Abstract
An adjustable tray table for a motor vehicle is disclosed. A base is fixed to a dashboard in the vehicle, and a platform is attached to the base. The platform or tray table has two sides and a substantially flat surface, and is adapted for movement between an extended position and a retracted storage position. When in the retracted storage position the platform closely conforms to the contour of the vehicle dashboard, and projects outwardly therefrom when in the extended position. Slidably engaging rails are provided to controllably direct the platform between the active and retracted storage positions.
