Well, it had to happen. Right across the street from me, in fact. This prompted me to make a visit to my local Napa Auto Parts store in Camas to purchase a locking gas cap. Unfortunately, another Chrysler Town & Country van owner beat me to it. Fortunately, Napa was able to get me one the next day.
Note to Chrysler: Add locking gas caps to the base model of your new cars or join other automakers who install gas tank latches inside their cars.
It's apparent our gas situation has opened up more than just one can of worms. It's a sad day when the price of gas makes people turn to desperate measures simply to get enough gas in their car to take them to work or school. All the more reason to focus efforts on public transportation alternatives - isn't that right, Vancouver, Clark County? (I support Light Rail - most definitely)
The fact of the matter, folks, is that this price will only go up. In Europe, they've been paying twice the amount the US has been paying for a gallon of gas. In England, they're paying approximately $8 per gallon only they sell it by the litre.
This commodity is becoming so precious; I wouldn't be surprised if gas stations start doling it out in specimen cups...
A Vespa is looking better all the time...
