anyone had cat problems?

Had a rattle in my truck since new '06 Supercab 4wd. Sounded like a cat shield. Brought it in they couldnt find it. mileage is still horrendous but typical I guess (11 mpg) brought it in last night. The whole cat is toast ( not sure which one). ordered a new one. we'll c what happens. only 4200 miles on it. they claim they've replaced quite a few.

the only toasted cat ive seen was caused by a stuck injector. they melt the cats down. but if youre not getting a CEL i doubt you have a bad injector.
