I must be the odd ball out here, I tie my awning down in locations that are windy (like the beach) and the only time I use any kind of pads under the jacks is when I am on soft ground (again, like the beach). With all that said, my tie downs are the type that have the large springs on the ends, when I can see those springs extend for an inch or so, I do bring the awning in. In addition, if I know the forecast calls for storms or winds greater than 20 mph, I do bring the awning in when we leave the rig. And congrats on the new rig from a fellow 'eer!!
