  • Thank you for this article about the best RV accessories for adventure! I LOVE the Tailgater Tire Table. My wife and I have a smaller RV and there is never enough space inside. This little table would be a great way to enlarge your kitchen by taking it outdoors.  It looks really easy to set up and we could also use it on our Jeep, as well, for picnics or just to sit back and enjoy the view and have a place to set our cocktails.  I love how portable it is, just fold it up and it pretty much disappears.  I think this would make the perfect anniversary gift for my wife with a bottle of champagne, a vase of flowers and two camping chairs. Thanks so much for the direct link to purchase it on Amazon, that makes it so easy. Thanks for writing this article. Very useful! Cheers!
