TIL that Schwan’s shut down its operations. 

From Wikipedia:

Schwan's Company's former subsidiary, Schwan's Home Service, rebranded as Yelloh in 2022, remained a privately-held, independent entity owned and operated by the Schwan family. Yelloh, which traced back to the Schwan's home delivery business launched by Marvin Schwan in 1952, sold frozen foods from home delivery trucks, in 13 states. In November 2024, it shut down its operations.[1]

Great prices on the trucks , but what can you use the box for ?

It seems the Freezer box would be worth as much as the truck if it was legal to use in a  bar or resturant !

There has to be some kind of car part/component that you can upcharge someone if it's delivered cold, right?

And if it was a Ford factory install or some local company ?

Not even sure if Ford had a factory propane set-up !

If they were closer I would unironically own one just to have a mobile refrigerated box to drive to construction job sites in the summer out here in Phoenix.

Roush did some propane conversions that were sold through Ford with a factory warranty.  If these are Roush units then converting to gas would require, injectors, fuel rails, fuel tanks and pumps and a gas ECU.
