    I've got a 120qt all terrain.  Heavy loaded up, but the dolly wheels are awesome.  It gets used for the extended Jayco flights, eggfests, holding large amounts of both food and bev.  Works good holding venison while processing, with plenty of space to raise and separate it from the ice.

     On top, there is a smaller access door built in to keep from opening the entire lid all the time, reaching for drinks......another nice feature.

    5 day, is more like, the weekend.  And you'll burn through some ice with this size.

    You have to watch the hinges and latches, they are plastic, and known to break.  Replacements are cheap, and sold at Igloo stocked stores.  With caution, I'm still on my first pairs of each.  

    It's no Pelican, but will easily get the larger weekend jobs done for a Benjamin.

    We live an hour or so from town. We use my old junker ice chest to haul cold stuff home. Looking for something that will make this a bit nerve-wracking for me. We don't put any ice packs in what we are currently using. By the time we get home during the summer months things have warmed up a bit...

    We bought one today. Has plastic hinges...but they are not of the strap type. They have pins....a picture is worth a thousand words....

    I've heard of wind ripping those marine cooler hinges in half, taking the lid completely off.

    Igloo should put them on from the get go IMO, bastards.  

    A worthy, direct fit, screw on, inexpensive, upgrade to get many years of service out of it.
