went to best buy today & on our way there, we notice a truck with the tailgate down. Well just inside the tail gate was OH I want to say a few days with of food, Eggs, veggies & a few other items. (NOTICE THE TAIL GATE WAS DOWN)

we were all laughing at it & my son starts pointing to the truck (he was trying to tell the driver beside us) well he finally saw it & backedddddddddddd Wayyy off, The truck was doing jack rabbit starts & stops so we were waiting for the food to come rolling out the back of the truck. we didnt see it.

SO if you put food in the back of your truck PUT THE TAIL GATE UP

i never trusted leaving my gate down with stuff in the back. typically, it won't go anywhere, but i don't wanna be 'that guy' who lets something fly into somebody else's windshield

the only time I leave my tail gate down is when I am racing lol causes less drag lol

actually... more drag. it screws up the eddy created when the gate is up & causes the air to push down on the end of the bed.

i race with the tailgate off, but i have a tonneau to keep the airflow over the back
