POS VETT Posted April 15, 2022 Report Share Posted April 15, 2022 This photo was taken earlier this week. A '21 Toyota Highlander came in for a fuel tank replacement. The damage costs just about $1200 in parts and $1080 in labor. The tank has a capacity of 17.9 gallons. At about $4/gallon, the gasoline was worth $72 if the tank was full. The numbers boggle my mind. Can you see the hole? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otis Nice Posted April 15, 2022 Report Share Posted April 15, 2022 Can't stand folks who steal anything from anyone. That's a new one. Not stolen gas really but I've never seen a hole drilled in the tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBQdDude Posted April 15, 2022 Report Share Posted April 15, 2022 I have ben seeing this in the news. With the prices you quoted I would have a melt down. Not saying you are out of line on price just the whole situation. Glad I park ours in a garage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitch Posted July 13, 2022 Report Share Posted July 13, 2022 The real pisser is they probably only bring a 5 gallon can and let the rest spill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RymerC Posted July 13, 2022 Report Share Posted July 13, 2022 what would it take like half an hour to drain 17 gallons through that little hole? did they hack off the cats while they waited for the fuel to drain? good thing the crackheads haven't figured out multi-tasking yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got an '18 F150 3.5TT equipped for towing and it's got a 36 gal tank--single, not dual. I have to apply for a loan when I fill up from empty.... 😰 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the 36 gallon tank, but when fuel was ~$5/gallon I spent $175 filling it. That sort of sucked. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
