Agreed - I am also wondering if they were leaning on anything in particular, or were facing a specific corner / area of the frunk?

But what everyone (or just me) is probably actually wondering is did you eat the carrots? If they are good maybe you accidentally found a new cooking niche. Frunk-cooked turkey for Thanksgiving?

Having stored water/juice bottles and bags with chocolates and snacks in the frunk of my 981 Boxster S, 981 GT4 and 718 GT4RS, none have been cooked yet. However, the frunk in the GT4RS is definitely hotter than in the 981. I attribute that to the increased need in cooling the GT engine with the radiators, and the less isolation in the GT4RS than in even the 981 GT4.

Let us know where you placed the carrots, I am kind of tempted in trying it now in my GT4RS .

We normally kept food/drinks we wanted to stay cool either in the passenger area (and putting them into the frunk when parked) or use a small travel cooler/ice pack.

As to the phone overheating, see the other comments above.

You can cook a lot more than carrots with your car. For those interested, here's the definitive cookbook about how to cook meals using your car. Might come in handy for you GT car owners!

LOL. We did not eat the carrots. Or some of the other food in plastic packages because of microplastics. Carrots were the frunk, though I can’t specify exactly where as my lady can’t remember.

I’ve been looking at insulated food delivery bags for luggage on our weekend trips back in the states. lol !

I’d appreciate any other recommendations for insulated luggage with wheels? I’d even pay for custom fit luggage with insulation for the SRS, if such a thing exists.
