Best Size Tailgate TV
The tailgate TV size that we have found to work best for our space is a 50 inch TV. Imagine your tailgate setup and what tables or mounts that you will be using. This size easily fits into the backseat of our truck and is relatively easy for one person to manage in setup. We currently use a hitch mount but it also fits well on a 6ft table with space for a few other items. Larger TVs can be more difficult to travel whereas smaller TVs can make it difficult for larger crowds to see.
Best Tailgate TV Brands
The tailgate TV that we found to be the best option overall, is our Samsung and this being primarily due to the sound quality. When looking for a brand for your tailgating TV, keep in mind that value is often key. There are a lot of opportunities for a TV to get destroyed in the process from transporting, during a tailgate party, and the return trip home.
