Hi Volks,

I wanted to thank every one on the list for there suggestions on getting the gas cap  off.
I managed to get some lock de-icer in the lock, after things thawed out I was able to unlock the cap.
I did this by using a flat tip screw driver and some gentle twisting.
Lucky for me the complete length of the key was in the lock, so it was fairly easy to get the cap to unlock.
The other good part was that by the time I went to fill the Double-Cab up this morning , gas prices had dropped even further to $0.37Cdn or $0.24US per liter!
So some good came off all my grief, I also learned how to disassemble and clean a locking gas cap.

Thanks
Glen
