Anyone using a portable cooler in their 500 series Rangers? I have turned my cooler into a day box and have been looking hard at Pelicans etc. would like to see what others are using and the cooler size that’s being used.

I use both small versions of the Yeti coolers in my z520C although any cooler will work.
I use and like the Yeti small soft-sided cooler.

I was thinking the next side up from the small Pelican. I think it’s a 30series but I did t want to be tripping over it all the time. Thinking I could put it in front of the step and just use it as a step going from the front deck to the back.

I use a small soft side RTIC.
Scott Martin has a portable cooler in his Ranger. Hopefully this link works. There might be different videos he has on coolers too.

Recommend against the Scott Martin "sponsored" cooler as it doesn't maintain ice for much longer than a day of light use. Pelican makes a good old Made in the USA cooler with a lifetime warranty that is worth a serious consideration.
Thanks for sharing!
