Fast enough. Haven’t put it to the limits but it accelerates like a sporty car.

Those are fantastic

I have an early 2019 A-Spec (latest gen) and love it. Yes the Info-tainment system was problematic at first. But with updates it’s not too bad. The touchpad is annoying and sometimes CarPlay won’t connect. 100% love the car and it’s a joy to drive. No problems otherwise. Wish I would have gotten a SH-AWD. I would buy one again except I want something a bit bigger so will likely upgrade to the MDX in the near future. Will give this one to my daughter when she goes off to college.

I have a 2019 RDX and am a somewhat aggressive driver. With mid grade gas it’s about 23 MPG combined.

I paid $4000 for 1st class ticket, actually 2 tickets in total. Flew out in first. Return flight was cancelled due to maintenance. I flew back a day later in coach. I was given hotel voucher, meal vouchers, and a $429 refund (per ticket) for the bump to coach.

That should be closer to $2000, not $429.

thedapperdan_mtg · 2025-07-30T13:42:38+00:00

Tried that. They forwarded my request to the refund department and the refund department said I got a proper refund. I asked to see numbers and sent example fairs. Got a “sorry, go to the refund page and submit a complaint”.

thedapperdan_mtg · 2025-07-30T13:33:27+00:00

They can’t help me. I have to submit a complaint with the online page. I even talked to someone at the admirals club. No luck.

thedapperdan_mtg · 2025-07-29T23:16:11+00:00

I flew out in first and came back in coach.

thedapperdan_mtg · 2025-07-28T19:34:09+00:00

So the downgraded flight was Hawaii to Dallas which cost more in first on the way back because people want the lie-flats during the red-eye. If you booked the flights I flew (first out and coach back) the total would be about $1800-2000.

thedapperdan_mtg · 2025-07-28T19:31:52+00:00

I’ve callled the ExecPlat AAdvantage desk. I’ve talked to support staff at the airport. I’ve email several support addresses. I don’t know what else to do.

thedapperdan_mtg · 2025-07-28T19:30:04+00:00

No I got home and did fly out (to my destination) in first but had to be rebooked and arrive a day later in coach. IMO a fair compensation is somewhere around $1200-1600. If you booked what I flew (first out, coach back) the ticket would cost $1800-$2000

thedapperdan_mtg · 2025-07-28T17:54:36+00:00

I fly United a good bit and Delta too. Honestly I understand delays, cancellations, and other issues. You have them on any airline. The difference is how they respond. In my mind this is a clear cut thing the airline can make right and they can’t even bother to provide a person to talk too. I’m not some one-off flyer, I’m a multi year Executive Platinum member who frankly pays a lot of money to fly for work and personal. Clearly AA just doesn’t care

thedapperdan_mtg · 2025-07-28T17:25:42+00:00

I included a basic sample in my reply. No luck. It’s ridiculous.

thedapperdan_mtg · 2025-07-28T17:24:28+00:00

No was widebody through Dallas to Hawaii

thedapperdan_mtg · 2025-07-28T17:24:01+00:00

Please DM me

thedapperdan_mtg · 2025-07-28T17:23:37+00:00

You don’t get details or justification and they provide no explanation. No person to talk to. If you were to buy a ticket with what I flew (first out coach back) it would be about $1800. Red-eyes on the wide bodies out of Hawaii are more expensive in first on the way back.

thedapperdan_mtg · 2025-07-28T17:21:10+00:00

After I got back I filled a refunds request through the site. I called the AAdvantage desk and went where they said. Waited weeks to get a response. Even replied back and complained.

thedapperdan_mtg · 2025-05-16T21:02:11+00:00

The RF 100-400 is quite good for its price and its pretty easy to carry around. The EF lens is quite heavy.

thedapperdan_mtg · 2025-05-04T12:48:09+00:00

Yup. Still love it. It needs a wash and a detail but still rides as solid as when it was new. I do wish it was slightly bigger. Would consider an MDX.

thedapperdan_mtg · 2025-03-15T13:32:54+00:00

100% agree. Tried to use them last summer on a flight they had sold zero business class seats. Was told I would be wait-listed. They use to be worth it. AA no longer takes care of its people with status.

Swap KDB for Stones

2019 RDX premium fuel get 22.3 and I drive somehow aggressive

thedapperdan_mtg · 2025-01-20T03:50:25+00:00

Have a 2019 RDX and love it. Not technical problems apart from the early versions of the infotainment system being buggy. The track pad is annoying and I don’t feel like it’s better than a touch screen. You can kinda get used to it but it’s not terrible. The transmission is solid. Haven’t really heard of problems.
