I don't know if Oregon has any kind of safety inspections like Texas does, but in Texas they test the gas cap annually, if it doesn't seal it doesn't pass the inspection, or if any warning lights are lit on the dash such as "check engine", gas cap or air bag.
I also can't remember the last time I heard/knew of anyone having gas stolen from their vehicle, we had diesel stolen from equipment at work, but not the gas vehicles.
Most all of the newer vehicles you don't have to remove the cap to fuel up, just shove it in the spring loaded flapper.
