    According to Keegan anything over a 65 quart yeti requires a forkift to move it around. After adding drinks and ice it requires a crane.

      If he'd set his purse down and put his man hands on it, he'd be able to move it...

      I've got a 125 already and a 110 ordered... Yeah, they're heavy when they're full... and no, they don't slide.... An igloo will slide BUT IT'S STILL HEAVY!

        I can buy seven $70 Igloo MaxCold 120qt coolers for the price of one $500 Yeti 125qt cooler. Plus the Yeti when empty is as heavy as an Igloo is full. I've seen the belt hinge repair work for years. Rubber matting works well too. I'm replacing my broken latches with $12 rubber RV door latches... got the idea from Yeti.

          Pieces of old seat belts work well too.

              My ancient igloo cooler is sporting the pull straps off of some worn out work boots for hinges. Been working for two years now.

                    Old plastic cattle ear tags work great as well.

                        If you had that $500 Yeti you wouldn't have to buy 7 of them junky Igloos!

                          Coolers are disposable, I let my friends and relatives pack stuff off in them. I just put a bunjee around them to keep the lid on.

                            Leave it to a "country boy" to figure it out. You old guys on here remember when we used the foil off of a cigeratte package to wrap around a fuse when one would blow?
