    Why is "brilliant mind" deleted? 😕 🫤

    2 hours and 16 minutes full solar power per day on average. Why so low? February wasn't particularly rainy, but maybe cloudy? Pollution? The position of ur panels? The national average is 4.5 hours.

    To add to the confusion and lethality of Thai roads, some frontage roads have two-way traffic, as show here on Rama 2.

    Where do you see 2.5%??? https://www.bot.or.th/en/statistics/interest-rate.html

    How come you use PT so often? Any benefits or member card? I exclusively use PTT and get point on the blue card. With your consumption you get a lot of free coffee ☕️ at Amazon. On behalf of the oil 🛢 industry we thanks you for your business 😊 😃.

    Have you ever owned a Fortuner or are you just making fact up as we go along? 13.6 km/l is pretty Impressive. Driving at an indicated 120 - 130 km/h and not using cruise control we achieved 7.3l/100km measured at the pumps on the down trip....trip computer also indicated the same. https://www.4x4community.co.za/forum/showthread.php/328637-Fortuner-with-very-impressive-fuel-consumption

    The big difference is that the optimum speed is way higher for an ICE.
  9. ExpatOilWorker
    Very good and honest answer. Speed really is a range killer for EVs.

    The full report, just for you. matecconf_bultrans2017_06002.pdf

    Pib, What kind of range do you think your Atto 3 will have if you hit the highway to Hua Hin an early morning and kept the speed at a constant 120 km/h? Looks like the comfort zone for EVs are urban city speed of 20-60 km/h. The Fortuner will of course be right at home at 120 km/h.

    There is actually a video of this battle on X. The lone Ukrainian soldier got help from a few drone, but he he did most of the fighting himself and walked away as a true hero.

    China 🇨🇳 sure is taking auto export to the next level. Roll-on/roll-off ships are old school.

    The eternal joy of EVs 😊 😃. Text: The battery frame is bent. BYD does not sell it separately. Had to buy the entire battery set for nearly 700,000 when including other repair costs. Over a million baht.
  16. ExpatOilWorker
    So EV cars are all about performance? Sounds like petrol heads with a short circuit.
  17. ExpatOilWorker
    From 800 to 0 km/h in 1 minute. I think we can rule out break failure as the cause of the crash.

    Apparently it was a friendly fire 🔥.

    Introducing the Corolla killer. https://thedriven.io/2024/02/22/corolla-killer-byd-launches-us15000-ev-in-direct-attack-on-legacy-makers/ The Qinky has a small 100 kW engine and now idea how they can squeeze 420 km out of a 48 kWh battery. Magic maybe ✨️.
  21. ExpatOilWorker
    Pib, do you know when BYD will have the first car rolling of local production line? Earlier reports suggested late 2024, but no update as far as I can find.
  22. ExpatOilWorker
    Do it with your extension and you need this form. 22.Transfer-Stamp-to-New-Passport-Form.pdf

    Good points and you probably understand the Thai economy better than most of us. I think the fear is what might come later in 2024, man made or natural slowdown. It is never great to be on top (or bottom) of this list, especially if household debt is high.
  24. ExpatOilWorker
    Just like Venezuela 🇻🇪 did?
