Cargo Tie Downs

There are cargo tie downs in the rear cargo area that
you can use to strap cargo in.

The tie downs are also used to secure the cargo cover
panel storage bag or the tonneau cover storage bag
if your vehicle is equipped with either. For more
information see “Cargo Cover Panels” earlier in this
section and Tonneau Cover on page 2-78.

All-Weather Cargo Area

Your vehicle has the ability to operate in many different
configurations (cargo panels on or off, midgate up or
down, rear glass in or out), allowing the cargo and
passenger area to be open to the environment. To allow
the vehicle to operate in these configurations, it is
equipped with features to help it resist the elements and
protect cargo inside the cargo area. Parts of the
water management system, which is designed to quickly
direct water out of the cargo box, are the top drain
grates, side rail channels, catch cups, midgate drain,
cargo area floor drains and the rubber cargo mat.
