    Yo TW peeps! There have been massive reports regarding cat converters stolen from Toyota trucks and suvs especially 1st gen Comas, T100s and old school 4runners. Just a heads up. Honestly it only takes a few minutes to take one out. I'm thinking of welding my cat converters.

    I hope those assholes get beat down. If I see someone messing with my truck, I'll curb them American History X style! Or I'll call sheriffs dispatch to handle them since they're patrolling now. Local mall parking structures are bad areas too.

    Having the same problem in Houston. Some shops are converting bicycle locks to bolt it to the frame.

    Even if you weld it, they'll still take it. A hack saw or Saw Zall will remove it in about 2 minutes.
