The Ford GT- a mid-engine sports car built by Ford Motor Company is the first car to  feature many new and unique technologies, including a cap less fuel filler system, super-plastic-formed aluminum body panels, roll-bonded floor panels, etc.

When the Lincoln MKS debuts in 2008, it will become the second vehicle in Ford Motor Company’s product line to use a cap less fuel filler.

The Easy Fuel™ capless fuel-filler system is a Ford-exclusive feature that uses an integrated spring-loaded flapper door to eliminate the need for a fuel tank screw cap. It automatically seals after the fuel nozzle is removed. With this new feature, Ford is helping thousands of customers save time and keeps their hands clean from the fuel pump dirt. It's also better for the environment because no gas fumes escape.

Another purpose of this new technology is the fuel nozzle detector. If a nozzle or foreign tube of a different size is placed in the filler neck of a gasoline-powered vehicle, the latches will not release. This saves the car from accidentally filling it up with diesel fuel therefore saving the engine from being totally damaged. But the system comes with a handy plastic funnel to make sure customers could easily get fuel into the system if they ran out.

To protect the fuel filler neck from dirt, dust and debris, Easy Fuel relies on a flexible rubber seal in the body housing.

Having this with your Ford gives you no problem with the exterior look. The new system will be simple, and its hiding behind the same fuel door found on today’s vehicles.

This new and simple technology would make car owners life a bit more comfortable. Therefore Ford deserves an appreciation for this.
