I read in the USA Today, well today, that theives are stealing the CATs off of vehicles to turn in for their valuable metals content. They turn them in for around $150, where the owner usually has to spend over $1000 to get a new emissions system installed again.
The Story.
Man, what's the world coming to? Are we going to have to put the "Club" over our exhausts?
The worst part is, the crap spewing out of those vehicles in the meantime. The hotbed of activity is in SoCal, which definitely doesn't need any more air quality issues.
