THE FILLER TUBE GOING TO THE GAS TANK RUPTURED. WHEN I FILLED THE TANK, GAS SPILLED ON THE GROUND. FUMES ARE ALWAYS AROUND THE TRUCK. I PAID TO HAVE THIS TUBE REPLACED. THE TRUCK HAD 53 K MILES. NOW IT HAS DONE THE SAME THING AT 74 K MILES. I THINK THAT THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS CONDITION AND IS COSTLY TO KEEP REPAIRING. *TR
