    Fair enough, but at least I mentioned my Mirage in the original post. Different dynamic too.

    How much is a CAT off a Mirage worth on the black market? Fummins, how would a professional thief go about it?

    I don't even have the tools to do a proper oil change let alone a CAT steal lol. Just curious really. We're running out of Mirage themed things to chat about.

    Not worth dying over. These meth heads stealing cats are getting paid next to nothing for them by smarter criminals. They use cordless sawzalls. If you have enough cats you can get a decent price for them from actual cat buyers.

    When I was working at the wrecker a guy would come buy and pay about $30,000 for less than a pickup truck load of cats. That was about 10 years ago. Prices go up and down.

    Karen's hey?

    30 grand? Wow. Is it precious metals like copper that's found in CATs?

    Yeah, precious metals. I don't think copper is that precious. https://www.ctvnews.ca/canada/police...tals-1.5328129
