    Default Had to get rid of my spyder

    My spyder was my only means of transportation for over 18 months. In Phoenix that's not a great plan. 118 degrees is a lot of dadgum degrees. Having a wife and a dog doesn't help. As much as I loved Fred, I had to trade him in. Things were actually starting to break at a rapid pace. I was afraid one of those things breaking was going to be something the extended warranty did not cover. I actually got a pretty decent deal on the trade.

    I've enjoyed hanging out on here. You guys are incredibly knowledgeable and helpful when I had questions. I appreciate all of the advice and help. I look forward to getting another spyder and being right back here one day soon.

    Take care and ride safe.
    Fred is a 2010 RT SM5 - Sold.

    I am not a mechanic. When I have a tool in my hand, 911 needs to be on Standby.

    No current Spyder? No need t leave! You said you will be getting another Spyder, and what better place to keep up on changes and advancements of new rides, and what is going on if you will be in the market for a used unit. Plus, someone may have a question that you have experience with and just the answer they need.

    I have been Spyder-less for over a year now but still look in and sometimes even post from time to time. I enjoy the posts from a lot of the people here. Usually it's more entertaining than reruns of I Love Lucy. Hope you stick around too..... Jim

    I went several years between letting go of my 2012 RS and picking up my current ride, a 2021 F3s, but I stayed I stayed in touch with this site. It really helped when the time was right to pull the trigger. Life sometimes gets in the way, but hang in there, it'll happen.
