Side Swing Tailgate?

[WareWolf]

I'm sorry, but I don't get it...
Honda: tail gate swings out (and from there on it is useless)
Truck: tail gate folds down and by that it is a working surface, seat, table...
Honda: tiny area for storage.
Truck: large area for storage.
Honda with bed cover: tiny surface area.
Truck with bed cover: large surface area.
Honda spare tire: remove it and you have a large secure area...OK
Truck spare tire: you can crank it down and don't have to lift 75Lbs.


I think you should get yourself a Honda... JMTCW

I think you missed the point...

Thanks for actually taking the time to read and understand what I'm attempting, as well as have such a thorough response.

All of your suggestions seem right on track. Since I'm planning on trading the Raptor in for the new aluminum one next year, I'll probably just figure something simpler out for the next year or so and then get a DECKED solution. I don't see the sense in getting it now since I doubt it will transfer right over.

No, I did not.
You are very short with short arms (can reach only inches in to the truck bed) so you need a much lower to the ground vehicle, like a Honda SUV with halve its roof cut off.
