    I drive a Miata.
    Ive had the Rovr 60 for over a year. Love that beast, except for when it needs to be lifted from the garage floor to my tailgate. Maybe I need to start carrying motorcycle ramps. :rofl:

    It replaced my Coleman 100 quart, but with the dry storage organizer and more efficient ice use I don't feel like I lost any room. I actually prefer it over my propane/electric mini fridge in the camper for most trips.

    I don't think the 60 would fit under a tonneau, though, which is a shame.

    Watch this, helped me out even though I haven't bought one yet ha.
    That channel has a bunch of comparison videos that are pretty informative.

    Great video, but people will still spend $300 on a cooler although a $50 cooler will do just as well.

    That’s the 65. I also don’t have the tonneau cover on in the summer because I install ladder racks.

    Some people will for sure. I think there are some other people that may be on the fence about spending $300, then get one of the cheaper ones that are of similar quality.
    Who knows.
    I was originally going to buy a decent cooler, and the more I researched, decided on saving more for a fridge/freezer since it will be staying in my truck, not getting carted around by hand.

    The specs say that the 45 is only 0.5" shorter than the 60, so it's likely out also.

    Glad to hear from another Rovr user and that you like it also. It's amazing to me that the little add ons work so well for what they are. Dry bin is awesome.

    I'm a fan of AO soft coolers also. Cheap, good cold retention, easy to carry, easy to store.

    Same! I'm coming from an old hard Igloo that had no R value at all. This thing works great even motocamping where it is spending all day on the back of my bike soaking in heat. It is living in the Taco these days shuttling beers for boating.

    I'm done with hardside coolers, AO or other softsides are great bang for the buck. So much easier to transport and store.

    Grizzly is nice for the price, pic isn't of a 75 though.
    As mentioned though, you don't want to drag a roto mold cooler around, they're good at what they are designed for, dragging them around is not ideal. This 20 quart is manageable for carrying, but not great. I haven't looked lately, but Grizzly's site used to have good deals on close outside, the one pictured is one I got a good deal, the lid isn't the same exact color, it doesnt have the black speckles, and it dosen't bother me.

    We've got two Lifetime coolers, made in America. The $98-55qt. and $78-28 qt. and have had great luck!
