Honestly, they can keep thier 5000 pound coolers, I’m over the Yeti craze. I have one I never use because it’s so dang heavy. The Coleman 5 day series is fine for my purposes and isn’t nearly as much of a pain in the butt to move. If you want a heavy Yeti type cooler, there are plenty of alternatives out there at half the price. Frankly, for what I use coolers for, I have determined the over engineered coolers arent worth the extra weight in most cases.
They are heavy, but they have their place. I do find myself using the hopper far more than the tundra. just more pratical.
Agree. For me, I dont really need that extra engineering at tailgates or beach--but if I were icing down game on a long hunting trip they probably make more sense. I do really like their tumblers and have several of those. Bought them early on. I also picked up several knock offs from the local HEB grocery store that are really good as well at about half the price.

I have bought and given to family and customers the Wal Mart Ozark Trail tumbler for years. I had some engraved to give away to people.
Here is an example....
I have never had a problem with this tumbler. I paid $7.94 for them vs the $30.00 for the Yeti tumbler. I really couldn't believe people were paying $30 for the Yeti. Here is proof of that. Screw Yeti's overpriced products.

LOL. What's next Salt Life and Harley Davidson telling the NRA to p*ss off too? What will right wing white males put on the back of their trucks now?
But seriously, Yeti has always been a joke. Repeated studies have shown their product to be vastly overpriced and a poorer insulator than far cheaper products. They had one marketing ploy. Build a cooler that a 350 pound man can stand on while fishing. I don't weigh half that, and have limited need to stand on a cooler, even when fishing, so I'm not likely to buy their product.

I like the coolers and feel they work significantly better than anything else out there, especially on long fishing/hunting trips or long days at the beach.
The extras they sell, like tumblers and ****, suck in my opinion.
I wouldn't get caught dead with a f'ing sticker on my car. I've always thought that was dumb.
