Ah, no wonder I still see people driving like gas is free; they stole it. Okay, that makes sense now.

If you didn’t vote for Trump, you cannot complain about the gas prices. Because if you voted for Biden or didn’t vote, this is exactly what you voted for!!!

This must be "Build Back Better!"

Yesterday some body poked a hole in the bottom of my gas tank and stole 15 gallons. Found out when I filled up my tank and it started to leak on the concrete today.

The price of fuel is theft in itself. Greed leads to greed leads to greed.

[MetalheadMatt]

Carmakers are going to have to start manufacturing their vehicles with gas tank covers. This is just ridiculous.

Easy solution for car dealerships: Only keep a small amount of gas in the cars. They can't steal what isn't there. Why would you have a significant amount of gas in a new car that's just sitting on the lot most of the time? Even more of a head-scratcher: Apparently there's a gas station chain in Australia called Servos, and they sell gas on the honor system -- IOW they allow people to pump the gas first and then pay. Well, it's no surprise that they're seeing a huge increase in people driving off without paying - and it's costing them millions. So now they're resorting to cameras that read the license plate... Of course, the obvious question is, why not make customers pay ahead of time (the way it's done in the states)? Who thought the honor system was a great idea?! The lack of common sense with some businesses is mind-boggling sometimes.

Stole it from family members boat, 60 gallons lost just last night.

[PimplyPig]

I mean are you surprised? Shouldn't be...

My gas gauge is messed up and always reads E, and my gas was stolen last week. Mechanic was treating me awful and expected me to pay them $190 to figure out that my gas is empty. Of course they didn't believe me that my gas was stolen even though I put a full tank of gas in it just a day before. I gave them $150... Then the Ubers to get to and from were close to $100. So I had about $40 of gas stolen and had to pay $250 because of it. 😏

May be y’all can go live in the trailer or the car.
Imagine the savings for rent or Mortgage. 😜

[GGray.]

hmm... good thing most people are switching to EVs

[Rl]

Who could blame them? I would have done the same if I couldt afford to fill my tank.

Stealing Gas should be regulated.🇺🇸
Cuz safety is Number 1 priority.

Gas related disorders account for 7 billion dollars of Healthcare.

Now imagine American pumps using the strategy they used in Iraq with ISIS.
Hire Gasoline USIS to loot gas from rival pumps and sell it in black market.😋
