I hate that my headlights are on all the time unless I manually turn them off after I put the trans in drive.
Ford advertised back in the early '70s that the tailgates on their F-series pickups could hold 2000 lbs.
I wonder how much they can hold today?? :h
Locking tailgates are a joke.
I was laughing about tailgate lock first time I've got it, but even without bed top, the bed railing is at my chin level. Just getting in without dropping the gate will require some acrobatic skills, when removing heavy stuff without dropping would be another task.
Than I was moving heavy home stuff still having the aluminium gate. When its light weight is not giving you solid feel and aluminium sheeting is easy to ding, I had 700 lb refrigerator and my 200+ lb on the edge of the gate, with piece of plywood for finish protection.
