What is a "tailgate"?
A tailgate is the rear door or panel of a vehicle, typically on a truck or SUV, that can be opened to allow access to the cargo area. It is hinged at the bottom and can be lowered or swung open to make it easier to load and unload items. Some tailgates are also designed to support extra functions, such as serving as a workbench or providing additional storage space.
