    Cooldown before Shutdown?

    I'm not sure how important it is to idle for a few minutes the truck after parking.. I think most of the time you are running it at a very low load the last minute or so before parking. For example, I recently pulled a 3,500# boat on a long trip on the interstate. The chart in the manual says...

    Tonneau cover and bed pockets

    I just bought a 21' 1500 crew cab with the 5'7" bed. I would like to add a folding, hard tonneau cover like the Bakflip. But I also need a custom rack installed above the bed using the truck-bed's post holes. Will the tonneau cover interfere with the post holes? I had a retracting...
