We have kids museums in the US too. As a new parent I just discovered 2 nearby that have been here for decades. They have old donated vehicles like a police car, city bus, ambulances, or science stations, things like that. Things like pl

My hometown is much more bike friendly now. It wasn't an issue 30 years ago when I was a kid, but now there are major bike/jogging paths cutting through town in a few different directions, bike lanes are wider and clearly marked,

My in-law told us they were boycotting Disney for political reasons. A few months later we wanted to respect their choices so we asked her what our nephew would like for his birthday and she told us he's into The Mandalorian and Marve

Seems like an odd thing to focus only on driving. Houston to Albuquerque is cheaper to fly than drive, and much less time than driving. Edit: Also, it's closer to drive from Houston to Florida, but the map just seems to only go west i

Saying either he can eat what we eat or have a safe alternative sounds like the exact opposite of eat or go hungry that the thread is about. Your dinner time routine sounds very reasonable. I'm a new parent and our methods are growin

I live in a small city of about 60k. To get to work I drive through a city of 350k, 50k, 20k, then into a city of 250k. Each of these cities is 5-10 miles apart. It's a straight shot on the freeway, there isn't much traffic. W

The system is out of whack. Price stability needs to happen. If you only look at the issue from how easy of a time does labor have getting a job, then sure. Going from stupidly fantastic to great is worse. The world is more complex and t

Or they could be hoping more people join the labor pool. If you listened to Powell speak, you'd have heard him say they had hoped the labor participation rate would have started to go up by this point. People re-entering the job mark

I know it's been the case for a while, but as time goes on I actually feel more like the product when I need to use Chrome. They aren't building it for me, they're building it to sell me.

It would greatly depend on your driving habits. I’m averaging 2k miles a month. My electricity cost averages around 4 cents/mile(14c/kWh). At my current gas prices($5.75) I’d need to get 142mpg to get 4 cents/mile. The ra

You order it from Ford, buy it from the dealer. Ford shows you the MSRP. Dealer gets to charge you whatever they want. It doesn't feel legal. Ford has told dealers they'll be punished if they do it. Dealers are still doing it

The Rav4 prime was 57k after all the fees. My Model Y was 61k Edit: Those numbers were numbers I experienced buying a year ago. Article numbers put some Rav4's more than current Model Y performance price.

Tesla honors the price you order your Model Y at. Mine took about 3 months to get and the price did go up once during that time. I paid the original price. Fun surprise ordering a Mach-E/F-150 Lightning and the dealer charges the mar

I found one last year. It was 7k dealer markup, plus another 3k for various accessories, plus another 2k for an A/C super coolant. They also came in extremely low on a trade-in. I ended up walking and ordering a Model Y. It felt sl

I'd call it a cautionary tale of favoring lower costs over being safer. It would also be outrageous and tragic if 3 kids died in a substandard home. The problem with letting homeowners take responsibility is that most of the homeowner

People are willing to drive hours away to not live in apartments and condos. They already vote with their wallets. That said, California no longer has single home zoning, so we'll see in a decade how much it helps here.
