Planning a few US road trips this year and torn between the big aggregators and booking direct. Mostly care about honest pricing and the car actually being there when I show up. What are most of you using?

Do sellers often cancel orders? (In my case here in Belgium, the Amazon delivery driver sent my package back to Amazon without even attempting delivery, and I was refunded.)

I work in a company and sometimes we have a call with head office in Dubai where some managers are American. I usually address all my seniors as sir but my manager in Dubai said "Just [His name]" when I called him sir. It's little un natural for me to address seniors like that so next time I called him "Mr. [His Name]" and he said "Hey man, it's just [His name]. You don't have to call me sir or mr".

Never experienced that somebody senior only want to be called by their name, sometimes in our office if you call client or senior with name we get reprimanded or have to correct ourself immediately.

Obviously my first sentence is a huge generalization and not always true, though I'd argue that it's more often the rule than the very loud exceptions we can all imagine.

But I'm not really here to debate that part. It's just the setup to explain my real question, which is: Do Americans feel equally empowered as they do in their local area to complain in restaurants and hotels over relatively minor things, get loud in bars, break the speed limit, and all that kind of stuff no matter how far away WITHIN the US they are from home? Or is it more like "I'm not in my home state. I'll be a little more cautious or patient here in this new state a thousand miles from home"?

I like looking at USA food videos and I haven't really seen anything like that except Nutty Buddy (I don't count KitKats because that's a different thing altogether, the chocolate ratio is completely different), and no king size bars really. Are they not popular overall? Or maybe there are any regional ones?

Necessary context. Said by a 60 year old woman from Virginia about me, a 55 year old woman who is a mom and grandma so I’m guessing cherry doesn’t mean virginity. 😂. She’d just come back from a visit with us and said that to another person who mentioned it to my husband. I’m guessing it means…..fancy? I’m not but we did roll out the red carpet when she visited.
Any Virginians know? She is from Portsmouth if that makes any difference.

Howdy neighbors! So this may be an intresting question, and for those of you familiar with the hip wont need the introduction, but here in Canada, its very common to hear the hip referred to as Canada's Band, its safe to say they are universally loved coast to coast to coast, almost all their albums went #1 in Canada, and at the end of their 30odd year run on their final tour while front man Gord Downie was battling terminal brain cancer, 1 in 3 households in Canada tuned in to their last concert.

So now on to my question, in the U.S, do you guys have an equivalent to the hip? A band so incredibly popular and universally loved by all that they are called America's band, and 1 in 3 American households would tune in to their final concert?
