New cooler
 
http://www.rticcoolers.com. Saw these on Instagram and checked em out looks exactly like a yet but literally half the price. They look a tad bit thinner though.

marty f 07-15-2015 09:03 PM

Patt 07-15-2015 09:26 PM

How about holding ice? :)

Patt 07-15-2015 09:37 PM

That's an added bonus lol. It's so hot that I don't care how many grizzly bears or bigfoots it can handle no Yeti or any other chest out there is gonna keep ice for 3 days much less a day

Your right. Those expensive coolers don't do any better than a coleman extreme of even a basic marine igloo cooler. My K2 isn't impressive and my buddies yeti isn't worth the money either.

No different than $300 sunglasses and a $50 pair. All about sportin the bling more than anything else.

Patt 07-15-2015 09:45 PM

I do agree that they don't hold ice any longer than the classic Ol white igloo. The main reason I own yetis is because you can't hurt em and mine go through hell.

Good lookin out! Just reserved the 20qt for the backseat of the truck.

I have a K2, and I have to agree, not impressed:rolleyes:

I have a pelican as well, and Id say it was money well spent! It holds the ice for days in the heat! As well I use it as a casting stand too!!

Paid $209 for a Pelican 35qt, love it but it is sooooooooo heavy.

Lake Chuck Duck 07-16-2015 09:10 AM

They definitely ripped off the yeti design but I'm down with the price. Cooler companies like these are a dime a dozen these days. Just getting coolers from asia and slapping their logo on it.Yeti really has no business keeping their prices so noncompetitive when they are no longer running a monopoly on the market. When they were the only premium cooler out there sure charge what ever you want

An empty 65qt weighs 36lbs!!!! That's insane. I wish coleman or igloo would make a better cooler and just charge more. I would pay $100 for a better quality cooler.

Marty, that yeti full of reds must have weighed 200lbs.

Don't put as much beer in it!!!

Natural Light Kid 07-16-2015 10:22 AM

Please keep us posted on these ice chests. I've yet to dive into the premium cooler market due mostly to price. This one is close enough to make it interesting.
