Default MF'ing road debris

Coming home from my parents place the other day and hit a peice of road debris on I 95. I didn't have a choice as there was traffic all around me. I heard it smack the under carrage. It sounded really great. When I get home I can smell raw fuel, but don't think much of it. 2 days later I take it to work and park in a dry spot. When i come out for lunch i notice a puddle under the fuel tank. Damn thing was hit by the road debris. Cracked it right in the lower fwd left corner. Been hunting for a tank all week. Dodge wants 400 dollars for it. I think there smoking crack. I found a junk yard in Philly that can get 1 for 150. I'm going over there tomorrow to get it. All that for a peice of plastic. What a pain.
