Aug 29, 2013 12:38 PM EDT | Matt Mercuro

Cars.com has listed their top tailgating vehicles just in time for the start of football season.

Experts from the site compared a number of different vehicles, big and small, to determine the best tailgating models.

"With football season comes the return of fans to parking lots across the nation to partake in tailgating festivities," said Patrick Olsen, editor-in-chief at Cars.com, in a press statement. "The ultimate tailgate requires the perfect tailgating car, so we took a look at a variety of new cars to determine which ones have factory-installed features to take the drama out of the pre-game party."

The site determined that the best tailgating vehicle is the Ram 1500 according to a company press release.

Cars.com listed a number of different reasons the pickup is the best tailgating vehicle, including the optional RamBox package, a truck bed divider, and Uconnect WiFi. Uconnect helps people set up their fantasy football lineups through a private internet network accessible within 150 feet of the truck.

"The 1500 really has it all when it comes to tailgating, but we realize the pickups aren't for everyone," said Olsen, in a press release. "Our list includes a variety of cars that also come with great tailgating features and fit the needs of every kind of driver."

The top tailgating vehicles include:

-2013 Ram 1500

-2013 Chevrolet Suburban

-2013 Chrysler Town & Country

-2013 Ford Flex

-2013 GMC Acadia

-2013 Honda Fit

-2013 Honda Ridgeline
