How To Use The GMC MultiPro Tailgate
The GMC six-function MultiPro Tailgate is designed to work as hard as you do. Whether you are loading heavy cargo, setting up a mobile workstation, or tailgating before the big game, this innovative feature transforms the way you use your truck bed. Learn more about the MultiPro Tailgate and how its different configurations can elevate your ownership experience with this guide from Rick Hendrick Buick GMC Richmond.
What Can The MultiPro Tailgate Do?
So, what can the MultiPro Tailgate do? The system features a primary gate and a smaller inner gate hinged within the primary gate panel. Raising and lowering these two gates in different combinations unlocks six versatile configurations that can simplify your day. Depending on how you configure the primary and inner gate, your MultiPro Tailgate can:
- Create Load Gate Stops:Both the primary gate and inner gate include vertical load-stop barriers, making it easier to haul longer items like lumber, piping, or sporting equipment around Henrico.
- Simplify Bed Access: Folding the inner gate down provides a wider, more accessible opening to the truck bed. It can also create a sturdy full-width step rated for up to 375 pounds, so climbing in and out of the bed is effortless.
- Become A Mobile Work Surface: Lowering the inner gate alone creates a flat, standing-height work surface. It is ideal for reviewing plans at the Glen Allen job site, organizing gear before a hike, or simply having a convenient place to prep on the go.
Benefits Of The MultiPro Tailgate
The benefits of the MultiPro Tailgate extend well beyond hauling and towing. Its adaptable design makes it the perfect companion for virtually any lifestyle:
- Busy Families:From soccer practice pickups to weekend grocery runs, families can take advantage of the easy-access step to load strollers, coolers, and gear without straining. The standing work surface also doubles as a convenient spot for sorting bags and supplies.
- Off-Road Adventurers: For those who spend time on the trails, the MultiPro Tailgate is a basecamp essential. Use the work surface to prep equipment or enjoy the available MultiPro Tailgate Audio System by KICKER®, which delivers premium sound right from the tailgate for a memorable outdoor experience.
- Hard-Working Businesses: Contractors and tradespeople in Goochland can use the load-stop configurations to secure building materials and the standing work surface to review blueprints. Every function is engineered to save time and keep the workday moving forward.
