I was at a local hardware store bankruptcy sale recently (another Home
Depot casualty) and bought one of these poles because 'I need this thing,
besides, its 20% off'. It has those little spring loaded push buttons that
lets you expand the pole to within a couple inches of bed width, then you
turn it and the screw pads at the end make it tight (supposedly). I haven't
used it yet. I'm trying to figure out how to store it in the (club) cab without
getting in the way. I also picked up one o' dem emergency nylon tow ropes
with the hooks at each end, and a ratchet tie down thingie. All of these
are made by the same company (don't recall offhand who).
