    Sorry , I thought you were worried about the weight on the gate , that's why you didn't want it down .

    I've hauled a 4-wheeler quite a few miles with the gate down, on all types of roads, and there not a single ding on it. Not saying it can't happen, but I think your over thinking it.

    I got a long bed for this reason..

    but honestly, I wouldn't worry about rocks kicking up and dinging it.. do you have mud flaps?

    I took my mud flaps off and have driven on gravel and dirt roads and I don't have any dings or scratches from rocks kicking up anywhere at all on the truck...

    No flaps, no dings. Now this is with factory sized tires.

    no flaps, see my sig ;)

    even if i drive 500 miles on gravel and end up with only 1 chip on the gate its still not worth it to me cause it was something that could have been prevented, im pretty anal about things that can be prevented. If my truck catches a rock on the hwy and chips my bumper, not a huge deal cause theres not to much I could have done to avoid it from happening

    A little of this and a little of that.
    Hey nut, have you considered a hitch mount to haul your dirt bike with?

    I wonder if they make a sled deck to fit a Tacoma, then you can haul your toys around like the big boys

    I've hauled a dirtbike many miles on gravel roads with my tailgate down and never noticed any rock chips on the tailgate. A rock would have to do a serious curve ball to hit an open tailgate.
