    Had my whole tank emptied a few years back, and have since been sporting a nice locking gas cap.

    If anyone remembers the FIRST RoboCop movie? You know that one commercial they spoofed where the car theif breaks into the Ford Probe and when sitting in the driver's seat those steel bands wrap around him and electrocute him to death? They need to seriously implement such a device but for the outside of your vehicle as well.

    Cruel as it may sound........if they have NO REGARD for your car, why should you have regard for their personal well being? I know I would still sleep well at night knowing I snuffed out some POS trying to tamper with my car

    Sorry to hear that happened to man!

    Is the GP gas tank different than the Imp gas tank? The Imp tank has a mesh to prevent a tube going in for siphoning. Only way to get gas out of my tank is through factory hoses or drill a hole.

    As for locking gas caps, they don't do much good to stop someone determined to get your gas. All I would own one for is to keep people from sticking something into my tank, not getting something out.

    they just push the mesh into the tank, almost all newer cars have an anti siphon mechanism that is useless except to keep the owner from doing it

    Happend to me 2 months ago. I filled 'er up, and the next morning, my gas door was open and the cap was off. They got about 3 gallons. Cops finger printed it for me and couldn't get anything. So, we sat a 5 gal gas jug on the porch with water in it last night. They are always stealing stuff from us.

    should filled the jug with piss instead. i always had locking cap on my car cause i get the feeling someone might put something inside the tank.

    I like the idea, but that just doesn't sound quite safe, being a gas cap and all...

    It'd be like a single-use car alarm!
