Cooler doesnt fit with tonneau cover

If he was going to be in the dog house for a new cover, a Yeti would lead to unspeakable purgatory....

Maybe a new cooler would be easier to swing without couch residency as a result?

It might just fit, i have to check in the am, how are these on holding ice in the summer?

lol I have the yeti already, I think the large box at the door and another weekend in the garage is the nail in the coffin

To be perfectly honest, I did a search based on bed height and picked a brand I recognized (and wasn't a small house payment). The reviews I've seen seem mixed, but nothing blatantly negative sticks out. Typical blown mold plastic with insulation, and some more rugged fittings made it interesting to me. I am hoping to go with a BlackDiamond tonneau if Jeep ever starts painting Gobi, so will need to know what fits.

Let me know if you find it fits as I have been in the same boat and just as irratated. I have been on the fence about going to Igloo which is not far from my house and maybe asking them if they can design and build a new cooler that is maybe a bit longer but lower in profile and gives the same space. I only have one cooler out of all my igloos, etc will fit in the bed with bakflip cover down.

Right I came from igloo to yeti or similar because I was tired of the poor build quality, latches not working, the hinges breaking on the caps and the ice not lasting more than a few hours. I might just use the soft yeti i have but I liked the larger room in the 65 cooler. They couldnt of made the bed 18 inches high ?? lol

I have the diamondback cover and it fits the lifetime 65, which is also 17.5" tall.

Might be a solid option. Most of the reviews are pretty good and has a good seal from the looks of it.

What is your experience with it? How long does ice last? Durable?

I have a Newair icemaker and filled about 1/2 way. Left outside to test and still had ice in the water after three days. Lots of haters will say put it up against a yeti. But three days is good enough for my uses and i can make more

Oh yeah and i did alot of reading on how lifetime addressed broken latch issues and hinges that other's have issues with.

yeah, honda ridgeline it is, not only did not they check with me they didnt check if the average cooler would fit

Could've measured before purchasing.

each of our JTs have a tri-fold cover on them ... each has an Igloo Marine cooler (think they are 48 qt), used them in our bay boat for years and then camping .. ice lasts several days .. there is about 1/2" clearance between cooler and tri-fold .... you can buy 4 Igloo coolers for the price of a Yeti

That’s a bummer. I think I have a Kenai 40 or 45 and it’s fits perfect under my Tyger Triifold. I’d be a little ticked if my cooler didn’t fit as well.

 

[Cmac610]

That’s the problem. You need a bigger Yeti! My 65 fits perfect under my Armis Hard Tri-Fold!

I did the all important measuring, but everything changes when the wife throws an idea at it. Started with a tonneau cover and a cooler.. Then she added a bed mat. Cooler barely fit after that. Then she went for the freezer. Now for sure that wasn't going to fit. So she added the RSI bed cap so the freezer fits. Oh, wouldn't a slide out be nice she says. Fortunately, it all works under the smart cap.

Planning is great, but wants and needs change all of the time. So some of the planning should be for change. Have fun with it and don't stress. You are at the right place for help and fitment ideas.
