Crank it up and drive away.

This happened to me a few years back when I had couple of pallets of firewood in the back of my Silverado. I found a really pissed off stowaway when I was unloading it. I just shut the tailgate and drove it a few blocks away. Then got out and swept him out of the bed.

It probably slithered, not crawled.

Have you opened up the hood to check for it yet?

No matter how many times you check, there is always a chance it could be curled up under your seat. Watching. Waiting.



I suppose it could crawl through the ventilation ducts when no one is looking....or when he's running down I-10 at 70 mph.

The good news is that it will soon find its way through the floorboard into the cab of the vehicle. Then it'll be trapped and you can roll down your window and throw it out. It's probably inside already. Good luck

Besides selling my car or lighting it on fire, what are my options to get the little fricker out of there? TIA


Give the car away.

Or start a beef with the mafia. They'll take care of the rest.

Possibly. Unless it's a rattlesnake or king cobra

I turned the car on and I'll let it run for about 30 minutes or so and see if it'll come out. At work so leaving and going take a drive isn't a feasible option at the moment.

It is a non-venomous snake - pull the damn thing out (or wait, it will likely go somewhere else).

We find chicken snakes from time to time inside the old cars, getting warm from the motor heat as it cools down.

Wait for someone else to fix it like the rest of the betas on this board does.

Take it to Jiffy Lube place to get an oil change and get a seat by the window to watch.


This was the first thing that popped in my head as well.

What does that say about how fricked the OT is?

Some great suggestions in this thread. My favorites include but aren't limited to take it to get the oil changed and casually ask the mechanic if he can see a snake and rev the engine to let it know you mean business.
