Locking Fuel Cap

Someone siphoned diesel from my son's 08. Has anyone purchased a locking type cap. He doesn't want a locking fuel door.

May want to rethink the cap.Had a friend that locked his awhile back because of theft.The fuel tank is plastic and can be drilled with little risk if diesel.Ater filling his truck that night they came back with a 5gal container and dilled a hole in the bottom of the tank to get the fuel.Of course they let the other 33 gals run out on the driveway and he had to replace the fuel tank.

Sounds like someone needs a little S&W protection in lieu of a locking cap. I hope noone decides to drill my tank or they will not be walking away from the scene of the crime.
