“Vehicle was topped of with a full tank of gas prior to going on a off road drive. The vehicle was driven modestly up silver canyon trail with no mechanical issues until gas fumes became apparent. I initially thought the rig was running rich in fuel and continued the climb. Then on a break I noticed gas spewing from the vehicle's gas cap. There was a tremendous pressure build up.
