Attractions with "Test Cars" in front?

I'm going to WDW later this month with a friend who is Ultra-Pooh sized. He is over 6" tall and approximately 375 pounds.

I will be making LLMP reservations tomorrow for our crew. I seem to recall "test cars/ride vehicles" outside of some attractions so people can see if they will fit before they stand in line. Can anyone remember which attractions have test vehicles?

I think that at Disney parks, Flight of Passage and Tron are the only rides with test vehicles out at the right entrance.

I think you are right. Those attractions are definitely the ones most likely to pose problems fit-wise for certain body shapes/heights. I know 7DMT can be a bit of a squeeze as well, both height and weight-wise. Those seats are itty bitty!

I seem to remember there being a ride vehicle for Dumbo and Everest too. Am I just imagining things? My friend will NOT be able to do FoP and will have to ride the back car in Tron.

Pretty sure there is one at Expedition Everest near the entry to the single rider lane.

I can’t help with which ones have test vehicles, but I do want to say that I feel he’ll be able to fit on pretty much everything. I’m low 300s, and the only one that was a struggle for me is FOP and Astro Orbiter.

While I know our weights are different, my brother was probably around 450 the last time he was there (6’8”) and he could ride everything I’m almost certain (didn’t even try FOP or Space Mountain and Tron wasn’t open yet). I can’t think of anything he tried to ride that he couldn’t off the top of my head.

That is really great to know!

Edited, we won't try FOP, Astro Orbiter or Space Mountain for sure. He also has limited mobility and won't be able to step in and out of the rocketship. We will try Tron, but in the last car that's not a bike.

This guy takes videos to help others get an idea of what it is like riding different theme park rides. He has channels on all the major social media sites, and you can watch his videos there. Scroll down to the links to tiktok, instagram, You Tube, etc.

From the videos I've watched, the only Disney ride that is really hard to fit on is Flight of Passage. Tron has a car available for people who can't ride on the bikes. That said... other rides may not be super comfy. Jason's videos are good to let you know what you can expect.

Have a great time!

Mine Train may be a challenge (I have trouble with my knees in that one)
