We feel your pain! Ours was stolen 2 weeks ago while it sat in our driveway. We do live out in the country so guess it was easy pickins! We have been very lucky, Insurance paid for the repairs, local muffler shop was able to get a replacement and is now scheduled to go in the shop on Monday! Hope you succeed in getting yours repaired.

Dang, got methy people out in the country too...

At least easier to get fixed than in Cali, but this is getting out of hand, everywhere it seems.
Not a week goes by on virtually every construction project we have going that something doesn't get stolen or vandalized.
Highlights from 1 job in the last month.
3 cordless tools and $1000 worth of batteries for them, out of our staging yard, fenced, occupied during the day, out of an unlocked storage container.
Forklift or manlift start battery almost every weekend. Either stolen or break in attempt into locked battery box.
Brand new demo saw, set down on sidewalk within 100' of where crew working. Car pulls into lane closure, grab n go, $1200 drove away in a $1200 meth-mobile!
All the job trucks now get taken home by employees at night. We've resorted to just making them take home trucks for someone as less of a chance being vandalized at someone's residence vs sitting on the job, where it is a certainty every weekend.
Security system only lets you know who's going to steal it the next time, doesn't prevent theft cause not like the cops show up.
Security guard, also useless on a 2 mile long job. Other contractor tried it for a while at great cost, but not too hard to watch the rent a cop drive the other direction at night and know you have a half hour or more before he comes back by.

I'll refrain from the political comments...lol
