i know this is a little off topic but has anyone seen the tailgates for the 08 powerstroke. they have a step that slides out of the top of the tailgate and a pole that folds up so you have like a railing to pull your self up. pretty neat never felt how heavy it was though. ps the new powerstrokes are ugly did ford ever screw up on that truck.

Had never heard of it. Looks cheap. And based on your experience, no thanks.
