swinging tailgate

Look at that crazy tailgate!

I think that the tailgate is one of the best features of the truck. It is essential for the in bed trunk to be useful.

I will admit that it might be difficult to open it while in the garage. :cool:

This tailgate is brilliant. No more climbing over your gate to get cargo. The big 3 and Toyota should be hanging their heads in shame they didn't think of this.

Is this the one you're referring to?

I haven't been able to determine if the power rear sliding window travels horizonally or up & down (like a Sport Trac). Maybe some of our Alliston members have a clue...? :confused:

Jab,

It looks like the rearwindow slide to the left, look at teh video of the guys un-loading plywood on hondanews.com, the window is open, and the left side appears to be doubled.

Yes, it does indeed slide sideways, I tried it myself because I was curious, can't quite remember which side though... I thought it was the passenger side?

I really don't care which way it slides. I like the fact that it is a power sliding window.

You will be able to get an 'open air' feeling while driving with all of the windows down, the sunroof open, and the rear window open. :cool:
