I like this option from McGard.
Tailgate Lock; Contains 1 Lock and 1 Key - Tailgate Lock - Automotive - Products

As well as a locking Tailgate handle.

definitely a deterrent, i remember last summer my mom was in Yuma unloading bales at the race track, dropped the tailgate, grab a hay bale and went into the stable, came back out and her tailgate was gone. doesn't take long at all!
