Driving my car back from the shop the other day (with a new cat)
I started to hear some disturbing noises from the engine bay, like a
3000 rpm rattle/grind/general Not-Right noise.  I listened for a second,
backed off the throttle and moved a lane to the right.

The noise shifted.  A few seconds later I realized it was the old Chevy
in front of me.
