    I literally have a headache from reading the first few pages of this thread. I’ll never have that five minutes back. I’m kind of upset.

    Alright. I just put my Schrodinger's box in the back of my truck and guess what... my tailgate was both up AND down. Now what the fuck am I supposed to do?

    Why don’t you just put a rope around it, like a lasso, and pull the rope.

    So here’s the deal: there is no tailgate. It’s an abstraction.

    Tailgate probably weighs as much as the bike, which is unliftable itself.

    It does have plenty of momentum alright!

    Threads like this make me ponder trading in my 3rd for a 2nd or maybe a 1st. Don't get me wrong, I dig my truck. But for fucks sake, this OP can't be serious.
    "I can't figure out how to close my tailgate."

    Having said that, I still see him in here asking questions..... makes me think troll.

    You keep the donkey tied off to your wife’s cars bumper, and drive away. Donkey stays with wife’s bumper...it’ll be her problem when she wakes up.

    I think we need to look at this a new way. Why load the bike into the truck when you can load the truck onto the bike. I think this solves the problem.minivan on motorcycle.jpg
