• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

New Use for Glove Box

Gray Ghost

New member
We discovered a new use for the glovebox yesterday. We had some leftover taquitoes and a couple pieces of quesadilla. So we wrapped them in foil, put in the glove box and drove for thirty more minutes. Approximate temp as shown on the display was 90 deg. Could probably have driven thirty more minutes for the food to be a little warmer but it did OK. And of course, in the middle of trying to eat the food and get back on the road some folks in a convertible drove up and wanted to talk about the Spyder.

When you get a good dose of food poisoning you will realize how dangerous and ridiculous this is.
 
Motor menu..!!

Used to cook on the manifold of my Triumph TR4. Not saying it was healthy but I'm still here and never suffered from it. Glove box working as a food warmer is a great idea...:2thumbs:
 
Heated many a meal on my M-37 engine in VN, that is when I got to use one of them instead of walking. I was suposed to be in the USAF, but thatr is another story.

Yep, heated plenty MRE's on the hood of Hmvee's and the APU's of UH60's.

Little JP8 fumes never killed me.....yet. lol
 
Cooked Hot Pockets

Used to cook Hot Pockets on my Bombardier Ski-Doo so why am I not surprised you can do it on a Bombardier Spyder. I have to try this on 2013 RT-S. It's so friggin' hot it should be no problem

Used the engine on the line truck many times to keep our red hots hot. Familiar with the -60? That would work too. Never got sick. Kept my box lunch in the crew door on the 130. Kept the drink nice and cold, popped the top on the coke and had ice crystals in it. The manifold on the 37 heated up canned soup, meats etc. from C rats nicely. Hey, we had to be inventive.
 
Spyder easy bake oven

To speed up cooking time or if you like it alittle more on the well done side just remove the foam insert from the glove box.:roflblack:
 
What a great idea:roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack:Just take the foam insert out for more room.
 
Just one more reason I'm thinkin of swapping my 2012 for a 2013. I ride all year and need the winter time heat. My 2012 isn't hot in the summer, it's going to suck in the winter :(.

Mebbe I'll find one of these 2013 guys that hates the heat and wants to swap :).
