Syphoning gas?

Syphoning gas?
Maybe this is in the "How to break in my ranger" scheme of things but....
I've got 3/4 of a tank of gas in my burned out truck. Are there any one way gates or anti syphon devices in the fill tube? I just wanna gt that out of there w/o messing anything up. I'm sure I can sell the gas tank so I'm not keen on cutting into it. I'd have to remove the skid plate anyway. Any hints/experiences on this matter? PM me if there's some kind of secret trick.

Not to hijack the thread but....
At work we have an abandoned car that has been sitting there for over 7 months. I've called the cops and it isn't a stolen car and they have no interest in checking it out. If we want to get rid of it we have to pay a tow company, and since we have so many parking spaces it just sits there.
Anyways, does anyone know how I can force open the gas door (it has the release switch by the driver seat)?

^^ pull on it? My probe had a release handle and sometimes it didnt work, you just have to stick a key in the side and pry...
Anyways, i think there is a 1 way valve in it, on my 03 there is anyways....It was cake to drop the tank though....just not as easy putting it back...
I would just try to stick a hose in there 1st and see if it goes in, if not do what zach said...
