I Know It's A Nice Car, But WTF?

[FallenAce]

So I bought a 2008 Chevy Cobalt Revolution http://68.58.151.87/car/angle.jpg and this morning I go to get gas because I'm on "E". I open the gas cover, which doesn't lock on this car, and someone apparently cut off my gas cap and tried to siphon my tank last night.

My only solace is I had no gas to steal, but dammit they got my gas cap.

Seriously, wtf?

Sorry, I just felt the need to vent my frustration. Now I have to go to AutoZone and buy a locking cap.

I'm two days away from making my first car payment, by the by.

That sucks! (Nice car BTW).

I suppose with gas prices soaring, there are going to be more and more incidents like this.

[topperharley]

Man, that sucks. Hopefully the person that did that will accidentally ingest gasoline from the next car he tries to steal gas from and die a horrible, painful death.

Anyway, congrats on the new car!

<quote from Pulp Fiction:>You don't f*ck with another man's vehicule </quote>. Once I had kids shoot paintball on my car. I even had one of my *rare* Mazdaspeed emblem stolen. Thank god, I moved into a quieter place. Now my car is kinda *hidden*.

You don't f*ck with another man's automobile. Once I had kids shoot paintball on my car. I even had one of my *rare* Mazdaspeed emblem stolen. Thank god, I moved into a quieter place. Now my car is kinda *hidden*.

Someone stole the Honda emblem off of my car once. I hope they had "fun" with that.

lol you can't even siphon gas outta the new cars...or it's really hard at least. (I tried it once, don't worry, I was trying to transfer gas from one of my families cars to the next...nothing illegal )

But yeah, I can see where those crooks were coming from...Gas is $4.65 over here

[sphere]

Try living in Canada, where we get charged per litre.... $1.40 per litre, to be ballparking. Comes to around $5.50-5.60/gal... and the only vehicle I can drive is a 2000 Chevy Silverado. :s good $150 to fill that bastard up...

Oh but back on topic, nice car you have there, you pay cash?

[Sveppi]

That sucks :/ Makes me glad that my gas cap covering locks.
Nice looking car though

[LZ_69]

Steeling gas!?!? things are getting out of hand...

Can you go to jail for stealing gas from another car?! if so for how long? any lawers out there?

[crazyanimal]

We should expect more and more of this to happen at the current rate gas prices are going. Yeah, I imagine that you could be charged with a misdemeanor for property theft, but I don't know if you'd get jail time, I'm not a lawer, sorry.
