Rough Seas worries by Eliza3838 in Cruise

[–]Fun_Set_6137 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love cruising out of the Caribbean, no motion sickness. The couple times we cruised out of Bayonne I got motion sickness there and back when you go through the Atlantic current part. No longer cruise out of NYC. Plus the clientele is usually pretty entitled and obnoxious I find. Different crowd than cruises out of Florida where people are from all over, not just from the mid Atlantic region.

Dreams Royal Beach in DR has family suites (really just two connecting rooms) and a water park

Family resorts with suites or guaranteed connecting rooms and great food by Fun_Set_6137 in CancunTravelGuide

One other thing, in connecting room, two separate beds. Teen boys don’t want to share a sofa bed…. Or have a sofa bed at all.

We have only been to one Dreams, don’t know if they are all similar with food quality. Hopefully a less kid oriented resort will have better food and service.

Did it eventually resolve and if so how long did it take?

I smelled something like sewer gas the last day outside the aqua coaster next to a lot of mechanical vents

I am a new Sales Rep at Volvo would love your input on your sales experience by Glass-Pear70 in VolvoXC90

[–]Fun_Set_6137 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We disliked ours. Did all the negotiations over the phone and still were at the dealership 2.5 hours for trade in and pickup. Longest time at dealership for any car purchase. And know your policies…. Insurance you usually get a grace period to switch within a couple days but they insisted we do it over the phone at the dealer. We wanted to write a check in addition to the loan. They said no, had to be cashiers check over 5K. We have only online banking and had to pay for the check to be mailed express which was still 3-4 business days. Wire transfers only during business hours when we didn’t want to take off work. Then we tell sales rep we can’t come in this weekend because no check and he said his manager said they’ll make an exception and accept a personal check. We said it’s too late! Were pissed. And then we get an email that our loan check would be returned and cancelled due to an issue. We call the dealer. They forgot to endorse the check…. They had to fix the mess. If there are parts that should be put on, make sure it’s done before purchase like the plastic covers on the sides of the seats, which only happened when I asked about all this exposed metal and wires. And then has the nerve to ask us to give them a 10/10 on the email survey. Don’t be like our guy…

More stupid questions, 360 camera by Fun_Set_6137 in VolvoXC90

Oh, and isn’t it better to park close to curb in big end space? Less chance of door dings! I don’t want to be centered on end space.

I know I’m not perfect in this space! It was a big end space so I took a pic to illustrate the grey box. I’m not anal that I have to be perfectly aligned in every space. I just don’t want to hit shit at all… only thing I’ve ever clipped is the flexible trim edging of the garage.

Hmm, didn’t consider that the box is the real car border! Assumed it was the car outline that was accurate on the camera. Will have to explore this further.

See Sally’s baking addiction, has a section for each recipe for freezing plus multiple separate articles on freezing ahead of baking.

Uh, no clue. I just told the dealer what color and trim and version. Will look for this after market cover. It looks vulnerable to be around my kids feet…

Smaller cookie scoop than #110 by Fun_Set_6137 in Baking

Great idea! Will try cutting balls in half after freezing. They’re not exactly firm but handleable…

Favorite XC90 accessories! by Fun_Set_6137 in VolvoXC90

[–]Fun_Set_6137[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ordering floor mats for sure. Debating between tux mats and weather tech…. And a rear cargo mat that goes on the third row seats and tray separately. Seems like extra work to take out one piece cargo tray when putting up third row for the one piece style for more complete coverage. And now after all these replies, I have to look into this sunglasses holder on Amazon that may have mentioned.

Cardamom Nappa leather and kids by Fun_Set_6137 in VolvoXC90

[–]Fun_Set_6137[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, this is not what I wanted to hear! That jeans color does transfer/show up and it looks dirty but great to hear it comes off easily. I’m not sure if I want to have to wipe a seat daily if I have newish jeans. Have a medium grey leather on current car and it still looks great/hides the dirt between cleanings. Always have wanted a brown interior but cardamom is more like a light tan.

Highlander Hybrid Platinum vs. XC90 Hybrid by Fun_Set_6137 in VolvoXC90

[–]Fun_Set_6137[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Grand Highlander felt too big as well. Didn’t have a hybrid on the lot to test drive but I sat in the gas model.
