      We have a gated and alarm-activated two-car carport in the back of the house, so my Mustang and my sister's car are safe, but my F-150 is parked on the street.

      If I ever get my truck's gas-tank punctured and the gas stolen, I'm going to lose it.

            It's only a matter of time before some of these guys go BOOM. Drilling into a gas tank? That's insane.

              I was talking about this this morning and I was told that this happened back in the 70's too.

                    Yeah I've been waiting to her a report about these poor gas thieves getting blown to kingdom come.

                      Yeah but I don't care about underground gas storages, I care about my truck gas tank.

                          I wouldn't really want that to happen to a car parked in the driveway right beside my house.

                            Yep only a matter of time before we all go "Road Warrior". "The juice the precious Juice"

                            However the time comes when I'm sopping up spilled gas with my bandana to squeeze the last few drops into my tank i'm biking from then on.
                            Lo there do I see my Father.
                            Lo there do I see my Mother and my Sisters and my Brothers.
                            Lo there do I see the line of my people back to the begining.
                            Lo they do call me.
                            They bid me take my place among them.
                            In the halls of Valhalla where the brave may live forever.

                              It was done to my Camaro 5 months ago, Silly me i only had a locking cap on it sould have left the standard cap on it so i wouldn.t need to replace a gas tank, Guess that is what i get for being rude and making a thief have to work to steal
