    Does test mean test drive each one?

    Yes.  3.0 4x4 engine is worth every baht because I like to drive around the country and camping.  3.0 4x2 is a bad choice.  1.9 engine you'll regret it unless you're just going to Lotus and back home, shopping here and there.  Those are my opinions. Look up Thai YouTubers testing out the 3.0 4x4.

    The well known MuX rear air conditioner condensing within the liners causing damp lining seem to be a problem still, factory issued fix at the dealer is to block the air intake that cause humid air to enter. strange that previous generations Mu x never had this problem

    I just called my sales and was told my Mux will be from the factory, not fixed at the dealer.  I'm gonna go to see and open up the AC unit at the back and confirm if they really did fix something up good or a temporary fix.  Anybody able to confirm with photos?

    Looks like it's also APR

    So 2.5% in Thailand vs 0.55*12=6.6% in Laos.

    Or real interest rate 5% Thailand vs 13.2% Laos.

    Well my buddy in Laos is kicking himself in the nuts for believing Laos 0.55% is cheaper than Thailand's 2.5%  ???????? my neighbor calculated and in Laos for the same price, he's paying $24,612 more.  Ouch!

    Elegant vs Ultimate - Were you able to see both at dealer or did you just order the top one. The Ultimate has all the latest safety braking technology which I'm not sure I'd like. Also rims are different.

    I went all the way.  I tested both of them out at a dealer and from neighbor and I concluded that ADAS safety tech do help!  And the Rough Terrain Mode wow it made me forgot about my rusty second hand mod Fortuner diff lock.  I also heard about the backseat AC condensation where it would drip down from the ceiling blike a leak.  It was a very very bad fix where they left the fan blower open without a cover.  Here's a link https://youtu.be/aBt1I6IEgbo

    Also watch part 2 from the same channel.

    0.55% per month?

    Is this the real interest rate or APR?

    In Thailand they usually state APR, so your 2.5% is actually 5% real interest rate.

    Well you asked the wrong person.  But I actually called Laos Isuzu sales and I just found out that a $58,200 Mux with 30% down payment at 0.55% interest is $709 monthly for 84 months!  That's a ripped off. 

  6. I just put in an order for an Isuzu Mux 3.0 4x4 yr2022 top spec.  All done and happy waiting ????  My buddy in Laos told me the Laos interest rate is only 0.55% for 84 months Mux $58,200 same as everything as my Thailand Mux.  But we're arguing because we're old farts..well my Korat inlaws are arguing with him.  LOL.  He's saying that Thailand's cars and car interest rate are extremely expensive but I told him that it might look expensive but Thailand method is only per year then spread out into months.  And Laos use per month method.  I'm not good with math and finance jargon.   Am I right?  So which would be more expensive let just say 2.50% Thailand vs 0.55% Laos?  Lets just say both cars cost the same at USD$58,200 (33.43 exchange rate x $58,200=Baht 1,945,626).  Thanks.

    I just ordered a new Isuzu mux ultimate, as it is time to replace the 2005 fortuner, which only has 80k kilometers on it. That is due to working rotation abroad. 

     

    I looked at the top spec fortuner, way over priced and the dealer attitude sucked. 

     

    So I think you made a good choice. 

     

     

    Anyone looking for a very sound used 4wd petrol fortuner in the pattaya area, it will be available in February. 

    I'm happy for you.  Then there's my friend who wants me to go with Fortuner but it's nice and quality (that goes with the Japanese brands) but I really like this Isuzu Rough Terrain mode vs Toyota's diff lock.  I'll be ????

  8. Gals and guys I just put in an order after watching many YouTube Mux videos testing out off road.  I'm stunned and amazed on it's off road capabilities.  So in reality I don't need diff lock. The Mux comes with Rough Terrain Mode and it's more than enough.  One reviewer was saying its almost as good as diff lock but less maintenance and worries compare to diff lock and it's all about the driver's skill. Link.

  9. The design is striking solidly built and for sure won't be boring and tired looking into the future. I'll be my first SUV.  I was debating between a truck and an SUV.  I have lands to roam and maintain but after a long thought it's like how many times per year will I be hauling and towing stuff from my lands or from Homepro stores.  Nowadays stores deliver for almost free.

