    Cooler is a beast. As far as the price, go big or go home! I'm diggin the pics. Once again, thanks mark, these coolers put the yeti to shame. Plus with the discount, the price is great. I just ordered the flashlight and mount, and of course the discount still worked:bananadance:

    I just got mine, I'm on a convoy today. And guess what??? My freaking wife opened the box and got to enjoy the first seconds of its life. I said why'd you do that. Her response "I like opening stuff" she's about to catch these divorce papers :rofl:

    What a great cooler! This is built so well. I don't have a yeti to compare it to but I think this is better. Just like the Jackson kayaks, they put a lot of thought into this cooler. Best thing is the latches. So much easer than the yeti pulls. The cam over design is the heat. I want a 25 now!

    @JimBeam not going to lie my favorite part is the handles too! Worst part is it's going to be a PIA when filling to the top and carrying it to a location such as finding a spot on the beach

    Little things like the handles really do add up to make a better product


    The latches are def awesome too...I like to prop my coolers open to dry and air out and on the RTIC i was using the rubber latches but stopped because they were bending funny so now I have to find something to prop it open when I want to dry it out

    The Orion latches easily support the lid without any fear of damaging the latch

    I agree to this to a t! I do like how the latches are super easy to close rather then when I was playing with a yeti at dicks sporting goods it was like a hassle and you had you use a lot of pressure. But I might buy the smallest one cause this 65 is hugeeeeeeee!!!! And good news is the wife loves it more than me! That's always a plus when spending a lot of money

    No, but the 65 fits under my backflip with about a half inch to spare

    I'm going to take some measurements now, I have that rubber bed mat in the back, and I'm thinking it might be ok. My wife and I were looking at coolers today, so this looks like I can get in on this deal before the closing bell.

    Thank you, I appreciate it. I have a 3rd gen as well, and this looks like the ticket for what we are looking for. Thank you for the prompt pictures. I appreciate it.

    I recommend you measure and look at the published dimension on the web site. Many of the other sizes would not fit under my Rotrax.

    We measured, and based off the published measurements:

    http://orioncoolers.com/our-coolers/

    The 65 was the only one that would fit under the factory cover. We thought about the 45, but it's just a bit too tall.

    I'll be honest, I was hesitant on getting in on this group buy. We looked at coolers today, from the Igloo Sportsman at Sam's club, and the Yeti's at Dick's Sporting Goods. I kept the group buy in the back of my mind, but was hoping for more pictures. The other pictures in this thread, as well as the interior pictures you posted as well as the bed pictures sealed the deal for me. I really appreciate it. Thank you.
