Got my Dream car mk3 RX350

Purchased this 2010 Lexus RX350 with 98k miles! Have not had a car worth more than $5k before and A big Lexus has always sounded too good to be true in my life, seeing I just paid off a $400k home I decided to splurge. It’s so incredibly comfortable, lots of features to get used to, lots of fancy automations from the keyless entry and locking to the powered lift gate and all the in between. I didn’t know about ventilated seats and that’s a dream here in South Texas!

I took it straight to its 100k mile service at Lexus everything came back great, they said most suspension components look brand new all around. Not sure if this is a red flag but it has a brand new transmission from Lexus, not sure what caused that but last owner took care of it all I hope that means no issues for me.

It’s has all the packages I’ve read about but the tow prep package didn’t mean having a tow hitch! I need to figured out how to add that on.

This subreddit helped me a lot before my purchase thanks all I’ll update at 200k miles!

Administrative Worker

I’m a active duty air traffic controller, I have a BBA and I’m look for some sort of administrative ideas or weekend jobs.

My wife and I share one car, I use an E-bike for on base commute. She works a regular full time job so our vehicle is available to me on the weekends. In my location uber isn’t really a thing and my peers tell me door dash is less than minimum wage here.

I would love to work anything from my computer, I have applied to 16 remote roles and landed one interview, when I said I was almost done with my MBA they stated I should look for a higher role. Any input helps I’m trying to save more to separate from the military.

I decided three days ago that I was going to get an electric bike. I haven’t wrote a bike since I was a kid and I didn’t know anything about these. After some quick reading, I decided to go with a trek fx+ 1 class 2. It kind of was a perfect sweet spot, it’s my commuter for work, switching from a jeep wrangler. Excited for this and I’m moving to Seattle this year so hopefully still useful there.

Anyways I sat on a bunch of different bikes and almost all of them did not have comfortable seats, is there a way to replace this one or is that just gonna come with it? Also, I live about 1 mile from the grocery store and I’m looking to get a basket that’s adequate, but the ones at the bike shop. We’re all too small, what do yall recommend.

Any other accessories or tips you wish you knew when first getting an E-bike?

TL;DR
New to the E-bike world, it’s a Trek FX+1 class 2 asking about how to get a more comfortable seat and what large basket works for this platform?
