"Frigrite" is the US branch of a UK company "Frigleft"
"Frigmobile" is simply "The Mile High Club" for single travellers!
Seriously though, "Frigrite" is an Australian refrigerator display manufacturer.
And "Frigmobile" would appear to be an Australian (again!) Refrigerated Transport Company.

I must say though, I do prefer some of the other definitions :)
Further updates on the 'friging' trucks...Well, they're not foreign to me, but are to you, I am in Australia, and an Australian, but keep forgetting this is an English site because so many of these types of forums are American and y'all write like normal people.
See, I had previously thought that the term 'frig' was simply a swear word, but it seems now obvious that it is in fact an alternative to a word that rhymes with the end half of firetruck.
This adds even more gristle to the issue. Interesting to note that 'Frigmobile' answer the phone "Hello, Transport", while 'Frigrite' are cheeky enough to say "Fridge-right".
Also, I have devoured all of Red Dwarf and always wondered if Smeg kitchen appliances get a chuckle from you Brits?
(And no-one here says 'gidday mate' unless they're 60 or Steve Irwin).
