Default Anyone Got the Locking Tailgate?

Man, The one thing I'm missing is the locking tailgate on my Ram.

Does anyone have this on their truck?

It was supposed to be out in October and I haven't seen it on not one truck on the lots yet.

I have it on mine. I thought that was going to be standard on all 09 models.

If you still have the window sticker, could you check and see if it's an option and what it's code is. Would be very helpful when I go to order mine.
Thanks

Default Gate Lock

Here's the part number that my dealer gave me 82211668AB

The issue is that its not for sale and there are no availability details from Mopar. He said it would cost right at $100.00 for it.

Pace Edwards has a model coming out in a month or so. I put a PE unit on my 07 Ram. Worked great.

The Pace Edwards looks nice. Hope they come out with one for the 2009 soon. Its cheaper than the Dodge Version by 20 bucks. OEM is always nice though. Going to see if they have it available yet.

Your right! The Locking Tailgate is supposed to be a standard option. Its listed on the website and everything. That bogus that mine does not have it. It was made in September right before they made that standard equipment in October, my window sticker does not have that listed.
