Patent 6886877 was granted and assigned to Mitsubishi on May, 2005 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
There is provided a vehicle with a tailgate, which can be provided in a variety of vehicles without being restricted by e.g., the sizes of the vehicles, thus considerably improving usability. The tailgate is comprised of a first tailgate having one end thereof mounted on the rear end of a bed, and a second tailgate extending from the other end of the first tailgate. A tailgate telescoping device drives the second tailgate to move in a direction toward the one end of the first tailgate.
