What's the problem with it? Score one for GOOD NEW TECH. Unless these cause vacuum issues, etc. etc.

It's so much easier, I vastly prefer it.

These have more issues and leaks, they also cost 10x to replace. Sometimes they have a vac issue that makes odd noises too lol

I have capless on the F-150 and had it on the fusion before that. It's great.

The BMW has a cap. When i bought this car on November, it was the first time I'd had to use a gas cap in 10 years lol.

Steve,

Congratulations on the new car. I was in Orlando hanging out with the mouse so I missed all the details.

This is almost as good as getting Jon Voight’s LeBaron.

Good luck with it!

I think it looks just as good without the rear spoiler.

Hahaha!! Did he bite George or Kramer?

Steve's new 580 is awesome. Selenite Gray is beautiful. I think it looks better than his white one.

The protection is well worth it. What will you drive while it's in the shop?
