    Is there any EZ LIFTING involved with the EZ Lift and Lower tailgate? Or is it just a misleadingly-named feature? Real question, not snark.

    And of course, we all know that the EZ Lift tailgate design originated with the 2007 Toyota Tundra.

    The spring-loaded tailgate feature does decrease the amount of effort it takes to close the gate.

    Those bumper side steps should be standard on every pickup.

    I'm not sure I agree with this little "notch out" on each side of the rear bumper.. For one, it's not deep or wide enough for larger feet.. I would have rather seen a tow hook positioned as use for a step up. As for the tailgate.. I've yet to open it.. so I can't pass judgement.
