The Wax Witch- technically in Pawtucket but she does a very good job. Can be a little hard to get an appointment because it’s a popular place but for good reason.

I may be feeling bitter about being fired but I can honestly say that at my location (can’t speak for the others) took cleanliness very seriously.

lmao, wants to help people with mental health problems, "won't do the work for you" on literally a post asking for exactly what you claim to know. You're full of shit.

I’ve put $40 amazon cats on cars with no issues at all, I’ve also had walker cats go bad within a month. Brand really makes no difference. Get a good warranty, and buy something that’s in the middle of the price range.

Honestly I was fired for performance. I’d rather not go there anymore. And I definitely don’t want to go to any location in RI because they’re all under the same management.

There are some cats that have 0 pgm content. They just are loaded with cerium to trick o2 sensors. They last about 500 miles before the cerium is used up. You really don't want to have those replaced every few months.

10 mins from providence isn’t “a little outside of boston”. We agree that RI is much more affordable and the houses are actually decent. Lynn has curbed the market on crack houses with asking prices of $550,000. It’s a joke

What will they steal when cars are full electric? Probably the $21k battery.

I’ve replaced dozens of cats. Brand doesn’t matter. The warranty is what matters. All aftermarket cats are mediocre at best. But as long as the warranty will swap them out if they go bad then it doesn’t matter

aftermarket brands that are decent: AP, Walker, Magnaflow. off brand but okish: davico -they are local. most private label cats are made by AP or walker.

Have your cat replaced with a decent quality aftermarket cat and put a sign in your window that the car has an aftermarket cat. The aftermarket ones aren’t worth Jack shit. But the thieves are sometimes too dumb to identify aftermarkets and will sometimes steal them anyway. I do plenty of mechanic work in and near providence, if you PM me year/make/model and photos of where it was cut I can point you in the direction of the most cost effective way to put your car back on the road.

Not any more, just checked and 11:00 every night. I know I've caught later before but they cut back a lot of trains during the pandemic.

Just FYI, the Acela is not appreciably faster than the Northeast Regional train between PVD and BOS because it makes all the same stops and its top speed is mostly constrained by track limitations. It is, however, much more expensive.
