    Anyone have any large Yeti coolers in their bed? Looking to get the biggest Yeti to fit from bed side to bed side. I understand how the beds narrow in the middle some. I’ve had my Tacoma for 1 full week. It also has a soft bed cover. If anything I’d like to see or get opinions on other sizes & how they fit. Leaning towards white or harvest red, because my truck is Barcelona Red. Thanks y’all

    I have the 75 and it fits across the bed in the middle part no problem.

    I don't have a large yeti cooler, just a few cheap colemans that do a decent job whilst I'm deliberating a dometic fridge set up. If you're going to spend yeti money on a cooler maybe have a look at a fridge? You can plug it into the power socket on the bed when driving.

    Throwing in my two cents here. A yeti weighs a hell of a lot even empty. I borrowed my big one from work once along with my big Coleman from Wally World. At the end of the week I actually thought the Wally World chest did a better job. Plus it costs about a quarter as much. Only negative is I have to cover it when around other techno taco geeks so I don’t get shamed out of the parking lot. If you are in bear country though, and said bear is in the back of your truck then the yeti wins. Another plus is I can actually lift my loaded 110 Coleman barely. I cannot do the same with my loaded yeti. Instead of hitting the gym I chose to get a lighter cooler.

    Height might be your main concern. I actually had to sell my Pelican 65 in favour of the shorter Yeti 65. I have a 2nd gen with an OEM bedmat and a BAKflip tonneau cover. The Yeti 65 is the largest I can fit, with only ~.5" of room to spare. Not sure a 75 would fit with certain combos on tonneau/bedmats.
