However, on the expressway, less than five weeks ago, in austin, texas (we live in atlanta and was visiting our son,) the tailgate came down and a piece of luggage fell out in heavy traffic and i was only notified of the problem after several drivers came up beside us and yelled out their windows that the tailgate was down.

Sadly it had some of my wife
