Rubbermaid 150 quart marine coolers

Hey Nipper, I bought the same cooler at Sams club 2 years ago for about the same price. It holds up ok but ice dosent seem to last very long in it. You just have to pack it FULL of ice before you begin your trip. I wash out and freeze gallon milk jugs and keep in the deep freezer, they last a long time and help to fill up that big *** cooler. Saves a little on buying all that crushed ice too.

You southern boys are behind in the times!! I have a comercial Ice Machine in the basement!

MJ, why would you need one of those? Can't you just walk outside and scoop up all the ice you need?

do any of ya'll have the coolers with cushions on top, how do they hold up? I'm thinking of using a couple on my V in place of seats, just wondering if they will hold up, or which brands are better than the others

I bought one several years ago. It was and still is a nice cushion but after about 2 - 3 years the little straps with the snaps on them tore out of the cushion. I took it to an upholstery shop and they wanted an arm and a leg to sew in 4 new straps. I said for that price I can buy a new cushion! I still use it though on occasion. I thought about going with velcro but I don't know how well that would work out.
