I’ve done that a few times. What’s the cut out in the tailgate for? That would be a real nuisance.
Probably for spreading gravel in a narrow strip.
Also common on grain trucks.

That is a grain door. Grain is dropped into a collection well and augured into grain silo.

My father's KB5 which he owned for 50 years had one, and I always wondered what that was for but never thought to ask.

I don't know if it was dumb or luck, or maybe dumb luck. I picked up a pallet of concrete from home depot, and immediately had a blowout. My father came to get me and get my jack and spare tire. Changed the tire out and on the way home one of the pallets collapsed. Since I have siderails on my trailer, i have to put 3 pallets up so the forklift guy could get it in level since he can't place it in the trailer. I'm lucky it was strapped otherwise I think it would have gone. Rest of the way home at 25mph with my hazards on ****ting my pants praying it would hold.

Two days ago I cut( harvested ) all my lawns. Today I'm out raking up the grass. I heard it coming - a loud buzzing sound. My first thought - a giant Asian Murder Hornet. I hit the ground like I'd been shot with a cannon. It was just a loud horse fly. Luckily, I'm very remote and nobody saw this act of bravery.

Why don’t you haul the pallets on your dump truck?
