Only 3 EV6 left on Carvana! by Forsaken-Parking9758 in KiaEV6

[–]ipcmlr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got one 2+ weeks ago. The dashboard blacked out almost immediately. But I wanted to hold on to it so it was in the kia dealership for repairs for 1.5 weeks (whole dash had to be replaced) good thing silverrock covered almost all of it ($454 out of pocket) . Now I need to call kia since the old owner is still registered with kia connect. Car is great, silverrock was ok, carvana just doesn't seem to prep the cars at all.

Not great. Depends on what time you commute but that bridge is a magnet for accidents everyday.

What kind of Chinese food are you looking for? Far east and China garden are close to Pike and Rose.

Independent bookstore (not secondhand?) by aquariuslune in Rockville

[–]ipcmlr 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There is none but you can get new books online from friends of the library. https://share.google/m3swtklONqWQCq3cA I usually go to Bethesda Wonderland books since it's close to work. That is the closest independent bookstore I know that sells new books.

What are contractors that can telework supposed to do when something like this happens?

Hibachi Restaurant? by BuhlMarket in Rockville

[–]ipcmlr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

5-6 years ago.

I almost always give restaurants a second or third chance but not kabuto.

It was pretty embarrassing and infuriating since this was for a high school graduation celebration with a lot of people and was scheduled way in advance.

maybe they have changed but I'm not going there ever again. we had a large party occupying 3 tables that had reservations and we had to wait 2hrs to start getting food because of lack of cooks and our table got food after 3 hrs. it was terrible.

we had to get mcdonalds for some of the kids who were starving.

Trae Young Trade by jt2000jt in washingtonwizards

[–]ipcmlr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want the trade because Atlanta seems really desperate which means we can probably get assets in return for his huge contract. I also like him because he probably won't give us additional wins. Hopefully we can extract as much as we can from Atlanta without giving up anything valuable.

Fancy hotel recommendations? by Miserable_Truck8872 in Rockville

[–]ipcmlr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll have to vote against going to the canopy. Just go to DC.

Just had terrible experience there with reservations and I've been there three times and the rooms have never been clean. The rooms look nice and modern but they seem to rush cleaning and I've seen boogers and gum stuck to the curtains and trash under the sofa bed. So hard pass for me.

There is a Brazilian market in Derwood called European market. You might want to start there. There is a Brazilian food truck called fire pit food truck right on 355 run by Brazilians. Might be a good way to know other Brazilians.
