LOL! Good job with the find. About 5 years ago, I met up with a guy in the darkness of morning in a store parking lot. We went upa mountain from there and when we got to our spot 20 minutes later, I realized my tailgate was open and my brand new Encore muzzleloader was gone! I had to drive all the way back tothe lot in the snow and was thankful it was still there. I would have figured someone found it by then, but got lucky. Of course now I make sure the tailgate is latched properly.
