There is a sale on Amazon for the RTIC 45. It's a good cooler and is a competitor to the more expensive YETI.
I got mine months ago for 190 shipped. It's on sale for 122 on amazon.

Darn, I wished i had waited. To be fair, RTIC has a notorious reputation for taking months to ship their items.
Basically order today and expect it 3 months from now, so just be warned. Deal with the inconvenience for a pretty
decent cooler and a low cost.

If you prefer the tan color they have it on their website for the same price.  although on amazon they seem to have calculated the sales tax incorrectly so you'll save some money going through amazon. The 20 and 65 sizes are on sale as well.

amazon has the 45 tan as well
https://www.amazon.com/RTIC-Cooler-45-Tan/dp/B01M1OJO3B
65qt $139.99
https://www.amazon.com/RTIC-Cooler-65-Tan/dp/B01LYFEWQ0/

save like $4 in calculated tax by ordering through amazon instead of directly through RTIC according to my amazon calcs - somehow they're calculating tax wrong on amazon which is good for us.

I've been needing a good fishing ice chest. Thanks for the tip.

It shipped an hour after I ordered it! :smt003

Damb it, I don't have the money for that, but I had to order the 45. Probably wouldn't be able to get one at full price, or maybe I'm too cheap :smt044.

There are many youtube comparisons and test. You would just need to do a quick google search; but consesus is not much
difference but the price, warranty and customer service. You are giving up a better warranty, and customer service a very similar product.
I've been relatively happy with my cooler. I have a YETI hopper 20 and an RTIC 45. Both are great coolers.
I use the 45 for multiday trips and the 20 for day trips.
