I drive home from SC with my hogs quartered in a 150 qt cooler, I can get two nice hogs in it. As long as the cooler is cold and the hog is cold when it goes in the cooler you can go a long time on the road. After a 13 hour trip, with a cold cooler with a little ice on the bottom and ice over the top of the meat I doubt there are two cups of water in the cooler when I get home and it is not yeti or yeti knock off, just a Coleman extreme. As far as the chest freezer goes, two years ago a good friend kille a nice bull elk in Idaho, he bought a used chest freezer and put it in his p/u bed along with a portable generator. The meat was frozen when he left Idaho to return home to Lanc Co. PA. Along the way he would stop to rest and plug the freezer into his generator which was on the ground and let it run for a while to keep the meat frozen. I worked like a charm.
