You have a great option for the 2014 Dodge Ram for a rack that will allow for tailgate access without having to unload.
The RockyMounts Backstage, part # RKY10002 is a swing-away platform style rack that provides a secure, well protected rack for your bikes. It secures the bikes to the rack with wheel clamps, avoiding frame contact. The integrated hitch and cable lock add security as well.
The Backstage's swing away mechanism lets it move away from the vehicle by rotating 180 degrees out to the passenger side. With 48 inches of arm length, this will easily clear most truck beds and allow full access without having to move around the rack while the bikes are installed.
I've included video reviews of this rack so you can compare their features and performance for yourself. I've also included a picture of a rather unique application of the Backstage that shows its full range of hatch access.
