I use the COLEMAN EXTREME MDL6270 70 QUART SIZE 5-day ice chest which cost around $85 I think it was a few years back.
This does us pretty good keeping ice going. I throw in four bags of ice and then place a clear plastic container with a lid on top of the ice. This keeps things inside the container from getting any water soak.
Keeping ice for 5-days probably isn't doable when you open it the ice chest up to get things out. Definitely get two or three days of still having ice in it.
I keep my ice chest sitting in the tail gate corner of the covered truck bed and try not to keep opening the lid as much as possible... I also keep a blanket over the ice chest as well...
This is just one of those things you have to do when camping - keep replenishing the ice and cokes...
