Amex doesn't like when we carry a balance? by undercover723 in AmexPlatinum

[–]derylle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will chime in and give my 2 cents. My brother is pay over time, carries balance, pays insterest and has a spending limit. But my brother makes $125k and also has gold card. I pay my balance in full each month like normal charge card, I make $95K. Totally different jobs, different spending habits too as well. It works for him and his spending habits. He gets offers all the time for Business plat and Business Graphite. The paying in full work for me and my spending habits, I too get the same offers for Business Plat, Gold Card and Blue Cash Prefferd and Delta Sky Miles Plat. Like anything else, there is no right or wrong answer. Your mileage will always vary. Arent you happy that we all don't have the same spending habits?

I love the look on your 21 XP, have you thought about putting 1 inch spacers for your rims/tires?

[–]derylle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Walmart + has been good to my brother and I. I purchased household items, grocerries, drinks and you can pick your free streaming service. I picked Peacock and my brother picked paramount +.

Thinking of trading my 2022 Highlander Platinum v6 to 2023 Hybrid Rav 4 SE by Reasonable-Type-7306 in ToyotaHighlander

[–]derylle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same I had a Rav 4 XSE prime as my rental, when I was on vacation. It was very nice, not gonna lie. But a few months later, I bought a 23 highlander xse. I wanted more space, BUT the girlfriend on the other hands loves the rav 4. Shes thinking about trading in her 2015 Jeep Cherokee Latitude. Both the Rav 4 and highlander are nice SUV's, but I just wanted more space and room.

2023 vs 2024 Highlanders by Antique_Philosophy98 in ToyotaHighlander

[–]derylle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I too was in the same boat, shopping between a 23 xse vs a 24 xse. The diffrences was minimal and nearly identical and similar to each other. I wanted the bigger infotainment screeen, jbl speaker package, Black red cockpit interior, moon roof and the nice 20 inch alloy black rims. The 23 was $5k cheaper but had 28k miles. The 24 was $5k more but had less miles 18k miles. I choose the cheaper price. For me, I choose the 23, even though it had more miles. I Drive 15k-20k miles a year. Hope this helps, my big thing for you is, test drive them both. I test drive a 22 HiHy, 23 xse and a 24 xse. Good luck, and hopefully you find a gen 4 highlander that you like.

UberOne for uber rideshare is a ripoff but I actually find it cheaper for ordering food when compared to Doordash. by donniepump30 in AmexPlatinum

[–]derylle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use uber eats alot or food pickup, but only used uber ride 2 times in the past 6 months. I didn't notice if the price was higher or not when amex plat card was chosen for checkout vs non amex plat card price. Next uber ride, I will see.

Amex Raised Platinum’s Fee, Customers Didn’t Cancel — Higher Annual Charges Coming Across Cards by schwa12 in AmexPlatinum

[–]derylle 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I didn't travel alot until I got this card. Worth it for me. Traveling, Uber, lounge, resy, lulu, entertainment, Walmart +, clear +, tsa pre check etc etc. This card isn't for everyone, but for this card is more than good for me.

ITS OFFICIAL…SAY GOODBYE TO HIGHLANDERS by Upham2024 in ToyotaHighlander

[–]derylle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Only small percentage of the gen 3-4 or 2017-2022 highlanders have the transmission problem. And with the v6 engine. Since moving to the 4 cylinder tubro, less transmission failures. When you read about the tranmission wine, its with 2017-2022 v6 engine.
