Default Tailgate table

I have been looking around to find a decent tailgate table. A lot of them are just big enough to fit a camp stove with two burners, but I notice they don't account for the propane tank.

I've seen this one, that has the extended table:

And also this one, without the table and a little cheaper:

What are your thoughts and what have you done with yours? Thanks!

Change your stove to a hose feed. An extension hose will run you all of $25 bucks.

Modified the SpringTail tailgate table install with 4 rivet nuts and mounted closer towards the hinge:

Default Springtail Solutions MPAC

Another vote for the Springtail Solutions MPAC here.

I got the combo kit with two molle bags. The Springtail is pretty solid, and doesn't rattle at all... as advertised. Even with a full load of gear it's tight. The bags seem to be decently tough too. No worries of coming apart even with heavy gear inside.

Springtail is cheaper than the Outback Adventure Products table, though you won't have the extending cutting board option if you need that. For similar money to the Teraflex, I think Springtail is the obvious choice there.

Here are some pics of mine loaded up, and even with my heavy gear-bag on top.

neZZer- whose bags do you have? My Molle pouches don't thread nice and tight on the Springtail.

Another vote for springtail solutions here, i love mine! But to answer your questions... it looks like those are the stock bags you get from Springtail Solutions when you buy their table. You can also buy just the bags from their website.

I have the Trailgater, which is pricey, but very well made. I like it a lot. In this video you can see a couple angles of how I use it--with a 5 pound propane bottle mounted on the tire swinggate (9:30 if not forwarded automatically).

They're the ones offered by Springtail as a kit. You can't "weave" the molle straps to the metal plate as you might weave them when mounting to a soft pack or something, but once you cinch down the straps that go over the front of the bag they're not moving around much.

Well I'll throw one out there too. I've enjoyed my Teraflex table. Easy install and holds 75 pounds. I use my tailgate table probably more than any of my other gear! Ha.

I don't have a better shot of it right now but you can look it upClick image for larger version
