Why spend quite a few bucks on a lock? A metric-sized nut and bolt works real nice. I imagine most don't carry metric tools. And in the case of most mega drivers, most probably don't carry any tools. As a plus, bolt cutters won't work too well either. And, yes, I know its not foolproof, but it is effective. Soooo, next time you're home, stop by the local hardware store and pick up a couple.
I know a way to make all truckers pull up after fueling

Use a 6mm bolt since they have a 10mm head. 3/8" wrench is just too small to actually fit the bolt. Or even better, use a bolt with a 12mm head. Too big for 7/16 and too small for 1/2".Toothpick1 Thanks this.

A few months ago a driver click mbed back into his truck at Johnson's Corner and did not notice the nozzle fell out of the passenger tank and he pumped over 100 gallons of fuel onto the ground. Stay outside your truck and pay attention.SingingWolf Thanks this.
