    I think if you had mentioned this in your first post, you would've received better responses.

    I had the same problem. My solution: I stood at the back on the ground and held the rear wheel while closing the tailgate.

    This sounds like less of an observation and more like an active participant testimony. Just sayin’.

    I thought First Gen was full of Boomers talking about how great the 1911 and M1 Garand and Johh Wayne were?
