  Hey, glad you reminded me, Frank!

  I have bent the front of my Dakota's bed (a full beer keg broke loose
from it's moorings :( ), but found that it was easy as pie to bend back
by hand. A little too easy, I fear.

  A buddy of mind has a '96, and had some rental equipment bend the
shit out of his front bed. He drove with the bed smacked against
the cab for at least 6 months, so nice guy that I am, I bent his
bed back by hand. Lots of missing paint!

  Anyone else noticed this?
