Sorry I hope I didn’t add confusion by saying “newest revision”. I thought there were always tweaks and say part AA was an older revision from part AD at the end of the number. I’ve been happy with the mopar table but we just put beer and a portable speaker on it.

Goose Gear is as previously said, solid, well built and noise free going down the rode. Like that it doesn't have cables or braces on the sides.

When I've called them on the phone they have answered every time and were very knowledgeable on their products. Great quality products and good people to work with.
This is the table I’m going with soon. Like the hinge design (ala AAL) and the cutting board (ala Outback). Don’t want cable hinges and I want a sliding cutting board for extra space. I learned a long time ago, you get what you pay for. This table seems to fit the bill for me!

3 Logos. 2 open and 1 closed
I don‘t mind paying for quantity and design, but those logos (especially the two when open) are a deal-breaker for me. I haven’t decided on a table yet but know I like the tables with an extendable board.

What is a tailgate table that is aluminum? The American Adventure Labs appears to be at least partially aluminum(?).
Looking for a lighter weight one than the DeeZee version which advertised as aluminum but turned out to be steel.

Across all of the various forums I've been on, you are the first person to ever get that! I'm impressed! It is a great song, and Traffic is such an under appreciated band.
I grew up in the '60s and pretty much followed Winwood all along his path...

Anyone have any experience or luck getting one of these on a JL(U)?

https://www.amazon.com/Hooke-Road-Wrangler-Compatible-Unlimited/dp/B09PDR8GYH/.

Love the deeper second shelf for grill or stove, but not sure about the mounting...
see my post...easy to install...the holes are already drilled and tapped in the tailgate under the black plastic cover...there are two holes in the plastic cover at the top that are ready to be drilled out...Hooke-Road supplies a template that worked fine in marking the third hole at the bottom of the plastic cover...all three holes lined up easily and I was able to set the table on a jack and screw it to the tailgate without help.

I've been looking for a tailgate table. That might be the one. Still don't like the stupid holes for cups.

Gregs Customer pre-sale Service went non-existent when i asked about blocking the air vents; there was one weak failed attempt to justify that there was still "enough" venting and no responses after my comparing the amount of original venting area compared to what was left after the install of the table. pity, because it's pretty stuff.

i spend too much time in too many different environments (from humid coastal to Mojave and Sonora Dez dry) to consider using anything that compromises the Environmental controls.
The big holes where the tabs are cut from and then bent out appear to leave plenty of space for air molecules to flow. I would highly doubt that panel, bolted directly to the door, seals anything. Just sayin'.
On that note, from all the comments, I like the Outback design. I'm a minimalist, and that one is pretty clean.
