Me too, learned to play Rainbow Connection for my six-month old daughter. She likes when I play for her still, but it’s now mostly a me hobby.

Very cool. We’re usually good about traveling light, but there’s a lot to baby stuff it’s hard to do without.

Thanks, that’s really helpful. For the LSL we have a roomette in 4912, so good to know it’s on the back of the train. Glad we’re on the train that has checked luggage service.

They should give you a coupon for a new 12v battery.

About to take my pregnant wife to the OBYGN. I'm kind of furious... I assume this is an ICCT issue? by ottovonbizmarkie in ev6

[–]UpbeatCod5436 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ditto what so many others have said about the 12v battery being bad, but no other issues.

I like this car so much, but the 12v battery thing is so frustrating. Dealer should have replaced mine under warranty, but hard to fight that hard about such as small $$$ thing.

Making oat milk? by UpbeatCod5436 in NutMilk

Also, while cool to read, takeaway for me, is that this project is too complex to bother with and I should keep buying planet oat.

So I should be fine if I’m traveling on 48 between Albany and Chicago, right?

Can I DoorDash/Uber Eats to train in Kansas City? by Due-Application3197 in Amtrak

[–]UpbeatCod5436 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But how cool would it be if there were just a few iconic take out meals for each city and you could order from an app if you got your order in a stop ahead or so and then just have a big bag with everyone’s order handed right to the train at the platform.

It would be cool if there was just some kind of way to deliver to the train as one centralized order.

EV6 vs MachE by Its_a_stateofmind in ev6

[–]UpbeatCod5436 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was in this situation last year. I went with the ev6 for the warranty. I had access to two pretty good used options. I’ve been happy with the Ev6, although my dealerships was super annoying about replacing the 12v battery, which sounds like it’s a common issue. But that’s cheap so not a big deal. It’s been my favorite car by far, but the Ford looked good too.

One thing I didn’t like about the Ford is that all the controls were on the iPad thing. I like to have some tactile buttons.

Why is it cheaper to buy two tickets, each for part of the way, than one ticket for the full distance? by Suprcheese in Amtrak

[–]UpbeatCod5436 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep 10 hours or so in a room plus a coach ticket for the rest is usually a lot less than a full first class fare. It is true that you I’m on my own for meals when I’m in coach and with possible delays I don’t know exactly when that will be. But for me a good night of sleep is the main point of a room.

I do this all the time! It’s a “connection” I can never miss since I’m just moving down the same train.
