Looks like the two doctors on this forum have bonded.

All we could have asked is:
Is there a doctor in the house ?
Dr Phil (@Docster) is the man. I’m just providing color commentary comparatively.

I’ve had someone use a pry bar to damage the tonneau cover with a locked tailgate on our F250 just to see what was inside (nothing). So I’ve quit locking it when empty. Fortunately, the tailgate wasn’t damaged but I had to order parts for the cover.

Whew, buddy. You’ve been missing out! It’s like a warm bidet the morning after taco night in Tijuana!

Ok, that’s exaggeration. If you have a nice tonneau and things you don’t want “eloping” in a parking lot, the electric lock can be nice when you have hands full to open/close tailgate.

Otherwise, key works manually just fine.
Dang, never had a tonneau either 😄 just bed caps and manual locks.
oh wait, got 2 bidets 🤙

Let's REALLY confirm Marketing's suspicions about us and start a poll for how many bidets we have...if rim mounts count, mark me down for three 🤣
