I’m curious, what’s an item, tool, or purchase you own that you feel has completely justified its cost over time? Could be anything from a gadget to a piece of furniture or even software. What made it worth it for you?

    How big is this thing? do you access it (via passenger) while driving or do you have to pull off?

    Been eyeing one myself but haven’t found a good mixture of size and convenience that I feel it could replace fast food and gas station sodas.

      It could fit in the passenger side footwell of my SUV, but I kept it in the way back because I’d rather have my sweetie riding up front, and I also have an extra 12V outlet back there.

      They do come in different sizes. Some have wheels. Mine is 18L and about 15 pounds, so wheels not necessary. Its about a mid to large size cooler shape. Not one of the ones you’d take deep sea fishing, but maybe a small tailgate. Think side handles cooler, not one where the single bar handle locks the lid in place.

      I do not recommend rooting around in it while driving, though if I put it in my pickup on a solo road trip, I probably would put it on the front passenger seat, where if I were stopped at a red light, I could quickly grab another drink.

      If you want me to PM you the link to mine, I’m happy to do so.
