GM Made a change, apparently - it is behind the license plate, but when you remove the plate, you're staring at the spare tire, and the plug is to the left of it, drivers side. Then you have to squeeze your fingers around in a rather awkward position, and then you have no leverage, nor can you even see it. It's all by feel.
Maybe some people don't take it off much -- but my tailgate comes off a lot - due to the Truck Camper ... and the main thing here, if GM even says you can take it off "Occasionally" it still a real, true PITA ...
