S550 Gas tank

[BrazukaV8]

Idk if this have been discussed already but I'm pretty upset. I came home about an hour later I had to go get something in my car and noticed the gas tank wide open. This is the second time this happens. I hate ford for not making the lil gas tank door lock once you lock the car. All my other cars except my 96 mustang lock. Is there a cap I can buy to lock and prevent someone from dumping crap in my gas tank?

Not compatible with 2015+ Mustangs, the new filler is slightly different.

^Bummer. Make things universal, Ford!

I hate the easy fuel thing. I get drips all the time from the nozzles touching the plastic when removing. Also putting fuel stabilizers in is a pain in the ass. Is there a way we can convert to the old style?

Yeah I don't really like that the gas door doesn't lock.. I too am concerned some asshole might put something in there.. I think it's a terrible idea.

Imagine the damage some clown could do if he sneaked into a dealer at night with a funnel...

I think the best part of this accessory is the $10 installation charge - does that mean a ford technician shows up at the gas station to install my fuel plug every time I fill up? :headbonk:
