    Sorry. Didn't see this until just now. I wouldn't have been able to make it anyway, though, as I just got home from a rough 24-hour shift at 0700 this morning and promptly crashed until about 1300. Appreciate the invitation. Will try very hard to make be next one.

    Proper way to tie down cover

    OK, this is so basic that it's probably a dumb question, so please excuse my ignorance. I just got a reel of cord to tie down the bed cover on my deuce but I can't seem to find a guide that shows the "correct" way to tie it down. Can anyone here direct me to a source? Thanks, mdh
