    Best cooler I've ever owned is metal clad, so maybe Yeti is on to something.  Question whether theirs is $790. better than mine.

    I inherited that stove from my FIL, after fighting it for 10-15 years last fall I put it in the campground dumpster.  I bought the new Coleman propane bottle version which is about 500% more reliable, 500% less soot.

    This made me laugh. Good for those of us who gorge on too much brisket and pork butt!

    Isn't that thing like $250? For a folding chair. I can't wait to watch a new video from Matt Pittman hocking that thing alongside the $900 stainless steel cooler while convincing me to buy more of his Holy Cow rub. D@mn you Matt Pittman.....

    In all seriousness that's a nice looking cooler, but I can't justify that for the size that it is.

    It doesn't look very big for $800.
    It’s not, the idea is that you only use it to keep your most valuable items cold.  Think of it as luxury cooler space.

    Mine gets used several times a year, typically on a camping trip where we're staying put.  Have never experienced any reliability or soot issues.
    You do know the recommended fuel is white gas and not lump?

     Those weren’t made to throw away. You can get rebuild kits for the pumps. Super simple design.

    Not me. I am on Yeti probation with the wife.  I’m attending regular meetings down at the Yeti Center. I got some nice sh!t though. 
    How is the rehab going with the Honda Generators?

    You do have some cool Yeti, CI, Audio, shït and the best Bloody Maries too.
    I’m a quitter Ron. No more generators for me. By the way, can I borrow yours?

    Great to see that Matt has somehow recovered from selling clumpy lump to Focker, lol.

    Good for Yeti, they have quite a following and I'm sure this will be a hit.   I won't drop $800 for it but I have various sizes of both hard/soft Yeti coolers and they just plain work.

    My neighbors are RV people and have 5 Yeti hardsides.   I asked why so many and he said the RVers they run with treat everything like a d*ck measuring contest so I'm sure $800 to those folks is nothing.

    Corvettes, Yetis, gold nugget watches, etc....All the alternatives to "actual" d*ck measuring.  Think of all the money we'd save if we didn't have these social stigmas.

    Nothing quite says “I have a huge Johnson” like walking around with an excess of overpriced coolers.
