The mid-gate is one of the top features I wanted for camping! Tonneau cover, air mattress, and heat all night long! 😁
The GM midgate is a wild feature to see in action. It debuted on the '01-13 Avalanche/Escalade EXT and was available on the Hummer SUT. GM continued this legacy on the current Silverado and Sierra EVs.
Nobody outside of GM adopted it, but it can occasionally come in handy. Would you want your truck to have one?
