I know the topic has been discussed here already, but if I find the sorry SOBs who drove up to my office and stole my Toyota’s catalytic converter, I’ll enforce the death penalty on them myself.

Rolled into work for some quiet time answering emails and getting a head start this morning. South Sherwood business lot with about 50 other vehicles. Came outside at 5AM to find a missing converter and a missing Yeti.

Actually didn’t know anything happened until 0.2 seconds after cranking the engine. Every light in the dashboard came on, and it sounded like a bloody jet engine.

Thankfully no other damage and no bodily harm. Could have been a lot worse. But, yeah, those assholes deserve to be hanged, drawn, quartered, and set ablaze. In no particular order.

Rant [OFF] ON

Wait until you find out they’re back ordered.

Yep. Tundra. A blinking neon sign for meth heads, apparently.

This is the America the democrats want. What you work for and buy is not yours because someone else didn't work for and buy it. So them taking it is perfectly fine. Get used to it.

That’ll teach you to be an over achiever. If you’d have just slept in, none of this would’ve happened.

It’s really kind of your own fault.

If they plan on making a habit of this, they may want to invest in some serious body armor. I refuse to accept this bullshite as the status quo.

But, yeah, EBRSO was less-than-motivated. I mean they were polite and all, but it was clear I was nothing but a number on their screen.

I thought they were getting 2-300 for tundra converters? Plus supposedly they are super easy to access.

Is the tundras more valuable or just easier to remove? I don’t have a tundra but I’ve been parking in the garage because of the frequency of these stories.

They need to pass a law that stealing essential auto parts is the same as stealing the vehicle itself and driving off. Get some real prison time going for these assholes.
