WTF kind of spider was that?:eek: It was probably harmless, but it was too big for my comfort.

Time to respray.

Re: The spider that ...

I haven't slept very well since the incident know that that kind of crap exists near me.

Re: The spider that ...
 

Once, when on a trip in San Jose, I drove up into the hills. As I entered one of the parks (in my rental vehicle), I spotted a tarantula in the middle of the road. As I drove over it, I imagined it jumping up onto the car's underside and hitching a ride back to my hotel and terrorizing me like in a B horror flick.

I hate spiders badly.

Re: The spider that ...
 

Will do. We get a lot of other nuisance bugs like japanese beetles (they look like lady bugs but bite pretty hard) too that it'll probably help with.

I'm glad I don't live in Texas.

Re: The spider that ...
 

I don't like spiders. They make me skeeerred!!!!

Re: The spider that ...
 

My best buddy and I used a tried and tested technique perfected by assault teams in law enforcement and armed forces around the world.

We disoriented and crippled the subject from afar (e.g. flash bang, tear gas grenade) by stomping loudly on the deck and then shooting it with some teratogenic bug killer spray. Then only once it should clear signs of near complete debilitation, did we bother to approach closer than 6 feet and smush it with a long 2x4. :D

I am a skeered-of-spiders-sissy.

Chlorinated brake cleaner > all insects

Re: The spider that ...
 

I agree, they are very tasty too. Slow cook over the grill and spice with pepper and Cajun spice. Ummmm good....
Or, roll in spices and flour, deep fry and you have spider poppers.

Re: The spider that ...
 

:eek: Ick. Okay, f5 = complete freak. You're already special enough with all your HUMMER knowledge. You don't need to set yourself apart by pretending you're on Survivor.;)

Re: The spider that ...
 

Okay, I'm having a really bad spider week. His (above) cousin came to get me today. Anyone care to tell me what this, also large, spider was?

Re: The spider that ...
 

Looks a lot like the "Black and Yellow Argiopes" aka "St. Andrews Cross" spider: http://www.spiderzrule.com/stand.htm

Apparently pretty harmless. But still scary to me.

Re: The spider that ...
 

WE call them garden spiders. Then I kill them.

I HATE spiders. Long story as to why, but maybe one day I'll post it up.

Re: The spider that ...
 

I lived off a bayou in Texas for a year. OG, everything crawled out of that bayou and they were HUGE versions of anything normal sized. :eek:

Re: The spider that ...
 

Spiders are beautiful. Almost as beautiful as praying mantis.

Re: The spider that ...
 

Now, if you see one of these hanging around...be careful:
Sydney Funnel Spider

or,


Brazilian Wandering Spider

The Sydney Funnel Spider, often quoted as being the spider with the most dangerous venom. While the Brazilian Wandering Spider, is extremely fast, extremely venomous, and extremely aggressive. These large and dangerous true spiders are ranked among the most venomous spiders known to man.

Happy dreams...:D

Re: The spider that ...
 

I have confirmation that from a "specialist" that it's an argiopes. Almost completely harmless.
As do I. It didn't last long after I took the picture.
I'm looking forward to it. I hope it has nothing about them hatching in doors. I've got one of those stories :eek::mad::eek::mad::eek:

Re: The spider that ...
 

These photos document an attack, taken by unmanned drone, of the Giant Black Jeepus Antihummeris Arachnid. As you can see, the Jeepus Antihummeris attacked an unsuspecting H3 owner, but the H3 owner was able to overcome this dangerous attack, and put the Jeepus Antihummeris in its rightful place?under the Hummer.





So, be careful out there?.

Re: The spider that ...
 

please do, i dont know how i will survive until i get to read it.:D

Re: The spider that ...
 

Does your McH3's front suspension sit lower the the bottom of the "tires?" My boy's does and the thing won't roll right.

Re: The spider that ...
 

That's a real H3....:D

(Mine shoots around ok, but the front end does sit a lot lower than the rear H3, or else the tires are 37s:D )
