Default Odd Exhaust Issue

Just had a head scratcher. I thought I had an exhaust pipe break by the resonator. I dropped the car off at my local muffler guy who called me and said come on by, I need to show you something. Turns out that on both sides of the car, the beautiful factory welds had never made contact and the pipes were held in just by friction. I'm driving a 2003 and in all those years it never came loose until now. Fortunately it was a quick and cheap fix.
