    I had a bed extender but never used it, so I sold it. I have a 6' bed so bikes go in easily, and use straps to hold things down/in the bed if I need to leave the gate down. The tailgate limit is 200# so be careful loading it.

    BTW if anyone needs a hardware kit for the 2nd Gen tailgate- I still have it.

    I hope you know tail light guards wouldn't have helped anything with that wreck.

    Bed extenders come in handy when needed. I didn't use mine that much. But if you do get one, it is a must to have a tailgate lock! Or that extender won't be around long.:eek:

    heck i'm 18, i ain't got a wife. haha
    ok here's what happened: I started hydroplaning, the front end hit the right side guard rail, spun around again (at this point I'm pointing down the wrong side of the interstate), the rear end hit the rigth side guard rail also ( now im point the correct way), and i finally stopped. here's a diagram of the wreck
