Gas thefts, along with catalytic converter thefts, are growing problems here in California. About four years ago after someone stole the entire cat off my lifted 4x4, I took a friend's advice and used strategically-placed fish hooks up and under all of my vehicles' chassis, exhaust, and around gas tanks. Just keep a clear record of where you place them and how many so you can remove or avoid them as necessary.
It may not stop a very determined thief, but he'll certainly think twice before sticking his hand in there again. He may also leave some nice bloody fingerprints behind.
