Hey guys,
Just wondering for the few of you that have one of these new GM trucks if you have problems keeping your tailgate closed? I have owned other GM trucks through the years and never had this problem. Once you open the gate you have to shut it a bunch of times to get it to latch and then sometimes going down the road it will just fall open. Any one experiencing this? I can't be the only one. Maybe I'm due for a new one. I bought this '07 in July of '07 brand new and it now has 84,000+ miles on it.
Thanks,
Jon
