Been watching a few youtube videos and reading reviews, some mixed feelings on various coolers. Looking for something that keeps ice for at least 5 days. and can hold 2-4 days worth of food. Been looking at Yeti, Grizzly, Pelican and Orca and I think the 40-50 qt coolers would be big enough. Looking for the opinions from the fine experts on TCG.
What do you use when you need to get away from civilization?
I'm unsure how/where you'll be using this... but i was thinking about this thread this morning and something that excites me 20x more than my pelican cooler, is my truckfridge.
so im unsure if this will be in a vehicle for you like camping possibly- but it's likely that it won't be... i just figured id mention how awesome these things are.
tons of brands out there of course- i have a pseudo "knock off" one from these guys:

I got it with some coupon code for ~$450 shipped I think. It works crazy well. My truck has two batteries which are isolated from eachother and the fridge has a voltage shut off to stop pulling power once the battery hits a certain level- i wish i could get rid of this because i dont really care that i drain that battery, but even still, in the bed of my truck, in my cap, in the sun, and the heat, the fridge will stay cold and running for at least ~4 days or so when its hot out without my truck running or anything.
I never thought id use it and love it as much as i do but it's way more useful to me than the pelican cooler i have for my specific situation. I typically leave it half stocked with water/soda and a few beers. The uses are pretty endless though- a silly thing is we wind up grocery shopping somewhere or buying something that must stay cold... instead of rushing home, toss it in the fridge and it's fine for as long as i want... never have to buy ice for it... never have to do anything.
