Just be careful... Make it too difficult to remove the plug - and these weasels will just poke a hole in the bottom of your tank - get the fuel they can carry, and let the rest dump out on the ground.

Kinda like a lock on a door if the vehicle has a rag top...

unless it is pre-planned theft in desperate times.... the thief wont be caring something that will poke a hole in one of these tanks compared to a car / suv or civilian truck tank
