For some of us, there is no better time of year than this week. We won’t say who among us has two fantasy football leagues and plans to spend his Sunday watching his beloved Miami Dolphins open the season – that’s beside the point. What we will say is that we’re so passionate about fall, we’ve compiled a list of must-have tailgating features to commemorate this glorious time of year.

The list tackles everything from an in-bed trunk that can double as a cooler to new models with stereo controls in the cargo area — aka, tailgate central. Not only do we list the top 10 tailgating features, we pick which new cars do them best. Plus, there’s a video, too. What are you waiting for? Tonight’s game?
