Hey guys, I'm wanting to put a fridge in the back of my 2001 xterra, it already has the 12v outlet on the driver d pillar I'm just wondering what the amperage rating of that outlet is. The fridge I'm looking at is a 43 qt edgestar that is advertised as drawing 5.4 amps. So does anyone know what kind of amp draw that rear outlet can handle? I really appreciate it.

I think you should be fine. That outlet may share the same fuse as other outlets in your truck. Are you running any other high load appliances like an inverter on another outlet as well?
