Actual solution though: Honestly, some stainless steel plate would slow them down

I wonder if a polyurea coating would resist drilling?

I have been thinking about a method to protect my tank from offroad adventures.
I was a little surprised to see no actual protection of the tank.

I started playing around with ideas like a big aluminum sheet of aluminum plate.
Stainless makes more sense in this aspect, but still most cordless drills will likely make quick work.

Now if you start looking at AR500 steel plate..
that stuff requires a good drill, and some lube to drill through.

Plus, it's zombie proof!

Regarding the plate solutions, I'm not sure that it needs to be all that thick because of it's spaced down a little it seems that the gas dribble might splatter all around rather than shoot down through a secondary hole. Something worth a test.

Go all electric and drop a tesla motor/s in it. You're half way there with your hybrid
