I realllly dont like those little things!!!


No word yet on whether PETA will accept donations of spider-infested Mazda6 sedans again. Stay tuned.



Wasnt sure where to put this as we dont have a vehicular related subforum. Feel free to relocate if need be

I'm not big on spiders either, but I've never heard of a spider that likes the smell of gasoline. Maybe Mazda should hire an exterminator. I'd think it was cheaper than a recall... every year.

Beats a hovercraft full of eels, I guess.

Well if they are WIDDERS or Brown RECLUSES, U ARE TOAST! Just torch the car, thats all U can do! It wasn't safe to drive the Black WIDDER MOBILE! by Now it is probably a LOW RIDER! Completely infested with BLack WIDDERS!!! IF a WIDDER bites U while U are driving, you willl probably drive off a cliff! THE BWM leaked so bad it actually had a crop of plants growing up out of the carpet one year! Just weeds (NO not that kinda weed!) TOo bad I'da let those grow!
Wasn't safe to lift the hoodto check the oil! The engine was covered with WIDDERS!!! and in all the wheel wells as well. But it was a really nice car 20 years ago! I sold it to my brother for SIX BUCKS. He probably made money on it selling it to some Mexicans to run illegal across the border in. They could probably fit a half dozen in the trunk! and so that was the end of The BWM! NOW I Have BROWN WIDDER MOBILE!!! 145K miles on it. Going to be 150 afterI get back from DAYTON! Its about shot too. Time to retire it to a field to collect widders too!@

Merge this thread with the one about Spirit Rover lights and you have David Bowie's band, the Spiders From Mars. Ziggy Stardust has a thing for Mazda.

YELLOW SAC SPIDERS ARE BAD ASS!!!!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cheiracanthium
Very painful bites and skin deterioation similar to Brown Recluses!!!! They are especially fond of GASOLINE SMELLS for some reason. SO U don't want one of these biting U while you drive!
I don't recall seeing any of these here in San DIEGO! The BROWN WIDDERS have pretty well overrun the place. and I have found brown WIDDERS UP on my roof so they like to climb. Unlike the Black WIdders who stay usually about a foot off the ground at most. I would suspect most of the Yeller SAC spiders are a midwest thing SO I hafta be VERY CAREFULL in Dayton this yearnot to pick up any hitchhikers!!! They most likely would attack the car when it is sitting in the parking lot of the BEDBUG INN!!
watch out for these!!
