ImDownWithDisney

What happened to your RV?

Well we used a wheelchair with fairly good success. It was dicey at AK when we rope dropped Pandora. @$$holes would just push over and cut in front. I just started running into people when that happened....knocked one person flat on their butt. The look on their face was priceless. I will say that there is not 1" of smooth concrete in all of AK. That makes for a bumpy ride.

I didn't see those problems. In Disney's defense I'm sure they outsourced those to a contractor. They probably wouldn't spec any nondestrutcive exams on handrails. It would be easy for a shop to pump out some bad welds if they had a new guy or some other issue. Visually a bad weld can look like a good weld.

No he would not be. I'm surprised how thin this stuff is. It can't be more than a few mils...like a cheap trash bag. Major fail.

I've used the mobile ordering on 4 times on our latest trip. I'm surprised they don't check your phone to see your receipt. Each time I've just walked up and grabbed my food. Seems like it would be easy to snag a free meal.

Looks like disney went with thin wraps for the different items in the queue. They are already scuffed, pealing, and generally look like poop for only being open a short time. I noticed this in multiple spots. If they wait a whole year before a rehab to fix this it will be really bad.

Truth!

I pulled a 7,500 lb load the other day with the 450. It felt like pulling a small lawn trailer. This thing is going to drag our toyhauler down the road.

I would love to visit red rocks. I've been close but never seem to take the time

Glad your trip got better. My girls are 11 and 12. It won't be long before they are exploring the parks alone..... I'm not sure how I feel about that. Lol

Hmmm ours has been installed for 8 years now. It works just as well today as day 1. I guess they made some improvements or some are not sealed well.

I don't have a pic handy right now. I mounted it under the trailer at the front. We have a 5'er. So I lean the bikes up underneath the overhang and route the cable through all of the frames. I just bolted it to a cross member.

I mounted this underneath our toy hauler. It makes locking up all of our stuff so easy. https://www.summitracing.com/parts/reh-7032100?seid=srese1&cm_mmc=pla-google-_-shopping-_-srese1-_-reese-towpower&gclid=CjwKCAjw7IbaBRBqEiwA6AyZgrGeKVMdbHanObppQb412q86SznIVII1ZPuTfOcsUICrZfabCW5FshoCGvcQAvD_BwE

Bikes do get stolen. Bring a cable lock. Biking at the Fort is a great way to get around and tour the loops.

I have a week late in March for our break in a full hook up too. When is yours?

I would if we were staying at a resort, but we are staying at her parents house just north of MK. So I can't transport a scooter around from park to park as we park hop in the truck.

Thanks for the replies.

Thanks for the info, Jason

Can someone give me the 411 on the park policy for wheelchairs and ride access? My wife hasn't been the same since her back surgery in Jan. We're planning on a long weekend trip in 2 weeks. While she absolutely doesn't have to roll around, but if she walks we may get a half day in the parks then she will be laid up for a day or so. We're not interested in abusing the system...just need info on how most lines work for people who need to sit a lot of the time. Thanks

It's good to be TCD!

Thank you...can't wait to make that trip to the southwest. I really wish we had a slide in for that trip. I've thought about buying a used one then selling it afterwards.

I have 1 15k AC in our toyhauler. The living area is 30', and it keeps up just fine in the florida heat

Yeah, speed kills mileage. I just drive what speed I want and pay the price. I am surprised that the 450 with 4.30 gears gets the same as my 350 with 4.10's. The extra gear in the 450's transmission sure helps. They both turn about the same rpm at 75. My 350 would get 10-11 pulling our toyhauler at 65-70 mph. I am curious what the 450 will do.

Just did a day trip to the smokies. 436 miles total today. Ran 72 to 75 on the interstate, did some 2 lanes, and a trip through the park and cades cove (lots of stop and go). Computer said an average of 16.0 mpg for the trip. I'm pretty happy with that for a truck with 4.30 gears.
