Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I was driving about 40 mph, when i ran over a piece of metal that was about the size of a ruler. i heard a loud bang, and then i got home, found that gas was pouring out of the gas tank. it had been punctured. obviously, we all could have been killed if there was a spark. i would not have expected a gas tank to so easily punctured. *jb ***dimsii ivoq entry posted after 12/12/02 cut-over to artemis****744064
