three years ago we spent a good deal of time and effort researching coolers .... there are several good brands out there, all of the really good ones are expensive .... we spend the summer in South Dakota where we have access to some of the finest steaks on the planet .... over the years we have shared them with friends who asked us to bring back some for them .... when we got home two days ago, after 3+ weeks on the road we had over a thousand of dollars worth of steaks in our Yeti Tundra 160 .... it is mounted on a carrier on the back of our camper so it is exposed 24/7 .... starting with it precooled, we added the steaks and filled it with ice .... that was the last time we had to buy ice .... our small ice maker we use in the camper was able to provide us with all of the replacement ice needed .... can you buy cheaper, yep .... can you buy better, I don't think so
