A vehicle includes a cargo bed having a floor, side walls and a rear end opening with an endgate pivotally connected at the rear end opening. The endgate is pivotable between a vertical position covering the rear end opening and a horizontal position exposing the rear end opening for cargo loading and unloading. The endgate has a pass-through opening formed therein and includes a door integrally contained within the endgate. The door is pivotable with respect to the endgate between a closed position covering the pass-through opening and an open position to allow loading and unloading of cargo through the pass-through opening when the endgate is in the vertical position.
