The invention provides two or more ramp members that are freely positionable along the rear of the cargo bed of a small truck to which the device is attached. The ramp members, when not deployed in use are folded onto a frame and are of an overall shape and size similar to conventional bumpers used for pick-up and other light trucks, extending across the rear of the vehicle. The invention also provides a tailgate assembly with storage means for a pickup truck vehicle. Twin tailgate doors are pivotally secured to the body of the pickup and are each movable about their respective and substantially vertical axes. Each tailgate door also forms a cargo storage apparatus, integrally. A locking mechanism may be provided. The cargo storage compartment may have various shelves and partitions therein; thermal insulation material may be added such that a compartment can serve as a food or beverage cooler; and lighting of various sorts may be added.
