Default Spiders!!!

I've found a different spider, everyday, for the past 5 days in my crossfire... several times in the past I've had spiders hang from the roof while I was on the highway (miracle I'm still alive). Anyone have issues with insects in the crossfire often? Curious if it's a side effect of the open frame windows. My wife, parking right next to me, NEVER has insects in the car.

My windows are always closed if I'm not driving. Live in an Apt. complex so I don't trust anyone.

The spiders have Crossfire envy. They want to take it for a drive. Keep your keys with you at all times as they have 8 legs and can grab a key so fast then run you won't even know they did it. Wonder if you switch parking spots with your wife would they still bother the XF?

I haven't had problems with bugs inside the car..... But the alabaster sure seems to be a bug favorite. Spiders, moths and especially flies love to sit on my car and take a dump. Must have 20 of those little yellow dots on my car every day during the summer.

Maybe it's my aromatic wax.

Spiders always seem to be attracted to automobiles- and always the same variety. They are small and white- correct?
