I have a BakFlip bed cover on my electrically operated tailgate. It occurred to me this morning that if I have my jumper cables or tools stored in the bed and my battery is dead, I cannot get to them to jump the truck or get the tools to swap the batteries. This is due to the BakFlip only being able to be opened when the tailgate is down.
I might have found a downside to the BakFlip here unless someone knows an alternative way to get into the bed. I am sure I could make a little slim jim hook to slide between the tailgate and BakFlip to grab the release cable, but wondered if there was a more elegant solution.
