Just took this a few minutes ago. 9am and just a small amount left. Granted it was in the 50s last night.

I know it might seem trivial and gimmicky to most, but this actually is a really great idea for tailgaiting anywhere. Mobile cooler. Don't have to remove anything. Don't even have to clean up or drain it! So awesome.

@Tesla: We’re waiting on the model Y comparison.

Tesla doesn't have a drain. All the water is stored in the rear bumper to be jettisoned later.

Ahhh. A ballast tank. Not a terrible idea if you need floatation later.

After about 5 and a half hours this is what I have left. As you can see the beer is still cold. For reference, the three compartments with ice were filled to the top.

We have a road trip planned for later this month, and were just this morning discussing doing something like this. Your test results solidified our decision to give it a go. Thanks!

One word of caution. If you plan to leave the ice in the frunk until it melts, don't forget about it and park in the garage or you'll end up with a puddle to clean up.
Also, don't try to evade the police when your Frunk is full of ice. They'll just follow the water trail. ?

We are going to Las Vegas this July so I plan to fill the frunk with beef stew and let it slow cook all the way to Vegas. By the time we get there in the evening it should be hot and ready to eat.

Just make sure to plug the drain with a potato.
