Pimp my truck

Go Pack Go

 

I tried the Coleman 12v coolers when I first started. The first one lasted a day and a half. The replacement was maybe a week if that. I just went back to ice. Maybe the two I had were from a bad batch I don't know.

 

I always put my cooler where the fan had plenty of room never had issues but I always put cold drinks in there so it doesn't push too hard.

 

Yea I read that it's a simple fix but my stubborn principles won't let me fix something that I had just bought. I might try buying one again. I don't mind ice except for the fact that I can't keep my deli meat from getting waterlogged in zip lock bags. First world problems right?

 

I did the same thing. Always pre-chilled everything before putting it into the cooler and kept the fan in the open. Like I said, I probably just got some rejects. I know that a lot of guys swear by them. I just didn't have such luck.

 

Lol I really actually got a reject. We have a place near us called bargain hunt. It's basically a bunch of items that either didn't sell at department stores or was sold and returned. They put a date on the product and as the date gets older the price goes down. Each week an additional 10%. Anyway, bought my Coleman there. Works great. Actually too good. It'll freeze near the fan. So I unplug it at night. But when I start up after a couple days off I put about 10 water bottles that I kept in the freezer over night in it to help get the temp down. I put all my things in plastic tupperware vs bags. Easier for organization and nothing leaks. First week I had some chicken in there that leaked. It was a couple days before I found out. Man that stunk and crappy to clean out. Clorox bleach wipes are awesome though.

 

I have s 69 qt cooler. one of those extreme types. ice from gary lasts about 3 days.

I have this old soft side lunch box cooler that had a hard plastic insert. took it out and use it as a dry space inside the cooler as my "fridge" works pretty good..

pics when I get to the teuck on tuesday.

 

I went and bought the HDMI adapter for my IPhone. Plugged it right up to my 32, plays whatever is on my phone screen, Netflix, HBO and YouTube. I use Putlocker for movies and www.watch-episodes.com for my shows.

 

whats the word on the freezing?

looking to make some changes in diet. hoped to bring frozen fish vac sealed then maybe cook it the lunch box cooker?
