A vehicle assembly includes a front door of a vehicle, a detachable pillar assembly, and a rear door that is aft the front door along a longitudinal axis of the vehicle. The rear door is configured to selectively pivotably couple to the detachable pillar assembly. A method of providing an opening to a vehicle includes detaching a pillar assembly from a structure of a vehicle, and pivoting a rear door of a vehicle together with the pillar assembly from a closed position to an open position. The rear door pivots relative to the pillar assembly when the pillar assembly is latched to the vehicle.
