    I have named it the big orange eggish. It's 18.1" grate size so it's bigger than your large green egg that's .1 inch bigger all the way around. It comes with an infinity warranty because we dont plan on being around long. Just send us your money and checkout the diagram on our website and that's what you'll get. Don't question it I'm a French model. Qui Qui.

    Guys I found this great new kamado that has thicker walls than the big green egg and it's only half the price if you send me your money now. I should be able to ship them sometime next year maybe if you're lucky. But don't ask me when cause I don't know that. It even comes with fee bitches!
    That looks like it'll be worth the wait. Send me ordering info!!!!

    ramis for me.  Just leave the first letter off and it is the new name brand. Artic to rtic...  Hermapen, YyberQ,  and the AR becomes so cool as just  "R".   Doesn't work so well for the lameboss.     FYI,  this entlemen ack is pretty tasty.

    I received the 2 I ordered and am very impressed with the quality. I am a Pelican guy and they seem small and lighter than Pelicans (which is why I ordered them) but my Yeti friends tell me they seem larger and thicker than the Yetis.

    The lid and the bottoms on my RTIC 65 are definitely thicker than Yetis. I have a Yeti 50 and a Pelican 95. It's kind of hard to make a direct comparison to the Pelican though. All Pelicans are not the same across the board. In their small sizes they say that they are 2" thick. Their mediums say 2 1/2 thick and their large up to 3" in places. With that said, the RTIC and Yeti seem to use the same amount of thickness no matter the cooler size. The Yeti 50 looks to be about 2" thick while the RTIC 65 looks like 2 1/2 thick. I wish I had a Pelican 65 to compare the RTIC 65 to but again, my Pelican is a 95. The RTIC 65 is no doubt thicker than  my Yeti 50 though. I'm glad to hear that you like the RTIC coolers. I haven't had the oppurtunity to use mine yet but I sure like the looks and build quality of them. Hoping that they come out with a 400 or 500 quart version soon.

    This^^^^^^will never happen. Yeti has tried suing everyone out there, including their own mother. But new manufactures are turning out better coolers everyday. Yetis sue happy tactics will not prevail. 


    engal will swoop in with a lawsuit and own them all.

    This^^^^^speaks volumes. Yeti robbed Engel like a thief in the night, but did Engel cry and sue? No sir, they did not. 

    yetis cheap warping covers are an insult to engals origional design.

    Amen brother^^^^^^^^^^^.Yetis robbery and theft of Engels idea in general is an insult. Especially when you consider the inflated price of a Yeti and the fact that they sue anyone who even thinks about making a cooler. 


    ill be sitting on my deck cooking on my kub and taking beers out of my highly collectible hard to get rtic though

    Enjoy that Kub and RTIC. Both are here to stay.

    the big test for me with the rtic wont be the ice holding for 10 days, it will be the cover holding up with me standing on it in the boat =)

    @Lit I hope I don't die drinking out of this Chinese made lowball 

    Those come from the better part of China.
    I love how they put "designed in Austin TX" haha ... Like when a couple guys were sitting around a computer and designed this... There butts were sitting in a chair on the United states... Really makes me feel better.

    but on a positive note, IDGAF of they are made on Mars ... They keep
    my coffee hot for 4 hours.. Might as well be a UFO

    Wow. Reading lots of complaints/cancellations because ship dates have been delayed another month if you log in and check.

    This seems more and more sketch, meanwhile they have hundreds if not thousands of orders that they are collecting interest on.

    I hope it works out, but I am starting to not like the transparency.  Glad I have yet to order, I am in no hurry.

    Prolly less sketch and more overwhelmed.  I doubt they expected the volume of orders they received.  Use mine weekly, but I will wait till they catch up to order two more.

      I love my inferior product that holds more ice and drinks at 1/2 the price.
    As a owner of both brands, I can assure you that the Yeti Killer is not inferior in any way. It's actually thicker than the Yeti.

    order cancelled, not worth the aggravation to me.

    I hope it's me. I ordered a second 65 for Nola that didn't come with the original 3. 
    @SGH I was wondering where that cooler went.  I still want it, if you're willing to sell it to me for cost.   Let me know when it comes in brother Scottie.
