Kids should be offered a range of classes, including shop, that can spark life long interests. Or at the very least, that would give them skills they need to live. Cooking, how to do basic household repairs, playing a musical instrument, art - especially how to draw, foreign languages are all...
Great comment! This will be my only car. I currently have a 24 year old car that I'm trying to keep maintained before I can get my Slate. I've never had a new car in my life, this will be my first.

I'm not about to fill the frunk itself with a bunch of ice.😉
