Very nice, Jonce. Troy slapped together a one-off fabric cargo panel for
me to try. I haven't yet installed the snaps because I've been wondering
what to use. What be these "hard action snaps" of which you speak?

This will be very handy for me. As I've mentioned, my driveway is pretty
sloped and when returning from camping trips I back the van down it for
easy unloading into the garage. The gear tends to shift after driving
washboard roads and last Sunday when I got back, I could see through the
hatch's window that my wheel leveler ramps and my little charcoal
barbecue were leaning against it. There was nothing for it but to open
the hatch and try to catch things as they spilled out. Got one ramp, the
other two items hit the pavement.
