Hi JP!
Since I'm one of the people who mentioned the archives, I want you to
know that one of the benefits of our forum is a searchable database of all
topics and correspondence (good and bad and indifferent!!!) going back for
years. It can be found at
http://www.escribe.com/automotive/american/chevygmtruck/index.html . It goes
back more than 4 years because the thread about swamp coolers (of all
things!!) is still there. This also makes you realize that everything you
write is very public and can be found eventually by anyone on the web!! I
found this out after a woman contacted me about....guess what? ...swamp
coolers!!! She is one of those environmental types who was looking for
alternative ways to heat and cool her home. Fair warning...what you write
can come back to haunt you some day!!
I'm not sure what you mean by compulse, but you do not have to keep a
single email from the forum as you will see when you go to the archive. It
is all there.
My opinion on the car cover is to check out the classified section of one
of the car/truck magazines like Road & Track. They list the type of covers
you are looking for.
Have Fun!!!

Hi everybody!
I've been on the list since november and really enjoy being part of this
forum, even though my personal input today is very thin, due to a real lack
of technical knowledge. I also realized that when I did provide any info, I
did it directly to the guy asking the question, when maybe some other folks
in the group could have been interested in my answer too. My mistake!!! I'll
do better in the future, I promise.
Archives : I read lately several people mentioning them. I personaly keep
all
the oletruck emails in my own database (which is getting quite heavy with
about 1500 emails). Is there a way to compulse the whole database, instead
of
asking the same questions all the time ? (apparently there are are some
treasures in there from some people who are not with us anymore, and I guess
they'd be proud to know they still live through the list)
Second question : I'm looking for a breathable cover for my truck. It's
gonna
be stored in a partially closed garage, and I want to protect it from
humidity, dust, scratches and everything. If someone has a suggestion, I'd
really appreciate a tip or two.
Thanks to everyone for this very interesting forum. There sure is quite some
diversity among the whole of us, and little intestine rumble sometimes, but
when it comes to serious stuff about our trucks, and when someone really
needs help, I see a lot of brotherhood among this group, and this is just
great!!! Thanks again to all of you. JP
