This is about the third filler neck rubber grommet I've bought for these trucks in the last 10 years. Seems like after a few years the rubber starts to break down so that it stains my fingers if I just barely touch it. If I happen to wash the truck or even wax around that area, it stains the sorrounding area.

Anyone have the same problem? And does anyone know if there is a better grommet that doesn't oxidize?
