I see virtually no advantage to the bumper steps in the GM products. They just aren't low enough. The Ford isn't a bad design. Personally, I think the best is an aftermarket AMP Bed Step. Perfect height, easy to deploy and stow, doesn't matter if you have a trailer on or not.
That's what I have on my Ram. One of the best additions I put on my truck. I'm considering putting one of their side steps on too for when I just want to reach in and not climb in.

Of course if you by a MH like I did the steps are power and they come out to you. No need for a $2k tail gate to go along with a $60k truck and $70k 5th wheel!!!!
My friend has had $47,400.00 of repairs plus a $4000.00 towing cost from their winter trip on a MH with 28000 miles. Engines issues and a new radiator plus more. Nothing is perfect.

At least GM placed a label warning the owner not to open the small part of the tailgate with a hitch in place.

No that would be the Ridgeline. I think it is a little gimmicky, but I used to think that about a heated steering wheel and I check that box everytime now. Don't know that I would use this tailgate as designed, but I am not going to $itch and whine about it either like many like many here do. If I have choice I would likely not order it, but it will likely be a standard feature, so be it. Not sure its worth a conversation, but sometimes people get really bored here I think.
When Ford came out with their step. I thought it was gimmicky as well, when in hindsight it was just a really poor design. Smartest method of getting in the back of the truck is that step bumper that GM started with the Avalanche, should have been on a truck since day one. Simple, nothing to unfold, pull out or put back.
