I personally don’t like having the gas cap tether. I don’t want something that can swing down and hit my paint if I drop it.

 

Ive never seen this before! Gashole was my first mod 4.5 years ago.

 

I have one of on my second gen

 

What is with everyone freaking out about a piece of abs hitting their bedside? I let mine hang every time and I have no scratches…and I’m not gentle about it either. I’ve got scratches from the trees and shrubs on the trail, not from a plastic gas cap…I don’t understand the fear

 

Seems like this struck a nerve.

 

Right? Completely unnecessary take. There is a kind gentleman trying to give these away for free… if you’re not in to it, you’re welcome to pass!

 

It’s been an ongoing topic in another thread lmao kinda like “what tires can I fit on my stock _______”

 

I mean do what you want, it’s just funny that there’s sooooooo many people in another thread talking about this exact thing and how the abs gas cap is so evil. It’s a convenience thing and if that’s your bag then get on with your bad self, I just don’t see the point nor hype. And they are free sooooo am I really hurting anything?

 

I guess I need to remember that some people here own pavement princesses and wouldn’t ever dream of taking their truck down a dirt road for fun

 

I have a gashole and as many scratches from offroading as anyone else here. Scratches are one thing, for me its about not getting gas on the paint.

 

I can understand that concern but wouldn’t you get a higher concentration if the gas actually dropped on your paint from the nozzle? I’m not trying to argue or stir the pot here, just trying to understand the hype. To me this is just a cool doodad that adds a factor of convenience, and free is never a bad thing when talking about goods, I’m not trying to talk anyone out of buying/scooping up one of these…I just wanna understand your justification for it. If you get it because it’s cool? Right on, same reason I wanna put a marbled shift knob in my AT Sport. Help me understand where the logic is in protecting your truck from a seemingly (to me anyway) nonissue in my experience. Does this make sense? Just seems like an excuse and cover for spending money on a doodad that does nothing more than look cool. I realize this is not the place for this but there has been quite a bit of discussion on these and my ADHD brain can’t let it go.

 

It’s really not that deep, he’s giving it away from free….. there’s no need to tell him you’re not taking it and why you don’t like them lmao

 

My bad, as mentioned there has been quite a bit of discussion as of late about the item in question. More of an impulse reply. And it has nothing to do with his item honestly it was directed at Dirt which is why I quoted him and not the one giving it away. I don’t really care if you buy one and I’m not hating on it, if that’s what you like cool. It’s just the reasons people have for buying them, I mean if the cap was really a danger to the paint don’t you think Toyota would have foreseen that? But it’s whatever. It’s just a convenience item with a cool factor for some.

Didn’t mean to distract from the classifieds.

Carry on.

 

move the retention strap to the hole to the left and the gasclit works even betterer!

 

You’re my hero sir

 

well longbed, i guess if nothing else i now know, or think i know, your not one of the many truck owners out there specifically hoping for a high resale with a pristine truck when the fad/trend/new/whatever wears off.

 

meh... resale is something my kids will have to worry about after im dead

I drive accordingly

 

Never selling my truck. I’ve wanted a taco since I was a kid lol. Dream truck boys

 

I loved my ranger growing up, never planned to own anything else.

But ford ran the ranger into the fucking ground

tacos are the only decent truck left

 

I concur.
