Gas Cap

Am I the only one who has issues with the gas cap when refueling? Let it hang, and it may scratch the paint. Try to let it rest just under the spout, and it makes it hard to insert the nozzle. Any suggestions? Why didn't Mazda simply put a bracket on the inside of the gas door for the cap?

The little gas cap hook referred to in poolsidenaz's link works fine. If you hang the cap correctly, it won't even get in the way of the big nozzle that so many pumps here in California have.
