Sounds like you have a pretty nice trailer. Best advice I can give is DO NOT DO IT. Your resale value will drop more than the cost of a fridge. You will need 110 from shore or genny. How will you keep it in place? How will you keep the door closed? Price shop for an RV fridge. Just my take on it. I know they are spendy
Hmmm, I would think just the opposite actually. I suspect most would want a residential fridge in a large unit like that. I think if I were looking at a large rig and it didn't have a residential fridge I would be building in a budget to make the conversion. Keeping the door closed is easy as all of us who have made the conversion have found out. Lots of ways to do it. Keeping it in place is also easy with a variety of methods employed by many RV manufacturers, and last but not least, power on the road has not been an issue for the many residentials in RV's out there. Usually two extra batteries, an inverter, some solar panels if dry camping is planned. They don't use that much power nowadays. Yah, a few hurdles to overcome but no show stoppers. All this JMHO of course.
