New Dakota Owner

Howdy!

A week ago today, I purchased a new '03 Dakota SXT Club Cab, Gray (or
"Graphite Metallic" in marketing talk), 6 cyl, 5 speed. It's the first
truck I've ever owned, my previous vehicles being all sports or sporty cars
(Mazda RX7's to be exact). But, the more I drive it, the more I like it! I
can finally haul a full sheet of plywood from the Depot without cutting it
into 4 pieces! :)

I've got the Line-X bed liner going in on Monday, but I'd also like to get
a tonneau cover in either new or near-new condition. I've been looking
around at the sub-$200 soft tops and it looks as though the Saddleman cover
with the "Flip Lock" fits the bill. I don't have the part number handy...
Anyone have good or bad to say about this one?

I think I'll be in this truck for the long haul, so to speak, so hopefully
I'll eventually gain enough knowledge to be a contributing member of the
list instead of just a lurker...

Thanks in advance!

-Conrad
