Reported at 2,354 miles, January 2005

The vehicle has the strong smell of gasoline. When parked and being driven the gas fumes are strong. I changed the fuel tank, that did not fix the problem. If the windows are opened the fumes enter the cab. When open the door, I have to stand back and let the fumes dissipate before getting in. I cringe when a lit cigarette is thrown out ahead of me. Is this the time that I will go up in a blaze of glory? What has to happen to get this problem fixed?
