You've probably seen this article before, but I've been searching the web and there are several articles that claim that one or both side storage bins are specially insulated to allow the side storage bins to work as an ice cooler and to keep drinks cold.
From the USA Today Article:
"Storage cubbies are sunk into the space between the cargo bed's inner and outer walls. One of those cubbies is insulated and works fine as a small ice chest, keeping drinks frosty through a half-day's test drive and longer."
Wet Apple
"There?s also lockable, insulated storage containers with a drain built in between the bed and outside sheet metal in case you need to transport something cold."
Canada.com
"And despite a complete lack of refrigeration, the well-insulated compartments did indeed keep a bag of ice intact through a whole day of motoring through the incredible heat of the Anza-Borrego desert of Southern California where we flogged the Avalanche."
Jacksonville.com
"Two insulated lockable storage wells reside in the back of the rear fender's inside and outside walls, with drains so you can use them as moving integrated coolers."
Some of these articles really make you wonder if the reviewer has any idea what it is they are reviewing.
