The toyota prius uses a bladder in the tank and has no vent.  I imagine a
few others may do the same.

MessageI believe cars vent through a charcoal absorber. May allow slight
pressurization, but not much.

 There is a third option.
 Seal the vent when not flying.

 I would not recommend this for RV wing tanks.
 Makes me wonder about cars.  Aren't those tanks sealed, or at least sealed
to some pressure?
