I have it pressure fitted in and a few pieces of aluminum duct tape to keep things in place.  I honestly never plan to dump ice into it, just carry groceries home in the Texas heat.  You know, so my popsicles don't melt on the drive home!

Those who have the need for a beer box can drink a beer or two and get creative!

Nice! That would be so awesome! Too bad you're on the other side of the country from me! That would be a fun weekend project! Lol! Although you might not be able to remember it afterward!

Yeah.  You could lay on the ground on your back with a tube running down from the bed.

It's difficult to know just how much you don't know until you know it.
In other words... if people learn by making mistakes, by now I should know just about everything!!!

My parents used to live 45 minutes from the closest grocery store
They would toss two large coolers in the back of their K-5 to bring groceries home in

i always thought you were supposed to put those tools boxes the other way so you can open them from the sliding rear window and grab a cold one
