I use that heavy silicone suspension grease that Energy Suspension sells.
Watch you head though. I constantly get that crap in my hair when I lean in to get something.

I took a hand towel and rolled it long ways and put it in the crease of the tailgate, then slammed the tailgate shut on it. No more squeeks for me.

I've heard that putting rubber hose over the large pin on the window helps as well. I haven't tried this yet, but it seems like it would help. Also removing the weather strip and building it out behind it will help.
