What if the single wheel were at the back? OMG!

So smooth, beautiful and clean cut, and the actors are cool, too! :roflblack:

This showing was in 2008 when the :spyder2: first came out. We are all given the pre-showing hype so we would tune in to the program and see how the :ani29: was presented.

It worked, I tuned in to the program--even though it was not a regular program that I watched.

After watching, I remember feeling like Ralphie in a Christmas Story when he received his official Little Orphan Annie decoder. I still remember his quote: "A :cus: commercial" :roflblack:

:roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack:

And of the 56 only 3 were women, each stepping from the pages of Vogue magazine.

"Like an ATV..." was an observation based upon the number of wheels, presumably.

Alternatively, "like an open-cockpit plane minus its wings. Oh, and without a propeller".

Did you notice that when the murderous broad sped off on her RS she neglected her obligation to read Can-Am's Safety Notice? Bad girl.

Screen fodder. :roflblack::roflblack::roflblack:

Imagine really using the Spyder as your getaway vehicle...

You'd be caught by the Police waiting for the computer to finish booting up.

 

[Bob Denman]

:agree: You'd need a getaway driver who can keep it running at the curb while waiting for you...

 

[DR Buck]

Should be able to pick that one up cheap at the next police auction. :joke:

 

[Bob Denman]

Low mileage... :thumbup:

I would say more like a cross between a motorcycle and a snowmobile which Can Am (Bombardier) was known for long before the ATV arrived on the scene!:thumbup:

If they used that analogy, they would have had to expand the script to explain what a snowmobile was. After all, the story took place in south Florida. :roflblack:

True! But a large portion of thier population is from right here in the birth place of the sled and spyder!:joke: But I guess talking about a winter vehicle in Miami wouldn't help ratings,:roflblack:

Interesting facts:

The first United States patent for a snow-vehicle using the now recognized format of rear track(s) and front skis was issued to Ray H. Muscott of Waters, Michigan, on June 27, 1916, with U.S. Patent # 1,188,981. Many individuals later modified Ford Model Ts with the undercarriage replaced with tracks and skis following this design. They were popular for rural mail delivery for a time. The common name for these conversion of cars and small trucks wasSnowflyers. These vehicles were extremely popular in the northern reaches of Canada.[SUP][4][/SUP]
In 1958, Joseph-Armand Bombardier designed the modern snowmobile. Bombardier is considered the father of snowmobiling who began commercial production and marketing of the Ski-Doo snowmobile in 1959. Joseph-Armand Bombardier was the first person to successfully market snowmobiles. He was granted a Canadian patent in 1960 and a United States patent in 1962 for his endless track vehicle, aka snowmobile.

 

[Bob Denman]

Joseph Armand Bombardier however, is credited with being most successful at bringing them to the masses. In the late-sixties, there were over a hundred manufacturers; Ski Doos outsold all of them combined! :thumbup:

 

[Smokinspyder]

hmm after she shoots at the guy and rides away around 3:14 the sound is more like my crotch rocket hmmm

 

[Arr MiHardies]

Yeah, 56 in floria. Show me only female owners, because a lady couldn't possibly have her Spyder in her husbands name.

 

[Bob Denman]

...And no self-respecting Spyder criminal would EVER ryde their own bike during the commission of a crime! :roflblack:

That bike DID sound good... what kind of pipe did they put on it? :joke:

So right. I'd use Bob Denman's Spyder! :2thumbs:

 

[Bob Denman]

Mine would be too slow... pps:
Oh! YOu mean with a different operator... :roflblack:

its called a sportbike HA HA . I wish the spyder would sound like that but then again im sure some people would rather have alower grumble then a high pitched whine

 

[Bob Denman]

My bike has the high-pitched whine pretty well covered.
At least when the Missus is in her Navigator's perch anyway... :gaah:
