My 2006 2720SL is closed up in the garage at the moment, so I can't check. But I am quite sure there is an exit window, and a big red EXIT sign, in the rear just as Dr Carver describes. I'm not sure how that would work if the rock guard is closed and latched, though.

Just as an aside, some folks have found that if they get on the bed and move very close to the rear wall, their weight will cause the bed to pivot and drop them on the ground. I've tried this in my TM, and it doesn't move at all - and I am reasonably heavy. On the other hand, I can lift the front edge of the bed quite easily and have done so on many occasions when I am working on a project that requires both inside and outside access at the same moment. Easy to lift, wide opening, no damage - for me, it is the way to go.

YMMV, but as suggested above, it is easy to try it both ways in your TM.
