A little rich for my blood but it is interesting.

Interesting.
A much less expensive option for some may be a chest freezer used as a fridge: http://www.mtbest.net/chest_fridge.html (http://www.mtbest.net/chest_fridge.html) With an external thermostat, such as what homebrewers use, you can have a super-efficient "fridger" for about $200 total. Running only a few minutes per hour means it will easily run off solar panels through an inverter. I really like this idea, so I'll probably go this route when I start building my interior.
Someone on another bus conversion forum has a fridger that he has partitioned inside; this allows him to have both frozen and chilled food in it. Clever.
