    I filled my trucks' gas-tanks, and the cost was over 80.00+. So, I ordered keyed caps to help keep the gas in my tanks.

    I also, just because I had some free time and felt good and the weather was still warm, I sanded and painted the caps after they arrived. 15 pictures maybe of the steps. Came in to download...the memory chip card was out. :s The Cannon doesn't do cable connections anymore on this model. WIFI only. I don't know how to do WIFI stuff, so I've just been removing the card, putting into my PC and then replacing it back into the camera. It's no big deal at all.

    I have tried to clean the gas-tank filler areas and doors for 30 years. The past few years or a lot longer, the area wouldn't begin to come clean. I walked past the cleaner's area in the back room getting the primer and blue sparkle paint. So I grabbed 2 cleaners. 409, and Bleach White.

    The 409 surface and something cleaner started to clean the dark black stains if it sat for a moment before wiping it off. YEA! Finally found something. I've had this 409 for 10+ years too, and never tried it. It was hidden in a rolling cabinet table :D .

    There was tape covering the key slot on top and covering the bottom screw base of course when I put the memory card back in. I then forgot to take pics of the "custom caps" after I removed the tape.

    They do look like they came with the truck now. B)

    Hopefully I would hear the drill.

    I'd definitely hear the saws-all.

    If one goes to steal my catalytic Conv., I go to steal one's leg with my own saws-all or better yet, my ax. One and done.

    I deliver mail in downtown Rochester,NY. Last week,two of my customers that live in loft apartments,had their catalytic converters sawed off their cars. Just out of camera view,in a “secure” parking lot.

    The metal recycling Co. here in Wilmington will not buy C. Converters. Period.

    There must be an underground syndicate that buys them. The Converter Cartel.

    Shame the cameras didn't catch what direction the Converter carrying guy/s came from or went toward. I would hope the complex puts up a couple more cameras now.

    The best way to predict the future is to invent it.

    It is imperative that we recognize that an opinion is not a fact.

    Imagine making politics your entire personality.

    When my son texted me about the theft, I got on the internet and checked for a ballpark figure for a replacement for a 2005 F150.

    Hmmm...$1320 American
    Just for the converter !

    They used to NOT deal in catalytic converters but checking Advance auto parts
    shows they do now
    From $269 ("Some fabrication required") to $569 (ditto) to
    $639.

    Back in the day, JC Whitney, purveyor of fine auto parts and fuzzy dice, sold fake catalytic converters.
    Basically a straight through muffler.
    Could get one of those for cheap and if you knew where to get a bogus emissions test, life was good.
    Of course I'd never suggest such a dastardly deed as I'm all about saving the environment, the cost be darned ! 🙄

    Some states only look for codes set, Where I'm at, no inspections, so
    no problem! I suspect a lot of cars around here have them removed.
    Lots of street racers in the area.
