Default Punctured Gas tank

On news 12

They stated a jeep was punctured in the gas tank, possibly to steal the gas from what i could catch towards the end of the news.


I am not sure how accessible the gas tank is on our cars as the car may be too low to get too, but be careful out there. Thieves are getting creative.

What a disgrace

Our gas tanks are not exposed, we have no worries

Jeep tanks are wide open, in the back.

They put this on the news to protect you - but in reality - they just gave the idea to tons more theives and idiots a new idea to try, and the problem will only grow now.
