i like this , my idea of a great tailgate would be one that once lowered could be pushed or even mechanically pulled under the bed.
this would of course be where the spare is located. this would allow no obstructions when using the bed . the spare could possibly still
be located there, a thinner tailgate would surely work. and include a step that drops down from the rear bumper. hey maybe.

wish i had a picture. My father had a 1972 ford f100 two tone blue and white with the 3 speed on the column. i loved that truck.

i have had both and the husky liners are just better, they dont slide around like the weather tech. and they just feel so much better quality. i dont like the plastic feel the weathertech have.

Our 2017 escape also does this, when setting in the passenger seat i can feel this bumping , as if it is under the floorboard . under my right foot
it seems to be random and not always. I will check this when i can and post back. thanks for the info

Hi Blueoval members, cant wait to dive in to all the info on here,
on my 4th ford truck. had a 1992 ranger, 1999 f150 xlt, 2000 f150xlt and a 2015 F150 Lariat.
New F150 tailgate step?

agree about the debris. could have a rubber seal that wipes the tailgate as it retracts in, although it would most likely miss some and jam anyway.
the tailgate has so many uses. i do like the idea of left and right side rear bumper retractable steps, like the side steps.
just the specs of the diagram is what gave me the idea. if it can have a retractable hinge that drops the gate down that far that space could
hold a gate. even though that is the spare location. lower the spare or even raise the bed a little higher than the bumper.
a 3" box in between the bed and spare would hold a gate without the wide top .
a big dent would affect it at the back of the bed , depending on the depth of the dent.
i like it..
