    None... love her just the way she is.
    i have 2017 and i have the OEM flip-over bed extender.

    I can't figure out why the bed extender has two straps with very unique looking metal brackets at the end. I'll go take a pic if no one knows what I am talking about.

    I apologize ahead if this is already discussed, I promise I searched TW and couldn't find the answer.

    Those click into the latches of the tailgate and release when you pull the handle. They keep the bed extender stationary.
