I read about a case where a couple came out of a restaurant by an
interstate, to find a man in the parking lot throwing up. He was holding
a hose. They followed the trail back to their RV. There they found that
he had broken the wrong cap, and attempted to siphon the black water
tank...

I have been getting lousy gas mileage on the last
tankful, and went to fill up today. I noticed that my
locking gas cap was busted and sitting in the opening.
So I figured this explained my lousy gas mileage,
someone must have siphoned my gas.
THEN when I went to fill it up, gas starting spilling
out all over the place.
Someone has cut (nice clean cut) my fuel filler neck
hose.
So I know I need to replace my gas cap and fuel filler
neck hose, but what else might there be in need of
replacing, assuming that nothing else was vandalised?
