I'm still in the beginning stages of my expo build, but my gf and I are planning a two-week trip to Yellowstone this July (plans to travel Turkey got cancelled). I've been contemplating buying a fridge/freezer, and this would be an ideal trip to have one along, but right now I'm still researching them and the cost is a bit prohibitive. Does anyone know of a company that rents these fridges out? I've seen one company that claims to, but it's on contingency to buy and the price is higher than other places. Or, is there anyone in the MN/WI/IA/ND/SD area who would be willing to rent theirs out for around $100?
Renting and ARB/Engel/Waeco Fridge?

We do but in Utah, a bit of a jaunt.

No contingency to buy, but a portion of your rental fee goes towards a fridge if/when you decide to purchase. I'd guesstimate that 1/3 of renters eventually buy a fridge.

Do you guys have any used ones for sale? Scratch and dent? Tanks.

Nothing right now... this is busy season for rentals. This last weekend we had fridges in Nevada, Mexico and 3 in Moab. I had my personal fridge rented out last weekend
Do you ship? Or would that be too cost prohibitive? I could see doing a 2wk rental if shipping wouldn't be too bad...

We can ship but is surely takes the luster off of the price given the size and weight. Shipping each way to MN would be ~$65 I'm guessing?

Best solution: buy an ARB 50 - you'll never regret it.

I just sent them an e-mail. Steve's a great guy and he's helped me in the past, so maybe we can work something out! Thanks for the info.

Id say the same thing about my Engle MT45. Love it. One of the best purchases I ever made.
I have no experience with Waeco but as far as ARB or Engle, IMO, pick the size you want and just buy one. You wont regret it at all.

Just keep a keen eye out. I got my Waeco on ebay cheap cause it was a made for ford model and DC only. Truck fridge sell a unit with a danfoss compressor that also looks nice. At less than 400 mine has paid for itself quick. Bags of frozen water are rather expensive and it adds up quick. If you will be sleeping next to the unit the Engel is certainly louder than a danfoss compressor. Also Engel has no low voltage cut out. Low voltage disconnect is really important if you like having your engine start... I learned that one the hard way
