Will the tailgate lock on a Lariat + Luxury package work in conjunction with the door locks when you lock or unlock the truck with your key fob? Please say it's not a totally separate, key only, lock.

Yes, when you unlock the doors it unlocks the tailgate. I tried this on the trainer model and it worked.

Unfortunately, it doesn't actually lower with the keyfob though like on the Santa Cruz. I'd recommend getting a damper installed so that you can at least pull the latch and let it fall on its own. This is useful when you have your hands full.

Correct. It’ll make it more difficult to steal unless the their has the tools to remove it.
