A tailgate position indicating device for preventing loss of cargo and accidents includes a coupler that is configured to couple to a tailgate of a pickup truck proximate to an upper panel of the tailgate. An object is coupled to and extends from the coupler so that the object extends from the tailgate past the upper panel of the tailgate. The object is configured to be viewed in a rearview mirror of the pickup truck when the tailgate is closed to indicate to a driver of the pickup truck the position of the tailgate to prevent loss of cargo while driving and damage to the tailgate while operating the pickup truck in reverse gear.
