Grand Island GMC – How the MultiPro™ Tailgate on the 2026 GMC Sierra 1500 Makes Everyday Jobs Easier around Hastings, NE
The 2026 GMC Sierra 1500 is built to work smart, and the MultiPro™ Tailgate proves it every time you open the bed. This world’s first six-function tailgate brings real utility to job sites and driveways around Hastings, NE, letting you configure the gate to the task at hand instead of trying to make your task fit a one-position tailgate. Whether you’re loading tools, hauling landscaping materials, or setting up a mobile workspace, MultiPro adapts in seconds. Pair it with the available CarbonPro® composite bed — engineered to resist dents, scratches, and corrosion — and you get a cargo solution that handles daily wear with confidence. Add 12 standard cargo tie-downs, available bed lighting, and a spray-on bedliner, and the Sierra becomes more than a truck — it becomes your rolling command center.
MultiPro’s six functions cover the workday from dawn to dusk. The primary gate opens like a traditional tailgate, while the inner gate creates a second tier for longer items. The integrated load stop helps prevent cargo from sliding out, and the easy-access position reduces reach when grabbing gear near the cab. Need a stable work surface? Fold the inner gate into a desk-height panel that’s perfect for plans, laptops, or a quick invoice. When you’re wrapping up, the full-width step supports confident footing for stepping into the bed. For tailgates of a different kind, the available MultiPro Tailgate Audio System by KICKER adds sound without taking up bed space — ideal for jobsite briefings at lunch or a little music after hours.
- Primary Gate: Standard open-close function for everyday loading.
- Easy Access: Inner gate folds to reduce reach into the bed.
- Full-Width Step: Built-in step supports stable entry and exit.
- Inner Gate Load Stop: Helps secure longer materials on the top tier.
- Second-Tier Loading: Inner gate positions to create an upper shelf.

Integration across the Sierra amplifies MultiPro’s usefulness. The available ProGrade® Trailering System and in-vehicle trailering app streamline hitching and checklists, while the 13.4-inch Premium GMC Infotainment System with Google built-in compatibility lets you mirror work calendars, route to job addresses, and stay connected. For frequent load-ins, consider the X31 Off-Road Package on select trims for added underbody protection and hill descent control when job sites take you off the pavement. If you regularly carry heavy, awkward items, the available CarbonPro® bed and MultiPro step work together to keep loading and unloading simple and secure.