  10. Ok I know I've asked few months before and others have asked as well.  Isuzu mux 3.0 4x4 seems like a perfect suv for me and my needs but should I just wait a little about 6 months and see what other brands will come out with?  I know Mitsubishi and Nissan and Ford about to release their next generation SUV in Thailand.  What's missing from Mux for me is that 360 camera which I car about ????or I can just add one on later

    It depends entirely on what it is being taken for, which the OP does not state.

     

    OP: I recommend against altering the dosage unless advised by a physician. Regarding the timing, yes you can change it but do so gradually such that the doses are never more than 12 1/2 hours apart. E.g:

     

    5:30 PM and next dose at 6 AM then

    6:30 PM and next dose at 7AM

    7:30 PM and next dose at 8 AM

     

    within 3 days you are on the schedule you want.

     

     

    Ok I'll just embarrass myself.  I bought very cheap mens briefs undies and went trekking.  those things just rubbed the life out of foreskin.  It has been almost 3 wks, no healing, the closest I got was last wk but again it seemed to never went ago.  its dried and somewhat chapped.  I tried cream, lotion, and Vietnams no help.  So I was told 1000mg Amoxicillin twice per day total 2,000mg per day.  It's been 5 days I'm very tired, and last 4 days I had this this cough with phlegm sometimes it comes out a little bloody.  Thankyou for everything and please save my pecker.

    It's hyperthyroidism as previously stated.  Hyperthyroidism can cause goitre, and it's probably the goitre that's to be surgically reduced in size (not removed).  This image perhaps suggests why it's known as "throat eat blood" in Thai:

    I believe it's particularly common in Isaan where levels of iodine in food are low.

    She gets super tire all the times.  Thank you so much!

    To me it means thirty (30) days, inclusive of weekends and holidays.

     

    But maybe ask MoneyGram for their definition?

     

     

    Does this mean today's the 29th of October, so I have 2 more days until November 1st which this will be a new 30 calendar day so this will reset the limit?  If I were to send today $10,000 and wait till November 1st I can send another $10,000?

    The Legender is the top trim level of the Fortuner. The Fortuner is a pick-up based SUV built on the HiLux chassis (Toyota IMV chassis used by HiLux, Innova and Fortuner). I doubt it has a single component in common with the Camry - which is a vastly more sophisticated vehicle. PPVs like the Fortuner and MUX etc are designed and built for emerging markets where ride and handling is of less interest than simplicity, robustness and low production costs.  Moreover they allow the manufacturer a healthy profit margin by using the underpinnings of a low-cost pick up.  

    Having said that the Fortuner is a decent enough vehicle for Thai road conditions, my issue with it is simply that its vastly overpriced for what it is.

    But the Aussie import these truck based SUVs unless they switch something out?

    I believe what you're looking for is a product like เบสสบู่กลีเซอรีนใส

    You can buy it online at https://shopee.co.th/เบสสบู่กลีเซอรีนใส-ฟองเยอะ-ทำจากน้ำมันธรรมชาติ-i.168102366.5755068618?gclid=Cj0KCQjw3f6HBhDHARIsAD_i3D974zeD9_EURnFJ5VR0maE6g40YJzsfYzW14P5yu-vQrsWs4w9QGP4aApE-EALw_wcB

     

    In Udon, on Phosri Rd, just a few doors away from the Siam Commercial Bank, same side of the road, a store sells products like glycerin, fragrance, and I'm guessing soap chip/blocks.  

     

    Thankyou!!!!

  16. Where can I buy soap chunks around Udon, Nong Khai and essan regions that are already made so I can melt them and add my own scent and perfume?  Are there any manufacturers?  I'm willing to buy a good amount. Thanks in advance 

  17. I've been out of the car scene for decades.  I can't decide between Isuzu Mux 2021 and the current Mazda CX-9.  The Mux is latest gen but it uses the previous gen engine.  The CX 9 is old and it's going to get a total redesign.  These 2s have design language that speaks finished design and complete and reliability. Corect me if I'm wrong on things.  Should I just wait for the next generation Pejaro Sports, Fortuner and or Nissan Terra?  and Why?  My mentality is buy latest greatest everything.
