For me it's a no. Problem when hauling sand/gravel etc. And I often need to get in the box when towing and the tailgate won't clear.
I buy an Amp Research step that goes "in the corner" and that I can use with the tailgate up.
Good point. I probably need mine more when there's a trailer attached. So I saved a few bucks and have an item that's more useful to me.
But everyone's got different uses. That's why there are different products.
Retired the ever present purloined milk crate when buying the 2011 F 250 SC that the tailgate step replaced. Ditto the post that ~erik~ posted earlier. Love both options.
For those with 2017's with tailgate step, what does it take to remove the tail gate? What is the weight of the TG? Can it be removed and reinstalled safely by 1 person?
Thank you
