We at Akins have a few suggestions on what are the best tailgating vehicles for all your pre-game fun.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>First of all, we like trucks. Trucks offer the versatility to accommodate both people and luggage and give you a little insurance against the weather. Here are a few more things to think about related to your tailgating experience.<\/p>\n<h3>Enough space for people<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.akinsford.com\/blog\/difference-between-ford-regular-cab-supercab-supercrew\/\">Cabin configuration<\/a> is a major first step to finding the perfect tailgating truck, as the whole point of tailgating is to bring your friends and have fun. So, we think that whether you choose a<a href=\"http:\/\/www.akinsford.com\/clp-2015-ford-f150-athens-ga\"> 2015 Ford F-150<\/a> or a<a href=\"http:\/\/www.akinsford.com\/clp-2015-ram-1500-atlanta-ga\"> 2015 Ram 1500<\/a>, going with the Crew Cab configuration with room for up to six people is the way to go. That means more space for you and your friends.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-18410\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/678\/2015\/08\/08132226\/2015-RAM-2500-Dashboard_o.jpg\" alt=\"2015 Ram 2500 dashboard\" width=\"768\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/678\/2015\/08\/08132226\/2015-RAM-2500-Dashboard_o.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/678\/2015\/08\/08132226\/2015-RAM-2500-Dashboard_o-300x195.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Plenty of room in the back<\/h3>\n<p>Bed length is another major question when looking for the best tailgating truck. You&#8217;re going to want coolers, plates and napkins, food, chairs and maybe even a grill back there so it&#8217;s important to have space. But, you also want to be sure that you can fit into whatever parking spaces are available. That&#8217;s the same reason why we recommend sticking with a regular duty truck. Unless of course you&#8217;re the one towing the party bus, in which case you should definitely check out the heavy duty<a href=\"http:\/\/www.akinsford.com\/clp-2015-ram-2500-atlanta-ga\"> 2015 Ram 2500<\/a> or the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.akinsford.com\/clp-2015-ford-super-duty-f-250-atlanta-ga\">2015 Ford Super Duty F-250<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"btn btn-default custom-btn\" href=\"http:\/\/www.akinsford.com\/new-ford-super-duty-f-250-srw-winder-ga\">Check out our Ford Super Duty F-250 inventory!<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Bells and whistles&#8230;or at least a radio<\/h3>\n<p>It would be a shame to camp out for the game and miss the pre-game excitement and commentary, so you want a truck with a good radio. Features like electricity plugs also aren&#8217;t available on every trim level, but wouldn&#8217;t it be neat to bring a TV to the game, and then even the unfortunate souls who couldn&#8217;t get tickets would be able to enjoy the game with the sound of the crowd cheering in their ears.<\/p>\n<p>Last of all, but worth being said, whenever you are tailgating with your truck if there&#8217;s alcohol involved be sure to have a designated driver. You wouldn&#8217;t want to mess up your perfect tailgating vehicle now that you have it!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tailgating season is upon us, and it&#8217;s the time of year where, whether you are heading to a local UGA Ice Dogs game or going farther afield, it&#8217;s the season to start deciding what vehicle you should take and how to equip it for the best pregame experience possible.
