Gas cap hook? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Does the Camaro have a gas cap hook so you can attach the cap to the door while you're filling up so the hanging cap doesn't scratch the paint? Did I read that somewhere that it has it or was I dreaming? I could of sworn I read that somewhere and I was like oh that's pretty clever. If it does, can someone post a pic? Thanks!

I'm sure it does have one. Even my Cobalt has one, and I figure gas cap hooks are pretty universal.

Do you think they could have made that any smaller?

Because a hook works just as well?

it is easy to just drape the tether over the hook, provided it is decently sized, something the Camaro's apparently lacks.

90% of the time the cap falls off the hook. They made the hook way to small.

I am hoping the brilliant GM engineer that designed this does not have a job with the new Gm. I can't believe with all the testing done nobody brought this up when they fueled the cars!!!!!
