The trailer itself was around $5,000 and that is with me supplying the wheels.

The added extras inc the stone guard, water tank, and getting the electrics done was about another $1,800.

Really? Never seen one in a unvented box. All the ones I looked at the camper show had venting in one form or another.
Just look at the spec of the first one I looked up.

You WILL have trouble not venting it. Do some research on how a fridge works and you will soon see why it needs it.

The Trak Shak has 2 fridges in it and doesn't have any venting in it.

I am so glad that you have gone to all that effort to educate me about fridge venting and heat build up.

However, after owning my Trak Shak for 2 years, and this trailer for 7 months, I am happy to say I have NEVER had a fridge issue. So once again - I am not concerned.
