Cashing In On Someone's Car

[soabojangles]

$1800?????? a high performance exhaust is about one grand.......... Let alone a juck yard exhaust system. You know the mechanic that gave that estimate was like " WTF!!!! he said that on TV!!!".

[rawdog268]

[freespeachrulez]

Go get a Job!! Yeah if that was not a fairy tale, I know friends with all kinds of certificates and degrees who can't get a job.

[skateboard12594]

I doubt that that lil fragile desk bitch looked under his camery, he probably started it, got startled, cleaned the shit out of his pants and called AAA and a full swat team to catch a smart mother fucker who is makin money.

[whoewasthatit]

haha they cant steal my cat converter cause its in my barn :P

[crazyminnesotan94]

@whoewasthatit lol you a loud truck guy?

[whoewasthatit]

@crazyminnesotan94 yeah lol. i got a 93 z71 stepside and its got a thrush welded muffler and sidepipes. loud enough for me and a little more power than it did wth the cat

[crazyminnesotan94]

@whoewasthatit oh bad ass! im gettin a 94 z71 regular cab long box and im either gonna straight pipe it or get a muffler like yours

what does yours sound like overall?

[whoewasthatit]

@crazyminnesotan94 its pretty loud when ur feeding it but it s quiet when ur idleing and letting off the gas. it sounds exactly like a flowmaster

[crazyminnesotan94]

@whoewasthatit awesome what size pipe did you use?

[whoewasthatit]

@crazyminnesotan94 it was 3 inch from the y pipe that joins the manifolds together til the muffler and then 2 1/2 inch pipe from the muffler to the sidepipes. its loud as crap on the inside if you run turndowns. i did that with a flowmaster 40 and i loved it til i had to drive thirty miles of interstate lol. i wouldve used the flowmaster again with the setup i got now but it fell off and busted as i was goin down the road. i had to drive home open headers

[senseblogger]

junkies are doing the stealing in USA others like me do it honestly !

I have gootten cats from wrecked cars and that was scary because it's not my car i'm removing parts from if caught the cops will just tell me to leave !

[MADdrummer971]

[deathgod646]

Some son of a bitch pulled this shit on me today i swear if the catch the fucker who did this...

[truckdawg43]

A baseball bat makes your bones more pliable .Some one with a CCW makes you holey and leaky .being a scumbag theif makes you a useless waste of skin .Do it under my truck makes you a speed bump

[orange70383]

A 1 pump aluminum jack and a good battery sawzall will turn that purrin cat into a fat rock.

[AfroSamuraiTheMaster]

I miss when gas was $3 a gallon

[DIMATIF]

"It was like VRRRRRRRRRRR!!!" ROFL!

[xXARab77Xx]

Haha if you were in saudi Arabia you can fill you 2009 GLX camery for 6$ lol

[NITER1DER]

PLATINUM baby !

[Lokivoid]

@NITER1DER

Theres really not whole lot of platinum in those things, infact there is barely enough to pay for the chemical required to extract and refine it.

[automotiveDIY]

lol 1800? he could replace it for $100 and 2 clamps

[Hiddenjello]

i wish gas was only 3 dollars a gallon again

[cesarubiatch]

O shit it sounded like a Jet, Really? Really, a Jet? C'mon. The other douche who got suckered into thinking he had to pay 1800 is a real piece of work. If he has to get a performance exhaust while your at it.

[iggy151]

HAHAHAHAHA

RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

[jhoags92]

"Describe the sound..."

"It was like... VROOOOOOOOM!!!"

[MrWW2ace]

1800 dollars haha wow rip off i got my exhaust done fo 60 bucks

[moneybelt22]

@MrWW2ace  HE GOT FUCKED

[sgtarnold933]

@MrWW2ace haha i said the same thing! haha a whole new system should run you 1000 for a good bolt on hi performance system like flowmaster or magnaflow and that includes headers!

[yoyoappled]

weld that shit on yourself you big pussy,dont drive a truck if you gona be noob

[CharlieFrky]

@yoyoappled doesn't deter them, they just hack saw it off, but it is a bit louder and takes them more than 10 secs.

[bayliner2568]

Sometimes I think the news should just tell us about the weather.

[22reTOYOTA]

Good scam. Open a parking lot and rip off peoples converters when they park there. Top it off with a sign that says "Not responsible for theft or vandalism".

[chrisinator13]

if he paid $1800 he's crazy.... 200 for the Cat and no more than 50 for the labor... which is almost none

[madman3891]

@chrisinator13 i cant get it for 200$ and get an illegal immigrant to do it for 5 bucks

[666posiedon]

oh whatever. who needs a catalytic converter anyway? just find someone who can weld and run it straight to the muffler! lol that will save u alot of money!

[jvandugan]

Right now, some junkie is getting educated by watching this video . Thanks to the news people for keeping us well informed !!!! I love how they break it down too . The only thing they forgot was to leave the phone # to the scrap yard .

