The reasonable EOW is celebrating 🍾 a million wells completed 😊 😃.

Looks like BYD has a service problem in Thailand 🇹🇭.

Sounds like chaos in the BYD/MG after market service centers. Is it any different in Thailand 🇹🇭 or are the Chinese brands hanging their customers out to dry?

More than 100 in a single day on September 24th, 1990. Even of you had lighting balls shooting 🔫 out of your headlamps, EVs will never match the carnage dino fuel ⛽️ can unleash. https://www.thebigchilli.com/feature-stories/horror-lives-on-after-deadliest-traffic-accident-in-thai-history

Vinny actually has a good point and EV owners might soon "volunteering" lower their cars performance, to avoid paying an insurance premium. In Russia, having a dash camera reduces insurance cost and we know EV owners are penny pinchers at the pump or power cable, so most will go slow 🐌 to save a few baht.

All in not well 😢 🤧 on planet EV. Vinfast might be the first major player to fall from grace. Tesla is feeling the ache of an old man and some of the lesser known Chinese brands are doomed to fail.

Accelerating, but using the brakes??

Bit of fine Thai nonsense journalism from the Nation. Since when is going from 1,250 to 3,100 nearly double? It is more than double!! "Thai Smile Bus will nearly double the number of its electric buses as it aims to overtake the Bangkok Mass Transit Authority..." The Thai Smile electric busses charge 15 baht, where everyone else, aka diesel busses, charge 8-13 baht. "provide a cheaper transport alternative for commuters, he said." But, whatever, the electric busses are nice and hopefully soon they will replace all the older busses. I spoke to one of the bus drivers and he said they have lots of problems, mostly software errors, so not an easy transition.

EV mating season.

Here is a business idea 💡 to all you EVangelists with V2L: Road side assistance 😀 🛻. 83Rse1aLF0UzRkNB.mp4

You are welcome 😊. 4-zmkgDht4mv7Yfb.mp4

True, but the guy that fuel ⛽️ up with dino juice is indirectly paying me a 1,000 baht, which I happily 😊 spend on fuel. Combined we are doing 720 km, while you and the other solar panel users are creating massive amounts of nuclear waste 🗑 and radiation by supporting the sun 😔 😟. I think we should have an interplanetary radiation tax for EV users.

Used to be, right? When did they split up?

Still also a part of The Nation?

March was particularly brutal for Tesla in Europe 🇪🇺. Minus 34.5% y-o-y sales. Toyota +8.6% 🤭.

When rubber meets the mud, BYD fly by like a lighting fireball. 8j9yxJd2yb-MI5tw.mp4

That is mostly true, except the 7-11's at the islands.

It is mud season in Ukraine at the moment. In a month or so the ground will dry up and Russia will begin their summer offensive, just in time for F-16 to be operational. The meat 🍖 grinder will continue, but at the end Ukraine will, maybe not win, but survive.

It it only for Bangkok, not sure how you do it in Chiang Mai. https://bangkok.immigration.go.th/en/onlineservice-and-publicguide

Absolutely brilliant 👏, you solved the enigma. Thanks 😊. The short slider (full flush) is near impossible to adjust when installed as it is wedged behind the overflow tube. It was in the top position when installed, which oddly enough is the lower setting for the full flush, but the flush volume is good and I don't have any leaks, so I will leave it that way.

We need to build a sustainable future for the next generation, by pumping $100 oil 😉 . We are not there yet, neither with the sustainable future, $100 oil nor a (fully) change in my attitude 😀, but I am in good company and enjoying the holiday 🌴 🏝.

How about this monster 👻?
