still room for veggies, lunchmeat, potato salad, cheeze, ketchup, mustard, that large jar of sweet pickle, tomotoes etc.
The Microwave will stay on top of the fridge with sticky velcro tape. Just use an old towel to keep the rotating dish from rattling while going down the road. Forman or hibachi grill and thats how we roll.
Truck stop food is for the poor company guys. We need to eat real food.
I mean, I can make a hot ham with melted cheese in under 2 mins on the forman grill.
If you ever saw me in real life,.. there is no mistaking a man that likes to eat.
Never trust a bald barber or a skinny chef.

This week I'll be taking out the cabinet behind the passenger seat in my 2015 evo and building a cabinet to hold my dorm fridge with freezer, toaster oven and microwave along with creating a storage area with a shelf that is useful and not an open space like it is now. Once I'm done, I'll post some pictures on here.

Amazon warrantees are factory/manufacturer warrantees.
Ask me how many laptops, kindles, chargers, and doodads I've had to send back to a manufacturer bc my mother in law and sister in law buy #### off amazon.
2 weeks minimum turn around, you have to send all components, regardless of what actually broke. Then they fix or replace and send it back (usually shy several pieces that they demanded accompany the return!) sometimes with a bill if they determine it was excessive user abuse.
