I have watched the 1st 10 seconds over and over again. Am I going crazy? The rear tailgate seems to open from passenger to driver's side BUT then later in the video it opens from driver's to passenger's side.

The beginning of the video he had the clip mirrored. Opens from driver to passenger

Forward facing camera reverses the first image. (Look where the steering wheel is).
Yep. He's using the "Selfie Cam" mode of the phone/gopro on a stick...

Images are reversed on the screen to it acts like a mirror and it's easier to intuitively frame yourself correctly.

Also, he apparently works at a "broF" dealership:

If he was really clever he would have mirrored those portions back in post.

The mane thing is that it's a Swinging Gate instead of a Drop Down Tailgate like the EBs had.

Yes, I'm one of those who whish FoMoCo would have given us the Original Version. The ability to backup to the family pond, drop the tailgate and fish with my grandson...... oh well.... guess I'll just have to do that with the truck....
