my new Superduty has a 6'8" bed, and I've always owned long beds in the past so this was never an issue.
when I travel to dirt bike events I have the need to have at least 2 bikes in the bed of the truck. 1 will fit without a problem on a diagonal, however 2 need to be in straight and I can not close the tailgate this way.
one option is to take the tailgate off, but I would rather not.

has anyone used a device such as this to keep the tailgate partially closed/open and does it have the clearance needed to clear a travel trailer? in the pictures they only show it being used with a flatbed trailer where the only concern is the tongue jack and not the gate hitting the trailer in a full lock turn?
