Speaking of gas prices

[TritonTR20]

I'm buying locking gas caps for the truck and boat! At the hotel at Cadillac/ Mitchell we had a full tank syphoned out of the truck. At these prices I don't want that to happen again!

[PIGSMALLIE]

That is ridiculous that someone would stoop that low to do something like that..If I ever saw anyone doing that,I would probably beat the crud out of them even if it wasn't mine.That is just riiculous!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lost about 10 gallons last june from the boat just after we brought it home. Got a locking gas cap and had it on since then. $1.65 a gallon was enough for somebody to steal back then, Now Who Knows. We now have it locked in a garage. What kind of upbringing instills in people that if they want something they just go take it from anyone who has it? Rather than work hard and save till you can afford it like my parents and grandparents taught me.

If someone try's to steal gas out of my boat, they're in for a rude awakening, I have to premix the 2 cycle oil in the tank.

Where can you get locking gas caps for boats??? Are they standard??

[TritonTR20]

A cap for my F250 is about $20. Am going to have to take the cap off the boat and try and match it up at the parts store for the boat. I boat holds 42gal and the truck has 28 gal. Between the two its a small fortune anymore, well worth the $40 of insurance.

who does sell locking caps for truck/boat? have 50 in the boat and 25 in the truck, never had any stolen, But the discussion has me worried that it may happen with gas only going up....

I got my locking gas cap at "Vic's Sports Center" in Brimfield, Ohio. They had to order mine but I have a 1977 Terry bass boat. I got the gas cap last june for $12.00. They now have most models in stock stock and they do ship dailey. Closed sun and wed. 330 673 7600. Hope this helps anyones needs. By the way BPS ,Cabeleas or Gander didn't have them. Don't know about now.

I decided I would take the good advice here, but couldn't find a locking cap. Solved the problem with super glue. Since then I have saved a bunch of money.

[motocross269]

Dan with your gas cap super glued you may want to think about investing in the Mast and Sails I am going to be selling this summer..
Either that or larger batteries

As time marches on, things really do come back into fashion.  I still remember the late 70's when a locking gas cap was a must.  Didn't totally get rid of them until the early 90's because the wife insisted.  It all came to an end when she took my car to the gas station one day and called, furious that she couldn't figure out how to unlock the cap (that was a very good day).  It was nice while it lasted...

Back then, one gas cap key often opened many other gas caps... ??

If the key were the issue, it would have...
