The regular tailgate means you have two more things to remember to do while unhooking and hooking up: lower the tailgate and raise the tailgate. With our truck and 5th wheel we don't have room to lower the tailgate if the 5th wheel is at an angle to the truck, so the notched tailgate means we don't have to mess with that...ever. Works for us.
Also, we bought our truck used and the previous owner didn't use a notched tailgate and you could see the results in the trashed tailgate.
