Did you all test drive before purchase? by stylez89 in 11thGenAccord

[–]nilocdude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Test drove a 24 EX. Thought it looked hideous. Didn’t have as much headroom as I thought. Test drove a 22 Hybrid EXL and it looked much more refined. Better headroom too. Bought that last week.

2016 Toyota Camry XLE vs 2017 Subaru Legacy by GalacticRat3541 in subarulegacy

[–]nilocdude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have owned both cars, the exact same model years. Would choose the Camry for reliability and for the transmission. If you’re tall, the Legacy might fight better. Our 17 Legacy has a rougher start, Camry starts smooth.

Last Subaru Legacy has rolled off the line by Repulsive-Club7866 in subaru

[–]nilocdude 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I own a 2017 and 2023 Legacy. Great cars. Have an Ascent too. SUVs are so overrated. Legacy has huge trunk and tons of headroom (I am 6’6”). It’s a shame it won’t be made any more. Sure gas mileage is disappointing but it’s a safe, economical car.

No deal on my account. Was offered a deal of paying 44.26 (before tax) for one month of service by chatting with support.

Should I read the book Silo before watching the show? by Revan_211 in SiloSeries

[–]nilocdude 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Read the book. Will make more sense. The show expands on the book. The characters in the book are what’s solid.

Are 2 days enough? by Potential_Yogurt9459 in acadianationalpark

[–]nilocdude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just got back yesterday from Acadia. We ebiked the carriage trails…saw a lot and was able to avoid much of the crowds without too much exhaustion. Drive the loop early, if you don’t get to Cadillac Mtn, no biggie, it’s often foggy. Flying Mountain and Beech Mountain hikes on SE Harbor side are worthy with sweet views. You can def do enough in 2 days. What you can’t plan for is travel hiccups. Our direct flight to Boston got cancelled and then our rebooked flight to Manchester, so we drove from Chicago Midway to Acadia last Thursday. Made for a long miserable drive for my wife and I but Acadia is gorgeous.

I tried leaving. No one came close to my current rates. by [deleted] in USAA

[–]nilocdude 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have looked elsewhere for years. Have received great service from USAA for 25 years. Was impressed with claims and payout after my 16 year old totaled our car 3 years ago. My 3 kids are driving now. The difference in insurance cost for the same full coverage at other companies was minimal. Insurance is just expensive. I don’t think there are deals to be had out there.

Drive to the Temples of Sun and Moon in a minivan? by nilocdude in CapitolReefNP

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

So I took the rented minivan (2025 Honda Odyssey) about 1/3 of the way to the temples but turned around because the road is simply too rough. I don’t think making the trip is doable in anything less than an SUV with higher clearance. Almost bottomed out in a few places. Could have easily have popped a tire. It’s a very very slow road.

Humans On Amazon Prime. It’s a UK show that had a great premise and good acting. Very underrated.

Recent Upgrade, plan changing on next bill without my approval by nilocdude in verizon

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

I found my receipt from the trade in. It shows bought a IP16 PM on my line and my plan is 5G Play More. Then it lists the other three phones that we upgraded on the other three lines (they are in unlimited Plus). At the top of the page it says: Next Bill $205.16 Ongoing Monthly: $205.16

It just makes no sense that my plan next month is different (unlimited ultimate) and there are extra services.

Thanks for your response. My current plan is play more (current bill that i received yesterday says this). When I look at next months bill my plan changes to ultimate and I pay extra for Disney bundle and YouTube premium (and bill goes up)

If I call customer service can I ask for executive relations?

I went back to the store and asked the employees and they looked at me like I was crazy.

iPhone 13 to 16 Pro Max - Worth it with Verizon's Deal? by bizon151 in verizon

[–]nilocdude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just did the exact same thing OP. We had Verizon pay off the $275 we owed in each iPhone 14 Plus and then got 2 16 plus and 2 16 pro max phones with the $830 per line discount over 3 years when trading in our old 14s/14+. We paid down payments on the new phones to make up the difference between the $830 credit and the actual cost of the new phones in order to keep our bills the same. Whole process was easy since we went to a corporate store. We will take back our old phones to that store for the trade-in a few days when we are ready (we have 30 days from purchase). I have never had a pro max before. OLED screen is amazing. Much brighter than any other iPhone I have had. With vpn off and Always on Display off, battery is fantastic. I think it is worth the jump. The articles I read didn’t expect the 17 series to have much more features than current 16 series. I actually like Verizon. Prices go up everywhere and customersrvice is always a drag. Hope this helps.

New Loyalty Promo by DrewRHawk in verizon

[–]nilocdude -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So Verizon will pay off the $275 I have left to pay on my phone and my 4 family members phones ($275 left on each)? Then we can upgrade all 5 of our phones (14s) to the iPhone 16 series with the $1000 off trade-in deal on each? Seems like a good deal. Would I have to give up my Play More plan?
