    I've been hoping rtic would do well since I first seen them posted. I want one of those 20s. But i don't really need it. So I'll hold out. it won't be long till the market will be flooded. I am thinking about maybe getting one of the polar soft sided. At Texas Ranger games you can bring food and drinks in one as long as it not beer. They're one of the only stadiums that allow it.

    I'm in the same boat, Scott. I want a 20 for youth baseball season. Wound up ordering 2 24 poplars for $100. I'll keep one in the trunk for trips to the meat processor.

    I have been looking for somewhere to dump my ashes when I clean out my eggs that won't rust. I know some of you are disappointed you got the Chinese knock off just cause I know most of you wont settle for less than the best. I will give you half of what you paid but you have to pay shipping and I don't mean the your ash storage device will be here in 90 days shipping I want it this year. Let me know I need to clean my eggs soon.

    @lit that's funny right there. Made me chuckle. You know yeti is made in the Philippines right? Unless you special order it? Ain't nothin  made in the good Ole USA anymore. Cept  rockwood.

    @cazzy - I owe you a apology for trolling on your post. I will cease now. Just bored my friend. On a serious note, I hope that everyone who ordered the coolers enjoys them. 
    Never mind @SGH    Thanks for the childish image though.  Keep peddling your knock-off products though.

    That and they are tied up in their legal battle.  Better get them while you can because they may not be available...well, since they aren't readily available now they may be even less available than they are today.  Of course after you account for your money tied up for 5 months your "yeti killer" is approaching the cost of the original. 
    Custom Guns/Knives require long waits.    As to tying $$ up for a few months,  it was less than $200.   I didn't have investments that pay enough to NOT save 50%  on a premium cooler pre-order.  
    REI lets you use the 20% off coupons that they do yearly on Yetis so you really only saved 30% to wait for an inferior product  and have your money tied up. Based on all the shipping issues so far with not even being able to tell people an expected date and then moving them once they do finally tell them I doubt this company will be around long even if Yeti doesn't own them after the lawsuit. Seems like a risky but to me I will stick with my Yetis happily. 
    I don't know why you and @4Runner care so much.  Depending on what you value yourself at, you've wasted some coin in all of the RTIC threads.  We get it bro, you think we're all stupid.  I love my inferior product that holds more ice and drinks at 1/2 the price.
    I don't really.  more gamesmanship actually.

    @SGH I've completed my journey to the dark side. Arrived today. I'm super impressed. It'll get a sure 'nuff test over the Thanksgiving holidays. 


    Congradulations on the Yeti Killer. No need to test it my friend, it was designed and tested at the factory to be sure that it exceeded and crushed the performance of the high dollar over priced competitor. All you have to do is put it to use and enjoy it my friend. And at half the price you don't have have to feel like a fool. Remember the old wise sayings: A fool and his money are soon parted. Well you are no fool my friend. You bought wisely. And the other: There is a sucker born every minute. Well you obviously didn't get suckered either my friend. Sit back, relax and enjoy your savings and the Yeti Killer.

    Put a Yeti sticker on it and someone will buy it.

    Do all of us true loyal Yeti owners need to break of and form a renegade BGE site so that we're not associated with these low class RTIC types?

    All this Rtic-cule over a cooler.  Guess all your tools are Snap-On? Only consume SRF beef, etc?  Mine was waiting for me when I arrived home.  I love it.  @sgh feel free to use rtic-cule in your song.

    You didn't get what you paid for bruh!  Your 20 and 45 are really more like a 15 and a 40.  We on the other hand got what we paid for!!   :tongue:  =)

    That's a 50. Oh yeah that's not an option on Rtics you only get 3 choices.  I don't get it the biggest complaint on Yeti is they are big and heavy so Rtics great plan was to make them bigger and heavier. Sounds genius.

    I appreciate the contribution to my song my friend. I'm hoping to have it complete before the weekend is over. Don't pay those Yeti fanatics no never mind. They have more money than sense ;)

    No Lit, you just don't understand your phone.   It is in purple, which means that is your search history.  The results below your history are the actual results.  Nice try though!   :whistle:
