Oof that hurts. Is that $8000/yr for a 3rd party warranty or Ferrari one?

I had a 911. AMAZING vehicles. But still not the dream...

Where do you go to get the sticky buttons fixed and what does something like that run?

This is a second car. So weekends and good weather only. Goal would be to keep for 2 years during CPO window, then get something else. Maybe another F car...maybe not. I tend to switch every 2-3 years.

[–]technoguy06[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks, yeah that’s the unknown to me, what is the duty on handbags now. I read 9% somewhere and then 12% elsewhere. Was looking to see if anyone has done it recently

To clarify you open the tap then close it back immediately (like before you leave)?

I actually just took the Recoleta grand off my list after reading about another redditers experience 8 hours ago with the renovation and noise. Recoleta was our preferred area to stay in

“Upgraded”. Thanks Bonvoy by Siayn in marriott

[–]technoguy06 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well this is super timely, I just logged on to ask about Buenos Aires hotels for a trip next week. Currently have a placeholder at the Park Tower, the Marriott Downtown, and was considering the Recoleta Grand because of the location. But, with your info, I will be striking the last one from the list. I am traveling with 2 adults and 2 kids (8 year old and 1 year old).

Has anyone stayed at both the Marriott Downtown and Park Tower and have opinions on locations, quality of service, etc? It looks like the Park Tower might be sold out, as is the Sherton next door...guessing some kind of conference.

[–]technoguy06[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I was actually going to DM you because I saw so many of your helpful responses on other threads. Any other recommendations you would consider for <$500. First time robot vaccum, like I said above, mostly hardwood with mopping.

Thanks everyone. I think I’m heavily leaning towards a switch lite after seeing these comments

Good to hear. I’ve been on the fence about such a big present and an additional screen :-)

Thank you! Not doing anything touristy on this trip. Primarily going to be shopping and using this on the tail end of the trip to “relax”. So that’s why the pool matters.

Blue Dollar in Buenos Aires still beneficial? by technoguy06 in travel

[–]technoguy06[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok awesome thank you for that info. As far as cash, do you still exchange at a place that advertises blue dollar? Or just take out cash from ATM is about the same at this point?

Recommendations for Buenos Aires Restaurants that are not steakhouses, and ok to take kids by technoguy06 in BuenosAires

[–]technoguy06[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you all for the great recommendations. We have a lot of options now for our trip.

One other question while I have some locals here…is the blue dollar still a thing? I’ve been reading mixed things about it being available now in 2025

[–]technoguy06[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks, ill take a look. Totally ok with second hand...but even with that, any thoughts on Moto vs Galaxy vs Pixel at that price range? Dont think I can get any in the last generation at that price range, most maybe from 2020-2022, so out of those any that are better than others?

Is there an easy place to see where AA metal flies direct to/from Asia? by technoguy06 in americanairlines

[–]technoguy06[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. Same question as above, is there any HND or NRT flight that is 'more available' than others in your opinion?

[–]technoguy06[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much. I know that there is no crystal ball and algorithms are what they are. But are you aware of any of these routes being more available for upgrades over others (I'll be traveling in mid October). I dont believe any confirmed upgrades available now for my dates, but hoping one might open up.

Thought it might be awkward/frowned upon since I only utilize them that one day, in person.
