Re: Stolen catalytic converter

Yeah.. They don't intend to sell the gas, so they don't have to store it. They just keep what they need (tools) in the "ride" and when it needs gas, they stop at the first lonely collection of cars and fill her up.. Ron

Re: Stolen catalytic converter

In SoCal I have heard that 4Runner, Tacoma and FJ catalytic converters are being stolen because they have titanium in them. I have no had mine taken, but given the economic conditions, I take few chances and try to park my FJ in my garage when I am home.

Re: Stolen catalytic converters??

Have not had mine stolen personally, but have had friends have their cats stolen off their 4th gen 4Runners.
