Interesting gadget/gps mount.....

[ptfjjj]

Probably not good for GPS since you'd have to look down to see it, but cool option for cell phone or ipod mount.

I must say that I'm a little confused about seeing a cell phone, or any electrical devise, so close to a "GAS FILLER CAP" GP

I believe a study was done to dispel the whole cell phone/gas tank issue. I'm had GPS, Cell and Radar Detectors close to my gas tank and I'm still here. >

Just make sure your cell phone or electronics are larger than the filler hole on the gas tank! Never know when a perfectly dropped item goes 'splash'. Stranger things have happened. Just ask my buddy when I worked in another city and we were leaving work. He was running late and pulled out his keys as we went to step into the elevator and....need I tell you the rest? Yep. Dropped the keys and they disappear into the crack between the elevator and the floor. He missed his appointment, but enjoyed a tour of the bowels of the building where, 34 stories below, he and the maintenance man found his keys (and several other unmentionable things) in the pit below the elevator shaft.

Not to get too far off of the subject but...

As a lift mechanic, I can relate to items dropped down an elevator shaft.

I also have seen a rash of idiots filling their cars with gas and a lit cigarette in their hands....I guess I am witnessing Darwin's theory LIVE!
