Catalytic converter below threshold i think. Im pretty sure it means your rear o2 sensor needs to be replaced. 40 or 50 bucks for the part im pretty sure you can do it yourself.

I installed a spark plug defouler for the 2nd o2 sensor $8 dollar fix. p0420 Cel has been off for 6,000 miles and counting after the install. No drivability issues, still get 34-38mpg.

The catalyst below threshold code appears when the catalytic converter is below 95% efficiency, hell there is days when Im below 95% efficiency, and things work out just fine.
