RTIC Coolers

damn it! so much want!

Taking care of business.... then i'll see whats left over.

 

Yeah they do weigh a ton, a buddy has the 150 quart pelican, weighs 80+ lbs empty, once it's filled it's not moving.

 

Yeah... place it where you want it then fill. It's not a "carry down to the beach" cooler. Mine stays in the back of my truck when full.

 

This needs to be taken into serious consideration.

Some places I go have bear boxes that the forest service requires you put all food/coolers/etc.

 

Received my 65 and 30oz tumblers Monday. I just seen they lowered the price of the 65 to 139.99. I purchased at 169.99 less than a week ago. messaged them to ask if they would price match or even offset the 30 dollars with two 10oz tumblers. Nope. kinda sucks as I seen the lower price as I was recommending someone else to purchase the cooler.

 

Seriously. I thought about buying the RTIC 45 when I got an alert that it dropped in price. But I can't justify spending that much money on a cooler. I can buy a decent Coleman for a fraction of that which for my needs, is more than enough. And if it breaks... I can buy a few more and still be under the cost of an RTIC with only a 30 day warranty.

 

anyone have pictures of the 45 and 65 in the bed of their trucks? for visualization?

 

Sorry its dark



This is the 45

 

Got something cold in thar?

 

45 in Tan just ordered

 

Pelican for the win! Return it. Lol j/k man enjoy it

 

The 65 does fit in the bed of our trucks, must say this is a nice cooler for the money.

 

45 with an HF cargo bar. Had ice after 4 days

 

Is it normal for them to come in with nicks, scratches, etc.? Or did I get a dud?

 

Mine had a nick but i dont if it was from sittin in the bed while wheelin

 

I must say the non existent packaging was a surprise, going to get some dings when they just throw it in a box with no packing material besides a plastic bag.

 

just ordered a 45. Thanks for the tip

 

I just ordered a 65 and a 20. I have wanted a new cooler for a long time and I could not pass up the prices. $139 and $100.

 

I have the soft 20 or whatever it's called. I use it for lunch and keep it in my car all day. It's way too big and bulky for a regular lunch box but does it's job. And you have to lube the zipper like weekly.

 

I shit canned the idea of a Pelican which is the top of the heap, but unless you have a topper or aren't paying attention to the dimensions- they are all too tall to fit in a bed with a tonneau. Focused on RTIC, and shit canned that after a buddy lent me a Yeti Tundra 45 for a camping trip that barely held ice longer than my Coleman and was 3x as heavy. It saved me $2 worth of ice for the extra $350 it cost- nah, no, hell no.
Then I looked at the new RTIC repop of the Yeti Flipper, I got the RTIC SoftPak 30. Killer cooler, waterproof zipper, and light as hell that keeps ice plenty frozen for a 3 day weekend. Good enough for me. If I was fishing out to the Gulf Stream and back over 4 days or hunting moose for a week, than I'd consider the rotomolded stuff that would stay on a boat or a camp lodge and not move...
