I like the basket to put meat, eggs, etc. in. Mine is the 45, and really doesn't hold as much as you think it would. I think if I had more perishables (if I was going on a longer trip), maybe the divider would work better for keeping food separate from drinks. I just wouldn't be able to load as much beer in at one time, it would be more take three out, load three in. There are tie down spots (2 inch holes cut for straps) that you could maybe string a thin cable through and lock it to something. Mine lives in the camper so I don't lock it up. My fridge never worked in my camper and I couldn't get parts for it so I took it out and put in a sliding drawer that the cooler sits on.
