5th wheel tailgate

I have the Husky tailgate. My factory tailgate was damaged in an incident unrelated to the fifth wheel. I would not have purchased it if the original was not damaged. The factory tailgate is obviously much heavier and stronger although the husky is probably strongest and the best quality in its price range. It is light but seems fairly stout. The husky tailgate does make hitching and unhitching much easier. I can now place things in the back of the bed without lowering the tailgate. Actually, I have had the tailgate on the truck for about a year and have not lowered it once. I am no longer hauling dirt bikes and have a work truck that I can use for moving things around my property so it works fine for me. It also does seem to cut down on turbulence in the bed when towing the fifth wheel. If full timing and dedicated tow vehicle I feel it is a great option. If not I would keep the factory tailgate.
