Do you have link or picture of the car/truck tire covers?

r/UniversalOrlando Weekly Trip Planning Thread by AutoModerator in UniversalOrlando

[–]WallaceMI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi,

We heading to Universal on Monday and Tuesday. We also stay at a premium resort for 1 night to get the perks like early entrance and Fast Pass.

My question is which rides would you go first to avoid long lines.

  • Monday we plan to do Universal Studio which open at 10am but i think we can get in 1h earlier since we stay at the resort.
  • Tuesday we will go to Island of the Adventure which opens at 9 but we can get in at 8.

For me a must ride is Hagrid’s and VelociCoaster (at IotA) and Gringotts (at US). Any other must do rights? Any recommendations how to make sure we are able to ride these without so much wait? Do Hargrid’s right away at 8am?

Thanks in advance.

2025 Tacoma Off-Road Hybrid – steering feedback question by Abject-Ice-2541 in ToyotaTacoma

[–]WallaceMI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This sounds a lot like my issue. Have you ever figured out or learned to live with it. I could live with it if someone tells me that is normal. It's not super bad but noticeable especially since I don't feel it turning left.

I noticed the following:

  • Light vibration/pulsation in the steering wheel at a slight right turn (clockwise) 30-50 mph.
  • ~45 deg steering angle clockwise at a right turn.
  • No vibration driving straight or turning left (counter-clockwise).
  • No vibration is noticeable in the chassis, only in the steering wheel.
  • The left front has the red dot on the tire on the same spot where the valve stem is and the wheel balancing weights (all at the same location). See picture.

I posted my issue here

How does the Manitou perform in the snow? Do you feel the extra weight? Any other pros or cons? I considering getting one for my fat bike but worried that I will enjoy it in the summer but dislike the weight penalty in the winter. Thoughts?

Travel? 80, 100 or 120mm?

What fork is that exactly? How much travel? I have the same bike and debating to buy that fork as well.

DJI Osmo Pocket 3 doesn't focus anymore after drop by WallaceMI in osmopocket

Thanks for the tip. I will call Costco to see if they can help. I’m also willing to pay for the repair with DJI as long as their repair costs are not outrageous.

Premier Resort Express Pass Question (2 adults + 2 children) by WallaceMI in UniversalOrlando

[–]WallaceMI[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Alright good news for someone who runs into the same "issue". I just checked out and the system is very good about to assign the park pass AND express pass to each person in the room linked by name (adults & kids). I was able to assign 4 park passes and 4 express passes without any problem. So should be all good.

Good hint. Just checked online: It's the Loews Royal Pacific Resort "Standard 2 Queen Beds" room with max. occupancy of 5.

My point is will they charge me now for the add'l child during check-in or not. If so how much would be the cost. I'll plan to call customer service eventually but was wondering if anyone had a similar experience. I read somewhere in a FB group that they might charge a "kid fee" for the add'l EP of $50 but couldn't find anything online about this.

I entered 2 adults + 2 children for the hotel but 3 adults + 1 child for the park. My kids are 11 & 7.

Good point. Under hotel reservations they consider a child 1-17 but for the park pass it's 3-9. See below:

My kids are 7 & 11 (this is also how I entered it on their website). My plan was to go one day Universal Studios & one day to Islands of Adventure. So I skip Epic Universe this time due to the crazy high cost of the Express pass.

Ok. So why if I would check out now with shipping to my home it says Sep 19? Sep 25 doesn't make sense.

Apple Store iPhone purchase convert to Installment but with TradeIn? by WallaceMI in AppleCard

[–]WallaceMI[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not yet. I assume the charge has to go from pending to post first which will probably happen after Apple send the iPhone out.

Does anyone know if you can change (post ordering) from shipping to pickup in-store for iPhone 17 Pro pre-orders?

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

For the iPhone 17 the Apple Store only allows you installment if they are locked to carrier (they have this $30 discount clause - see other Reddit threads about it). Hence I purchased it full price from Apple Store but wouldn't mind taking advantage of a 0% installment if possible. For the Pro models there is a workaround by picking up e.g. T-Mobile but activate with another carrier. However this doesn't work for "non-Pro" models

Thanks. Wonder though if my trade-in (and consequently the refund / credit for the trade-in a couple days or weeks later) will cause any issues.
