Well Done!

I’m writing to simply say well done. Holds ice in 90+ degrees, even in direct sunlight. Light enough even fully loaded to be ‘portable’. The removable lid was undersold to me. It has been a game changer for me as I load it in the back of my camper and by removing the lid adding ice is no longer a pain in the ***. Well done. If this thing lasts as long as I hope it does it might turn out to be the best thing since the creation of beer. Well done. Very well done.

Must Buy

This cooler is the best thing I have ever bought, been a year now and am still happy. Holds drinks cold for days and perfect for floating around in the lake. If you’re looking for a great cooler, why not get one that floats?

So glad to hear your Rugged Road cooler has been a great addition to summer days spent on the lake. We couldn't agree more--the stakes have been raised: all coolers should make for reliable floating buddies!

Great Ice Retention

I was surprised to see that my cooler held ice for 5 days. I probably would have still had ice on day 6, but I dumped the cooler to repack it.

Even Better

Love the new style. I have the previous generation and the new style makes a good cooler into a great cooler. Keeps ICE for days and doesn't weigh a ton.

Blue v2 65 Review

So far its been positive. Cooler is lightweight and spacious as advertised. 4/5 because ice retention is a bit less, but it does keep things cold, and it has been great on road trips so far.

Love the Cooler

It holds ice forever, and is super light weight compared to my other coolers. Can’t wait to take it on the boat, and float with it all day!!!

Howdy, Frank! Stoked to hear that your RR65 V2 has exceeded expectations! We're just as excited to level-up our summer lake days with a floating cooler. :)

What A Cooler!!

We are really enjoying our new 65. It replaced a much heavier cooler with a smaller but taller interior with no separation and keeps ice as long or longer as best we can tell. There seems to be a lot of thought that’s gone into this cooler with the handles, reversible lid etc..

03/25/2025

Rugged Road Outdoors

Howdy, Craig! We're so glad to hear that your RR65 V2 cooler has made a positive first impression! We can't wait to see where it accompanies you this summer. Thank you for taking a chance on our small business!

So Far So Good

We’ve only used it once but so far it’s great and many upgrades vs the older RR we had. Nice to have a drain plug, clamp lid and internal separator. The company was good to work with and swapped out my order for a bigger one.
