Thoughts?

My thoughts are, I've been wanting something like that since I was a wee lad.... I didn't know this existed and I think I'll pick one up when my truck gets here.

My take is it's a very cool, integrated solution but an awful lot of money to keep a 6 pack cold!

That's really nice, looks like it belongs there. Personally I don't really have much use for it, especially for that price. But that's just me.

Says it won’t fit. Only fits up to 2020 F-150 sadly or it would already be here. Not sure what the difference is or if the work station console matters? Who wants to buy one and find out???? Price has come Down over $50 in week since I looked.

That's a bummer. So the '21 console is different?

I would LOVE to be proven wrong! Someone on a review mentioned that the power may be the issue? The older consoles had a 12v power outlet and newer ones only with USB and USB-C. That would be easy enough to just get a converter though if dimensionally they were the same. Anyone else know anything about the changes? I guess maybe we could just ask Dometic.

Am I to be the Guinea Pig here? Sure would like to know if there are dimensional changes to the console before I buy the fridge and a 12v to USB-C converter!

and a 12v to USB-C converter!

Just in case you aren't joking, USB-C still operates at 5V unless it's USB-C Power Delivery, where it operates at 20v.

Should be 12v for the rear seat cig lighter though.

I thought just some kind of cooler insert would be kinda neat, but then I realized that's just a lunch pail cooler...

Well that sounds like it may be a problem! Not interested unless it’s very close to plug and play.

As soon as they come up with one that fits in the upper glove box and shoots out when I hit an aux switch, I'm in.