[kreigsmann]

its a good trade!

punishing idiots who get SUVs by stealing their cats. these people look like rich wigs anyway.

[dukeboy426]

go get a job. easier said than done bitch. go get a catalytic converter.

[hacker1462]

id probley do the same thing cant even find work catlic conveters here i come

[kreigsmann]

the best place to do it is in junk yards.

the people who work there dont give a damn.

since they cant sell a used cat to a costomer

the cats are light and easy to throw over a fence

that and this is recycling them to be made into other cats to be put on new cars we should be taking these.!

[elitecssplayer]

Well, how am I supposed to return them now? I used them for drug money.

hahaha, no Im just yanking your chain, I don't even ever live there, nor do I do drugs. Pathetic who did this though.

[DaManzMoney]

Why get a job bitch I can make 500 bucks in 10 mins stealing from you

[louis12346]

Obama Job Less Recovery

[emojens]

i will cut your balls off, you selfish asshole.. "DaManzMoney" my ass, someoneElsesMoney..

[DaManzMoney]

U punk I'd own you if u came near me and I'm Da Man and I have a shit load of money u bitch. I call myself Damanzmoney because all u punks up your cash and I own all your money or I will soon

[sebast007]

YEAH? Well I'm gonna protect this guy from you, because you know what? I'm BIGGER, BADDER and even more MANLY than you are!

And I have a bigger shit load of money, too! They don't call me MisterManlyManzShitLoadOfMoney on Youtube for nothing!!!

[DaManzMoney]

@sebast007 You have no clue the bigger they are the harder they fall and if you do have lots of cash thats good its more I can punk you for and big deal they call you whatever on youtube I call you a punk bitch

[elitecssplayer]

DaManzMoney: hahaham loser

[sebast007]

I had a lot of fun reading his comments (DaManzMoney). What a retard! lol

[Mcprice302]

You could get a complete stainless steel exhaust system for a new vette for $1800. What a dumb ass if he pays that! City folks really have no clue!

[pepene93]

well, labor in the city is more expensive, and OEM parts for more i dunno, tame cars tend to cost more

[JesusChristRulesYOU]

The government and wealthy politicians who force the economy into a recession created the criminals in the first place. The government and CEOs should be held accountable for their crimes of greed.

[pepene93]

im not saying all those r comletely innocent, but since the theives *cut* the cats out, i doubt they were people who were doing it so theyd have something to eat. sounds to me like they were people, likely with jobs, who wanted some extra cash

[DaManzMoney]

Drugs

[pepene93]

yea, quite possibly for drugs, but either way, they werent desperate homeless people looking for their next meal.

[lorenz770]

hahaha hole new exaust just because of the way they cut the cat out ????..... yeah maby if they threw a chain around it and ripped it out with another car.

someones getting ripped off

[KevyTheWearBear]

vouch

any muffler shop can weld a pip and put on a after market cat for around 80-150 dollars

( if you buy ur own cat lol )

[pepene93]

yea...well, i guess its true that theres some mechanics that decide you need a whole new brake system because ur pads r worn out...

[VertNinja]

@lorenz770 yeah no doubt. he was robbed twice!

[joeldude76]

@lorenz770 thats exactly what i thought lol

[guitarsandwomen]

@lorenz770 It is easier than you think.Ever heard of a sawsall.They are rechargable and they can cut the exhaust pipe off in front and behind the catalytic converter in about 3 minutes.After you cut that you have a catalytic converter.Very easy and fast to do.You can have a new one welded back on were they cut it but you shouldn't have to buy new exhaust pipes.Universal cats are cheaper.About 60 to 100 dollars compared to factory ones that cost 8 hundred to over 1 thousand dollars.

[clubsoda69]

Thieves suck.

[Halogen360]

I personally don't like catalytic converters and I am going to remove mine soon. All they do is restrict exhaust flow, when I could be cashing in on my cat.

[pepene93]

well, its illegal to drive without one. now, if u live in a state that doesnt require emissions tests (i know indiana doesnt, for one), then its pretty much safe to remove it

[Halogen360]

I live in southeastern Nebraska, which DOESN'T require testing of any sort. I can get away with just about anything on my car.

[pepene93]

hahaha, its the same in indiana...vehicle laws are insanely lax around here. from what i heard, its one of the very few states that allow tinted headlights.

[black00civic]

I have a message for you Tammy, I wouldn't do it either, but I would film myself removing my own. I was told by a mechanic that the stuff inside was worth a pretty penny but I wasnt told exactly how much, so they might be right but exaggerating a bit.

[putaloco]

lmao 1800

[luigiplumberboy2]

Yeah, I haven't seen any systems for over a grand bwahah. Still, those grease ball fucks should be hanged.

[pedrotski2007]

$1800 for an exhaut. ahahah what a sucker.

[eibomz]

$1800 for a new exhaust? That is more than my whole car cost me.

[Pfhockey26]

the 1800 is most likely including the labor costs for the mechanic
