This illustrates a good point: we all care about different things. For me, having a switch that drops the tailgate, and another that simultaneously lowers all windows has zero value. If I’m opening the tailgate I’m going to access the bed, so I can wait the three seconds it takes me to get there and push the button. Somebody else loading because I’m disabled? They can push the tailgate button.
Maybe I’m uncoordinated and/or messy, but a loose glasses case is harder for me to find and use with one hand, particularly at night, than a fixed compartment. Can I do it? Sure, I did it for years, just as I managed with manual roll up windows and manual transmissions for years. I’ve just been spoiled.
These days trucks are kinda like subscription TV packages. There are maybe a dozen TV channels my wife and I occasionally watch, but to get all twelve of them we’re stuck with a subscription that includes another 100 channels we will never use, and a couple channels we enjoyed are no longer available. Obviously, I’ve gotten old, so I no longer represent the market.
The only benefit of the piano key tailgate release for me, is it saves 1 trip out of the cab, hooking up a gooseneck. Unhooking it doesn't matter.
So that's would be somewhere around 3 times a week, so no big savings. I need the exercise anyway.
Now, if you could drop it going down the road and have a GE mini-gun replica mounted back there, that would be awesome. Ya, I'm a James Bond fan.
