    JK Tailgate Tables - The lowdown

    My choice would be the Adventure Trailers Tailgater or the Outback Adventure JK Tailgater. I like the easy cleaning surface as well as being able to wipe crumbs off the front lip of the tray. I also like the pull out side tray for more counter space. Personally I like the wood of the...
