Damn... I hope not. I am at a loss as to why anybody would need a dampener on a tail gate?
As has been stated many times - no one NEEDS a tailgate damper (or adaptive cruise, or push button start, or pedestrian detection, etc, etc, etc). People just find it to be a useful feature. Once you've had it it is hard to not have it. Now that I've gotten used to keyless entry with push button start, I'd have a hard time going back to pulling my keys out of my pocket all the time. I LOVE that feature. I don't NEED it, but I really like it. Just like I would like a tailgate dampener.

Exactly. I can't count the number of times I've walked up to the F-150, grasped the handle then stood there like an idiot waiting for the door to unlock before I remember I have to pull the fob out of my pocket.
