Fuel spout protection

Oh ok I see those stupid 3 ribs now. Your right on the good locking caps, i just need to do it. Do you get 1 key for each cap in case you lose one

Each cap comes with 2 "keys," so you'll have 4 to sprinkle around if you order both the fuel and DEF caps.

I also ordered the DEF tether.

They included a cheap 'biner and I chose a big C sticker for my freebie.

I know these aren't the fancy locking caps but doors anyone have any experience with these on a 19 or 20 model, made from billet aluminum. The advertisement shows up to 2018 but nothing after an to my knowledge, nothing has changed with the caps in years.

I bought a set of these for my 2020 but, I'm afraid it wont fit because of the 3 ribs It looks like I am going to have to get the newer version.

I am glad you mentioned the ribs, because I almost ordered the wrong caps.

Mine arrived and look awesome.

Not I.

Geno wants you to order >$300 in maintenance items (fuel/oil filters., etc) to offset that S&H.

This ain't Amazon Dorothy.

If you go direct to the MFR, it's going to be the same net price. Just order from Geno's and get your free sticker and be happy plebe.

Oh baby, I got a deal. I got $20 off the fuel cap. They had 2 in the garage sale section where the box was open an it only comes with 1key. Yes it's the correct one that goes into the 3 plastic ribs. Item # was the same with a couple extra at end for garage sale code. So instead of having 4 keys, ill have 3 an only pay 110 for everything instead of 130. Hell to the yah. DOROTHY OUT AN DROPPING THE MIC :p
 
I ended up buying Geno's locking caps instead of installing a locking door.
Never in my life would I have thought to pay $125.00 for a couple of locking vehicle caps. Would almost be embarrassed to tell anyone. But then again, never thought I'd ever pay $75,000 for a pickup truck either.

Yer in bad shape, 2 genos caps and no rig to ride them around on. The big bonus is, like the prize in a cracker jack box is the big C sticker, old diesel mags ( wich is like porn for some of us) and a bag of pop corn for your spouse.
 
Why a locking cap? Sugar in the tank?

Imop, it only takes 1 @$$ hole to #u<× up a new rig and I can't believe I never owned locking caps or a locking fuel door on my diesels. All my cars had locking fuel doors. Why not the diesel, especially as sensitive and finicky as these new regen systems are. I'm just trying to protect my investment and I honestly am just not a trusting person. I also think its p/$$ poor pathetic that there isn't a locking fuel door on these things, just a plastic plug. I don't even think it will hold an ounce of booze in an emergency. That was my .02 worth any who!
 
I just can't bring myself to do it. 30+ years of driving, 40+ vehicles owned, probably over a million miles driven all over this country (both nice areas and shady) and I've never once had my fuel siphoned or had anyone put anything in my tank. I'm not saying it doesn't happen, i'm just saying the odds are low enough that I'll keep my buck and a quarter.
