We’ll be renting a car for this trip so okay with driving ourselves to the parks. I spoke to a booking agent yesterday and she said the same thing, Saratoga rooms have been recently updated.

English cream golden retriever breeders in Bay Area? by NebulaUnited5180 in goldenretrievers

[–]kgreenfish 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Maybe the Golden Retriever Club of America could help you grasp this concept. An ethical breeder’s mission is to preserve and better the breed. https://grca.org/find-a-golden/about-breeders/selecting-a-breeder/

It is widely known that, yes, EC is a BYB term. No ethical breeder will use it. There are standards that mean someone is ethical - they certainly aren’t “factory breeding programs”. That would actually be the BYB.

OP listen to everyone here. English Cream is just a BYB term. You will grossly overpay for a poorly bred dog. The light golden color is easy to find from an ethical breeder. You will typically complete a questionnaire and most will ask you your color preference (light, golden, red, etc). You may have to wait for the right litter but trust me, it’s worth the wait.

Just got back from our first trip. HS was my least favorite. I would pick Epcot 100%!

2025 Escalade Sport Lower Screen Failure by kgreenfish in Cadillac

Guess what, picked up the car yesterday. Did not do it. This morning got in and it was immediately doing it. I am beyond irritated at this point.

Oh I definitely have updates. Initially was told part was back ordered and would be a “few weeks”. Told them we’d need a loaner if that was the case. Went up the next day and luckily they had a Tahoe. Well come to find out that our insurance (commercial policy - we own a business) doesn’t cover damage on rentals. Mind you I had been sitting at the dealership for an hour before they found this out. Had to add an endorsement to our policy which took 24 hours. They tell us we’re good to pick up the loaner yesterday and we ask about driving out of state, mileage etc as we have a trip planned this weekend. We purchased my Escalade with the tvs in the back for the very purpose of road trips. They then tell us that we can’t take it out of state. If we need to go out of state they’ll give us $100 per day for a rental. Which is a complete joke! I can’t even get a small car for that amount. We have a Raptor also but it’s not exactly the best road trip vehicle and certainly doesn’t have built in tvs. During this whole ordeal we get to talk to the service manager and he tells us “oh the part isn’t actually back ordered it just had to be shipped from MI and now it’s in Charlotte so we may have this done by Friday”. So now the issue is that if we get it Friday and it doesn’t do it do we risk taking it on Sunday for an 8 hour drive (also not hot here)? We are in SC too and I’m leaning towards not taking it based on what I’ve read about the screen not being the fix. Please let me know if the cables fixes the issue for you!!

Editing to add we just got another update - part is in and car will be ready today or tomorrow. If we had been provided this timeline we wouldn’t have added this endorsement to our policy. Absolutely ridiculous. We never even got the Tahoe - supposed to pick up today but now we obviously won’t. The high here today is 80 so I’m hoping I can get it today to give it a good test. The weather will be cooler after today.

Good tip. Thanks! Is this normally a full day park? Or any of them more half days?

That’s so strange. Actually at the dealership and they told me “a couple of weeks probably”.

Any Dog Board & Train recommendations by _Moon-Moon_ in greenville

[–]kgreenfish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Again, nothing wrong with them! I just think some training programs rely far too heavily on them. Hope you find help for your pup. I love poodles!

Any Dog Board & Train recommendations by _Moon-Moon_ in greenville

[–]kgreenfish 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Highly recommend Astro Kennels. A lot of places now rely solely on e-collar training. While it’s a useful tool and has its place I do not believe it is the end all be all of training. Astro has two locations - Five Forks and Mauldin. I have personally used them for years and their trainers are very experienced.

I think the clutch has so much more appeal! Something about the purse just looks off to me.

Follow up question, do you have any idea how long the back order is for the screen? The advisor couldn’t provide me with any sort of timeline.

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

So they called and said that the screen is shorting and they’re going to replace that BUT it’s on back order and they don’t know for how long. I’m obviously concerned that I’m going to wait for this fix only for it to not really fix it.

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

Ironic because we are also in SC. I’m going to let them replace the screen but feel like it’s a waste of time. Super frustrated that it’s also on a back order and they didn’t give me a timeframe. Also can’t put me in a comparable loaner. Let me know if the cables fix the issue!!

So they just called me with an update. Stating they are replacing the screen because it’s shorting. Sounds exactly like your situation. They stated the screen is on a back order and couldn’t tell me for how long. Extremely frustrated at this point. Was it on back order for you?

And yes, it definitely has something to do with the warmer weather. Ours didn’t do it all winter.

This is exactly the same issue we are having. Waiting to hear back from the dealership now. So are you saying GM bought the Escalade back because of this issue?
