The new tailgate on the 2019 Ram 1500 gives you the ability to get the tailgate out of the way when you need to unload items. <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Barn doors open by swinging out from the middle to give you a wide berth to offer you the access you need inside a barn that has all the items you want to enjoy using in the barn. This might not be something you expect to find in a vehicle that you drive on the road, but it seems there\u2019s one brand that\u2019s going to offer us a barn door feature on it to give us easier access to the items that\u2019s in the rear of the vehicle<\/a><\/strong> to let you get to what you need to access.<\/p>\n

The New Tailgate for Ram<\/h2>\n

Ram decided to not be outdone by the likes of GMC. Not only have these two brands had a Twitter feud recently, but the new Ram 1500 will offer its own version of a Multifunction tailgate to give us a way to get to what we\u2019ve got in the back of the truck. Unlike a barn, the tailgate isn\u2019t going to be split right down the middle, instead, the Ram will have a 60\/40 split for the tailgate that will allow it to be split just to the right of the Ram badge.<\/p>\n

Get Closer and Reach More Stuff with the Ram<\/h2>\n

In fact, you can open one side independent of the other and allow the side that\u2019s not open tohelp keep things secure in the bed of the truck. Getting closer to the bed is important when loading and unloading heavy items and an optional center step that\u2019s attached to the bumper<\/a><\/strong> to make it easier for you to climb in and out of the bed of the truck.<\/p>\n

Swing Open the Doors When Towing<\/h2>\n

When you\u2019re towing a large trailer or boat and you need to get to an item in the bed, you can. The doors fold out to 88 degrees on each side when a trailer is attached to give you an easy way to get into the bedand access the items that you need to. While the tailgate can swing out on each side, when you fold it down, you have to fold down the entire tailgate rather than fold one side down at a time.<\/p>\n
