Mossy Motors – Why Gretna, LA Drivers Are Choosing the 2026 GMC Sierra 1500’s MultiPro Tailgate and ProGrade Trailering
When your workday and weekend share the same bed, the details of how a truck loads, secures, and manages cargo can make or break your routine. That’s where the 2026 GMC Sierra 1500’s available MultiPro™ Tailgate and available ProGrade® Trailering System shine. Instead of forcing you to adapt to your truck, these tools adapt to your tasks – from nimble, one-person loading to confident hook-ups and on-road trailer checks. If you split time between job sites, sports fields, and coastal getaways around Gretna, LA, these two features quickly become must-haves you’ll use almost every day.
The MultiPro™ Tailgate is the world’s first available six-function design, and it’s more than a party trick. In tight parking lots or on uneven jobsite terrain, you get multiple ways to support long materials, climb in safely, and position your gear without improvising ramps or stacking lumber. Pair it with the available CarbonPro® composite bed – which resists dents, dings, and corrosion – and you get a cargo area that can take a beating while still looking sharp. The available MultiPro Tailgate Audio System by KICKER is a bonus for Saturday tailgates or work breaks, blending convenience with a bit of fun.
- Primary hinge: Use like a conventional tailgate for everyday loading and unloading.
- Inner gate: Drop only the smaller inner gate for closer reach without fully opening the main panel.
- Full-width step: Convert the inner gate into a sturdy step for easier bed access.
- Load stop: Flip up stops to secure longer items without fear of sliding.
- Work surface: Create a stable platform for laptops, clipboards, or quick measurements.
- KICKER audio: Available weather-resistant speakers plug right into your downtime.
Hooking up a trailer can be the most stressful moment of your day. The available ProGrade® Trailering System aims to remove the guesswork by integrating guidance and monitoring where it belongs – right in your Sierra’s 13.4-inch diagonal Premium GMC Infotainment System. Build a custom profile for your trailer, track status information, and follow on-screen prompts that help you align the hitch with precision. With the available integrated trailer brake controller tied into the ABS, you can apply measured brake force to compatible electric trailer brakes, helping enhance control in traffic or on slick roads.
Beyond features, the Sierra’s underlying hardware backs you up. Pair ProGrade® Trailering with the available Max Trailering Package to benefit from an upgraded rear axle, enhanced cooling radiator, revised shock tuning, heavier-duty rear springs, and a 220-amp alternator – useful details when loads are heavy or temperatures rise. And if your weekends involve primitive campsites or levee roads, consider AT4’s 2-inch factory lift with Rancho® shocks or AT4X’s Multimatic® DSSV dampers and front and rear electronic locking differentials for traction that doesn’t quit when the pavement does.
Why does this matter for day-to-day life around the West Bank and the river bends toward the Gulf? Because small efficiencies add up. The MultiPro™ Tailgate saves steps, protects your back, and shortens loading time. ProGrade® Trailering reduces setup stress and helps you build repeatable habits that pay off each time you hitch up. Together, they help the truck work smarter so you can focus on the job, the game, or the fish biting at first light.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Can I add the MultiPro Tailgate and ProGrade Trailering together?
Yes. Many Sierra 1500 configurations allow both features, giving you flexible cargo solutions at the bed and integrated tools for hitching and monitoring on the road.
Do I need the Max Trailering Package if I only tow occasionally?
If you tow infrequently and within lighter ranges, you may not need it. If your trailer approaches heavier loads, the package’s upgraded axle, cooling, suspension, and alternator provide helpful headroom.
Which trim is best for off-road towing near the marsh or sandy boat launches?
AT4 and AT4X offer hardware tuned for rough surfaces. AT4’s 2-inch lift and Rancho® shocks improve clearance and control, while AT4X adds Multimatic® DSSV dampers and locking differentials for maximum traction when pulling from slick launches or uneven ground.
