ok. i like tarts. actually the interior is slightly nicer than a XLT in a way that I really like. 18" wheels. Very nice roll bar not a after market add on that was not thought out. blacked out grill and rear bumper, 

Happy to be corrected and time will tell but the FX4 MAX does not have 18" wheels from memory.

It does have chunky off road style tyres though and a suspension lift.

The roll bar is a sports bar and will do nothing in a roll over, the FX4 MAX one is better than the FX4 though... style wise in my opinion.

I can give you the contact of sales lady.

Very happy about the service and that they keep in touch for updates, servicing etc.

She also arranged the new insurance after the first year.

Insurance after the 1st year can be had a lot cheaper elsewhere if you sort yourself, she would be happy to arrange though as she would be getting a kick back.

how long ago did you buy the Ranger.... asking as the 1st service is not until 15000km and for many that will take some time so why is she keeping in contact for a "newly" purchased vehicle.

FWIW ive had mine for a few weeks now and have done 6000km, are you doing the same ?

i would not imagine they will be discounting new FX4s? still worth waiting for i was just curious.

New FX4 MAX... is still a tarted up XLT Ranger like the current FX4 so I would be angling for a discount.

this is good info. thank you.

 

yes i am going to wait now. I specifically asked this question about 2021 trucks and of course the answer was no one knows when they will arrive. 

 

All new 2021 Ranger should hit the showrooms approx October next year.... been some delays due to covid.

wow 17% sounds good. was this recent?

4 weeks ago but I get the supplier discount..... @ 919k I assume you are looking at the FX4, on my list I can can get that fora 12% discount.

Lean on the dealership though they have more fat they can cut from the price.... FWIW a new FX4 will debut in the coming months.

17% cash discount plus the usual freebies;

Insurance

Road tax

Red plate

Tub liner

Weathershields

Windowtint

So I'll take that as a no from you on any new closures to report. 

He does not live in Thailand/Pattaya so is frantically searching social media to keep his thread alive.

Any new closures to announce for the benefit of the thousands of tourists overseas sitting on the edge of their seats with anticipation following this thread ? 

hope so, they obviously need something to fap and rage over.

Meanwhile those of us that live here just on with life.

I don't think you understand what permission of stay means.  As far as I know, there is no such thing as a 2 year permission of stay.  If there is, it is extremely uncommon.  The max permission of stay is usually 12 months

 

Boi company employment. 2 year work permit and 2 year permission to stay extension.

Great news, may it stay in place for a long time.

Does he really want to get onto the work permit and B-Visa/extension bandwagon ?

Ask Nan Laew.

With COVID-19, wouldn't it be nice if Australia still had even one vehicle manufacturer to keep people employed?

????

Are you unable to answer my question, You post I qouted was nothing but dribble then it seems.

I see, Thais are better than Australians at building Fords. I guess that's why they have that 100% tariff wall on imports.

The relevance of where a car is designed escapes me.

So you're saying once a car gets past an age determined by the manufacturer, the customer should forget about customer support.

In what Regards are the Thai better at assembling a vehicle than Australians ?

 They dont know what exactly caused the crash, but he sped through a corner and lost control.

 

 

They dont know what happened or they do, your statement is contradictory.

Interesting to read that Ford are planning "...including the option of a V6 turbo diesel from its big brother F-150..." since the reason they gave for the T6 Ranger taking so long to appear on the US domestic market is that they feared it would steal buyers from the  F-150 stable and lose the long-standing truck market lead. The new 3.0 V6 turbo may get Thai regulatory approval as they are seen to be keen on smaller displacement engines. But if they go all green and start to hike taxes on diesels, well...

 

 

 

 

 

 

People in Thailand should not hold their breath in hopes of the V6, Neither should Australians as AFAIK that engine is only for the North America market.

Was it an oil filled suspension DM.....

Nah, Rancho 9000 gas filled.

A friends Altis is speed limited to 180km/h, Wonder if this lads vehicle has been modified ?

The ECU will tell the actual speed at impact.

My non B issued in Brisbane July last year does not have my employer listed.

What's the cost for the full synthetic?

Not sure, need to check the invoice as I had new suspension fitted and a wheel alignment as well.

If you have a 12-month permission to stay, you must make address reports every 90 days, but are allowed to stay until the end of your permission to stay. If you then wish to stay longer, you must apply for a further extension of your permission to stay.

I know what permission to stay extensions are, Iam on a 2 year one.

My question is about visa's. I thought they are valid for 12 months but require a border bounce every 90 days.

These 12 month visa's... is a border bounce required every 90 days ?

would suck to be not let back in due to WuFlu  !!

Yes, some of us can afford do that. I call it giving back to a country that gives me a great life and value for money.

I gave back to the country yesterday, my pickup just clicked over 5000km and even though 1st oil change is not due till 15000km to make me feel good about doing my bit for the countryduring this pesky WuFlu malarky I had 7 litres of full synthetic put in with a fresh filter, Am sure the owners of B-quik are well chuffed at my generosity.

I didn't say it was.  I said it would be a market wide release in those countries. Perhaps i wasn't clear.  A quote from the link I included........"CarAdvice understands the 2022 Ford Ranger is due to be unveiled in the first half of next year, by which time there will be a clearer picture of its local showroom arrival date. For now, the window is still wide open – late 2021 or early 2022 – because there are four Ford Ranger factories around the world (Thailand, South Africa, Argentina and the US) that need to ramp up production of the new model."

Awesome.
