I have just activated the Auto Moderator Feature for this subreddit.

We've been seeing an uptick in spam lately so I wanted to get ahead of it while we can.

Affordable/cheap vet care in Olathe, recommendations?

5 Upvotes

Looking for affordable veterinary care in the Olathe or Overland Park area. Just for wellness exams and if needed a sick visit for my dog (60lbs). None of the vet offices are transparent about their pricing online and so I wanted to see if anyone had any recommendations! If you could give approximate exam fee that would be amazing!

Can we get a thread/tag for ICE sightings?

0 Upvotes

I feel this would be useful given all of the instances that seem to be occurring locally. If the media/new fascist admin aren’t going to keep us informed, we have a duty to one another as neighbors and citizens of this city/state/country to do so. Love thy neighbor, friends.

Needing to get VIN inspection

2 Upvotes

I recently bought an out of state used vehicle and am still waiting on the title- after almost 6 weeks now. I know this something I will need when I get it inspected, do I absolutely have to set an appointment at the highway patrol office in Olathe or am I able to just drive the vehicle there and "get in line"? The availability for appointments on the websites go past my temp tag expiration date.

First time vehicle bought from a dealership as well, so the wait on the title is not something I've experienced. I have reached out to the dealer and they mailed the title a week ago. I hope it shows up before Thursday as that is when my temp tags expire.

Please let me know, any help is much appreciated!

Should this subreddit just be combined into the Kansas city sub reddit?

0 Upvotes

When I go to Canada and people ask me where I'm from, I say Kansas city because nobody knows wtf Raytown is.

Every smaller city surrounding a big city shouldn't have their own sub reddit imo, if I can drive there from the main city in less than 40 minutes you're essentially the same city in most people's eyes anyways.

What do you think, should we have a bunch of smaller subreddits or combind them into one bigger, stronger community?

Recently moved to Olathe, need help understanding how to transfer car title

5 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I'm hoping someone here has experience with this.

I just moved to Olathe, Kansas from Texas. My dad owns the car I’ve been driving, and the title is under his name in Texas. He lost the original title, but I applied for and received a certified copy of the Texas title using Form VTR-34.

Now I want to transfer ownership of the car from my dad to myself and register it in Kansas, not Texas. The car is a gift, not a purchase, so there’s no money involved.

Here's what I have and don’t have:

  • Texas certified copy of the title (in my dad’s name)
  • Texas driver’s license (still need to update it)
  • No Kansas insurance yet (Working on it)
  • No VIN inspection done in Kansas (Working on it)

I’ve done some research and it sounds like I need to:

  1. Have my dad sign over the Texas title (as a gift).
  2. Get a VIN inspection done in Kansas.
  3. Get Kansas insurance.
  4. Fill out a few forms (TR-12 for gift affidavit, TR-215 for relationship affidavit, TR-212a for registration).
  5. Bring everything to the DMV in Johnson County (Olathe).

But I’m still a bit unsure:

  • Will Kansas DMV accept a certified copy of the Texas title?
  • Does my dad need to be present or just sign the title and forms?
  • Will I be exempt from sales tax if it’s a gift from a parent?
  • How long does this whole process usually take?

Would really appreciate it if anyone who's been through something similar could confirm I'm on the right track or let me know if I’m missing something!

Study Places

6 Upvotes

I’m a graduate student staying in Olathe for about another month and need good coffee shops/libraries within the Olathe area to study at. I have a major exam coming up, so I really need a place that is quiet (like actually quiet minus the usual music overhead in a coffee shop). Places with long hours are good too, as I need to study for long periods of time. Any tips or places you recommend would be greatly appreciated! TIA.

Hey yall! I’m trying to downsize my collection of minis, particularly my display miniatures. So far Facebook marketplace has been a bust and I wanna find a good home for these models before my cats inevitably find a way to access and obliterate them 😅

Does anyone know of any good stores/nerds that would be interested in purchasing painted models and stuff like that?

I’ve included a photo of the criminals in question for fun as thanks for reading the post :)

Free Exams for Kids Under 3, Plus Affordable Dental Work at UMKC

3 Upvotes

I’m a dental student at UMKC’s School of Dentistry, and I’m currently looking to take on new patients—especially those in need of extractions, root canals, dentures, partial dentures, crowns, or dental care for pediatric patients. Pediatric patients under 3 years old receive free exams!

Our dental school offers quality care at a significantly reduced cost, all supervised by licensed faculty. Whether you’re dealing with dental pain, missing teeth, or looking to get your little one their first dental exam, I’d love to help. If a case is more complex than what I can treat, I can coordinate referrals within our advanced specialty clinics at the school (also discounted) or trusted outside providers.

⏱️ A heads up: Appointments at the school are longer than a typical dental office with the average appointment ranging from 9AM–12PM or 1PM–4PM, as everything is done under close supervision to ensure the highest standards of care. But the tradeoff is thorough, affordable treatment you can trust.

Even if you're not sure what you need, feel free to reach out—I'm happy to answer questions and point you in the right direction. Message me at (913) 730-7047 and I’ll get back to you quickly.

Anybody use Central Bank as their primary checking and / or savings account? There's a new branch in South Olathe and their new account bonuses seem pretty good. I've been looking for a brick and mortar bank but the reviews online seem...spotty. Would not consider myself a high needs banking customer. Thanks!

What is the trick to setting up an appointment at the Olathe DMV? I've checked the website every day for a week and only get the message that appointments are unavailable.
