Dometic has been in the mobile living game for over 20 years and millions of RVers, campers, and overland travelers have used their products for essentials needs like cooking, portable power, keeping food fresh, taking care of personal hygiene and maintaining a pleasant temperature on the road. They make products for people who are longing for freedom and adventure, those that have a desire to explore the world and to stay away for extended periods of time.

Fresh food is critical for any extended overland trip and Dometic make some of the best solutions for mobile cooling on the planet. When we started our Ultimate Overland Vehicle Build, we knew we wanted Dometic products on board.
