Why do Super C motorhomes have exposed fuel caps?

Super C motorhomes are built on commercial Ford F-550 and F-600 truck chassis, which were designed for commercial applications where fuel cap security wasn't a priority. When RV manufacturers build motorhomes on these chassis, the diesel fuel caps remain exposed and unprotected on the exterior of the vehicle — making them vulnerable to theft, siphoning, contamination, and vandalism. The RV Fuel Vault was invented specifically to solve this problem.

How much does the RV Fuel Vault cost?

The RV Fuel Vault is available in three packages: Single Door at $99.95 retail ($84.95 pre-order), Set of 2 at $199.95 retail ($149.95 pre-order), or 3-Pack (includes DEF tank cover) at $299.95 retail ($224.95 pre-order). Free shipping in the Continental United States. All packages include a Limited Lifetime Warranty.

Is the RV Fuel Vault easy to install?

Yes! The RV Fuel Vault features a simple bolt-on installation that requires zero modifications to your motorhome. Using only basic hand tools (wrench or socket set), most owners complete the install in 8–15 minutes. Detailed instructions with photos are included, plus a step-by-step video guide is available at rvfuelvault.com/installation.

What warranty does the RV Fuel Vault come with?

Every RV Fuel Vault comes with a Limited Lifetime Warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship for the life of the vehicle on which it was originally installed. If anything goes wrong, we'll replace it at no cost to you.

Does the RV Fuel Vault prevent fuel siphoning?

Yes. The RV Fuel Vault completely covers and locks over your fuel caps, making it physically impossible to insert a siphon hose or tamper with the fuel cap. The tamper-resistant keyed lock design provides full anti-siphon protection for your diesel fuel — giving you peace of mind at campgrounds, truck stops, and overnight parking.

What is the best diesel fuel cap cover for an RV?

The RV Fuel Vault is the first and only diesel fuel cap cover designed specifically for RV motorhomes built on the Ford F-550 and F-600 Super C chassis. Unlike generic aftermarket caps, this purpose-built diesel fuel cap cover for RV use features high-strength fiber-filled polymer construction (3/16″ thick, virtually unbreakable, non-corrosive), a tamper-resistant keyed lock, and bolt-on installation with zero modifications. It is patent pending (19/632,042), made in the USA, and comes with a Limited Lifetime Warranty.

Can I still fuel my RV with the RV Fuel Vault installed?

Absolutely. Simply unlock the cover with your key, lift it open, and fuel as normal. The cover stays attached to your RV at all times — no parts to lose or misplace at the fuel station. Lock it back up when you're done and you're back on the road.

Who is Tank the bear mascot of The RV Fuel Vault?

Tank is the official mascot of The RV Fuel Vault — an armored bear and guardian of the open road. Tank represents the brand's commitment to protecting every RV traveler's fuel. After witnessing fuel theft at a campground, Tank set out to create the first locking fuel cap cover purpose-built for Super C and Class C motorhomes. Learn Tank's full story at thervfuelvault.com/meet-tank.

The RV Fuel Vault is Patent Pending under U.S. Patent Application 19/632,042. It is the first product of its kind — specifically engineered to protect the exposed diesel fuel caps found on Ford F-550 and F-600 Super C motorhome chassis.

How does the RV Fuel Vault protect against fuel contamination?

The RV Fuel Vault creates a sealed, locked barrier over your fuel cap, preventing anyone from introducing water, sugar, dirt, or other contaminants into your diesel fuel system.

Is the RV Fuel Vault the same as a fuel tank hatch or fuel neck cover?

The RV Fuel Vault serves a similar purpose to fuel tank hatches and fuel neck covers but is purpose-built specifically for Ford F-550 and F-600 Super C motorhomes.

It combines the security of a locking fuel door with the heavy-duty protection that motorhome owners need.

How does the RV Fuel Vault compare to chrome fuel doors or aftermarket fuel door covers?

Chrome fuel doors and generic fuel door covers are typically designed for trucks and cars — not for the exposed dual diesel fuel caps on Super C motorhomes. The RV Fuel Vault is the first product specifically engineered for this application. It features high-strength fiber-filled polymer construction (not decorative chrome) that is non-corrosive and virtually unbreakable, a tamper-resistant keyed lock, and a bolt-on design that requires zero modifications. It provides real security against fuel theft and siphoning, unlike cosmetic fuel filler doors.

What is an RV fuel cap cover and why do I need one?

An RV fuel cap cover (also called an RV fuel hatch cover, gas cap hatch, or fuel cap hatch cover) is a security device that covers and locks over the exposed diesel fuel caps on your motorhome.

The RV Fuel Vault is the first RV fuel cap cover purpose-built for these vehicles, featuring high-strength fiber-filled polymer construction and a tamper-resistant lock to prevent fuel theft, siphoning, contamination, and vandalism.

What is an RV gas cap hatch and where can I buy one?
