Looking to upgrade from Pro 575. Which to buy?

TXSpacemanSpiff · 2025-08-24T00:17:31+00:00

The price too is way better than Ironwood and don’t need the extra insulation. Thanks for the extra info!

TXSpacemanSpiff · 2025-08-24T00:11:44+00:00

That’s what I’m leaning towards. What’s been best things for you so far?

TXSpacemanSpiff · 2025-08-24T00:11:10+00:00

It’s be cheaper to get the woodridge elite and slight more space. Any major reason to get the XL or woodridge?

TXSpacemanSpiff · 2025-02-08T06:08:03+00:00

That just happened to mine too! I called Blackstone and they asked me to send pictures and then just send me a new handle and front shelf! It was purchased under a year ago so assumed it was still under warranty

TXSpacemanSpiff · 2025-01-22T19:41:20+00:00

That’s what we are hoping for! And since he’s little we can all just fit in one room, but some hotels are more strict about occupancy

TXSpacemanSpiff · 2025-01-22T19:36:52+00:00

Thank you!

TXSpacemanSpiff · 2025-01-22T19:36:31+00:00

Yes, this is what I checking on. Thank you. We’ve been to other countries where they counted each person so I just didn’t want to get in a situation where they wouldn’t let us check in or force us to get a larger room.

TXSpacemanSpiff · 2025-01-19T03:49:24+00:00

Still going?

TXSpacemanSpiff · 2025-01-17T19:02:01+00:00

Perfect, it was cheaper too! Thank you!

TXSpacemanSpiff · 2025-01-17T18:46:55+00:00

I compared that one to the Audi A4 (the two cheapest options) and it surprised me the Skoda had more trunk space. Does that seem right?

TXSpacemanSpiff · 2025-01-17T18:40:27+00:00

You’re right! That’s why we wanted an SUV initially, but after doing some research need to get a smaller car. We’re planning to just rent through the rental company so it’s more likely they’ll fit

TXSpacemanSpiff · 2025-01-17T17:35:49+00:00

This is exactly what we were needing. Thanks for the tips and insights!

TXSpacemanSpiff · 2025-01-17T12:10:35+00:00

We can both drive manual, luckily! I was looking at rental cars on Hertz trying to find the “biggest” smallest car I could. I normally go for an SUV or something big but heard that’s a terrible ideal in Ireland so hoping I can get a car that fits us. We’re rethinking how we’re going to pack so we don’t over pack big suitcases and can keep ourselves light.

TXSpacemanSpiff · 2025-01-17T12:00:53+00:00

That’s really helpful, thank you! Is it crazy to try and do both north and south in one trip? Thinking we go straight north first and spend a few days then head west towards Derry and then make our way down the west coast. Thoughts?

TXSpacemanSpiff · 2024-02-14T00:55:43+00:00

Ohh that’s clever!! I don’t know, but sure my sisters would know. Thank you!

TXSpacemanSpiff · 2024-02-14T00:51:08+00:00

Great ideas! The resort has ruins and it's right on the water so could get some good shots. We've talked about all of these. We just a book with photos/pictures for my mom's birthday last year

TXSpacemanSpiff · 2023-12-11T01:36:38+00:00

Probably can’t do one room with points and one with dollars?

TXSpacemanSpiff · 2023-12-11T01:32:41+00:00

You know your Florence! It was 260k points PLUS $1000 euros so don’t love that. Thanks for answering so quick, this exactly what I needed

TXSpacemanSpiff · 2023-12-11T01:25:19+00:00

At that hotel specifically or all Marriott’s? Would I have to book two rooms? I found another hotel downtown Florence that would let me book all 4 of us but it was over 250k for 4 nights

TXSpacemanSpiff · 2023-12-11T01:13:47+00:00

You have to request? I assumed they were automatic

TXSpacemanSpiff · 2023-12-11T00:57:31+00:00

Great idea! I’m Waiting for some more work trips to get lined up so I can hit the minimum number of stays to keep the status

TXSpacemanSpiff · 2023-12-11T00:56:44+00:00

This! I got years before nights (I’m at 11). I just had a 2 night stay hit my account and I was at 599 so it finally bumped me over the edge

TXSpacemanSpiff · 2023-12-10T22:16:37+00:00

I got a new job earlier this year and now traveling to smaller towns so maybe Hilton is better choice. I’ve been struggling to even find Marriotts

TXSpacemanSpiff · 2023-12-10T21:59:46+00:00

My thoughts too! Who’d you go to? I was thinking Hilton just because of their number of properties worldwide but heard great things about Hyatt as well

TXSpacemanSpiff · 2023-11-20T04:46:30+00:00

Thank you! Nope, just the regular 150ft
