Default Re: Rubber matt for parking on

A word of caution for those that use cardboard to catch drips. A gent that worked for me was using cardboard under his "modern" truck to catch oil drips smelled something burning a short time after parking his truck. Seems that the cardboard had twisted over time and his tire kicked it up enough that the cardboard was touching his catalytic converter. Probably would have burnt his house down if he hadn't caught it.
