[QUOTE="RLRaptor, post: 1668078, member: 43812"] Curious to know how easy it is to siphon gas or otherwise have gas stolen from a gen 2. Earlier while I was driving, I noticed my miles to empty quickly drop from 300 miles to 240. A 60 mile drop after just 15 minutes of casual driving. Concerned, I pulled over to see if there were any leaks but didn't see or smell anything obvious that might indicate a gas leak. While idle, I see the gas continue to drop despite being parked. I bring it over to a Ford dealership nearby and after assessing the guy there says that most likely someone siphoned gas from my raptor. I always thought it would be difficult to steal gas from modern vehicles like the raptor but I understand not impossible. But I wonder if there might be other factors. I did leave my raptor parked outside for a day in Texas heat. Temps got up to above 100 so I wonder if that could play a part. That said I'm not sure how fast gas evaporates or if a truck could really lose that much gas if parked outside for day. I wanted to see if anyone had any other ideas to what might have caused this [/QUOTE]
