5th Wheel Tailgates
I will take delivery of a 05 F250 CC PSD soon. (Build date was 22 Nov). Hinting for the kids to give money for Christmas to purchase a 5th wheel tailgate. I am leaning towards Husky's locking anodized aluminum model. Also considering a plastic/aluminum model. Have steel on my 95 which is quickly turning to rust.
Anybody with any experience with 5th wheel tailgates? Interested in weight handling capability also.

I have a steel painted one that works OK. I recently saw the aluminum Husky tailgate on a 04 F350 dually in a campground. That is the best fifthwheel tailgate I have ever seen. How much is the price tag on that tailgate?
