Catalytic Converter Theft is a HUGE PROBLEM ON THE TUNDRA

The new Tundra has a huge set of Catalytic Converters (CATS) on it to clean up the are. According the Department of Justice in California there are around 1,600 REPORTED catalytic converters stolen per month. This is around 50 a day! Needless to say it is a problem and last thing you want is to be out of dinner, come to start the truck, and it greats you with the loudest roar heard to man kind. So I invested in some "cheap insurance" I guess you could say. Some peace of mind knowing that "Hey if someone wants to mess with my truck they can get under there and give up because its not easy" Initial impressions of the shields are they pretty nice. They are cut well and have the holes for weight savings. No one is every going to see them but should add some contract down there. There are some minor burs left from the machine process so you may want to wear gloves. Other than that they will do their job.

I know that this is a Tundra forum, however, I just wanted to share my opinion on the new Ram RHO. I was going back-and-forth about purchasing this truck and a new Tundra TRD Pro for several months and ultimately decided to go this route. I couldn’t be any happier based on the price and the interior amenities that you get with this truck over the Tundra for about the same price after discounts.

I will still have Tundra’s on my YouTube channel to compare to this truck and also be documenting all the issues that I have with it just like I did with my previous Tundras however first impressions are very high with it
