In the jungle

There must be crash damaged batteries, flood damaged and others that just failed. Hopefully they don't toss them into the land fill.

But, but.....titanium!

So where exactly in Thailand is the EV battery recycling plant?

I think, if I remember correctly, that you can go and see exactly that in frescos and sculptures in the British Museum. That's provided the exhibits haven't been stolen by the staff.

Didn't they used to do this type of wrestling naked back in the day?

Firefox works fine for me on a Windows 10 PC.

That's a weird brag. Hey! I really know how to spunk my money away. Meanwhile Khun LA is furiously hammering away at his calculator trying to make it look like his Chinese MG costs less to run than a bicycle.

Can any of you EV enthusiasts enlighten me. I understand the Tesla Model 3 starts at 1.7 million new. So why would there be a whole bunch of secondhand Model 3s on One2car at 2 million plus?

Surely they could get the sub delivered without the engine. Then make it into a long tail sub.

Well that is her definition as opposed to yours. In fact she gives more than one definition. I tend to agree with her second definition as opposed to consumer tat.

Handy that I don't have children then. Define the finer things in life.

I was talking about the MG4X specifically and I thought Mat Watson's comments on aesthetics were spot on. He rightly ridiculed the orange plastic brake caliper covers but I guess a fanboy could call them innovation on a production car.

I don't think the whole "masters of the universe" schtick really works in the OPs case but do carry on if you insist. By that I mean Dan O!

How wrong can you be. Yes I do have a wife but no children. My wife runs her own business and could easily support me but I do not want, or ask her, to do that. I eat at restaurants most days because I prefer doing that to spending time buying ingredients, cooking them and cleaning up afterwards. I eat whatever I want and most days that is not 40 Baht soup; but sometimes it is. The house is paid for as are the three cars. The farm generates a healthy income. I spend about 20% of my income from abroad each month and the rest is poured into more savings and investments. I readily admit to being careful with my cash. Mostly because I remember how damn hard it was to earn it. My only real reservation in respect of the OP is about the wisdom of making the leap at his age. Other than that if he has the determination to make a success of it go for it. I don't think there is any need for him to torch his assets back home. That would be unwise. The income would be enough.

I have no idea what some posters in response to the OP do with their money. Do they burn it in the back garden? Are they financially incontinent? All the posts saying OMG you will be living in poverty living on 40K a month. I couldn't spend 40K a month if I tried. And guys wittering on about 'lifestyle'. What on earth are you talking about? You need to leave off the Kool Aid.

Oh dear. I now see all the Raptor/penis gags were done two hours before I did.

I watched that. The MG4X has the aesthetic qualities of a tart's handbag.

I have a feeling that Ford make the Raptor specifically for men with small penises.

Despite some on this forum believing that I am an EV hater..... A Tesla model 3 dual motor pulled up to me today at the PTT. I thought it was cool AF.

You said the buyer is Thai. Buy another house and avoid this complication.

You can get a Laos E visa which saves a page in your passport but they will still hit you up for some cash at the border. That was my experience at Savannakhet.

I am not suggesting that Porsche Taycans caused the fire on the Fremantle Highway. But they certainly were on the ship and they burnt to the ground; or deck more accurately. Maybe you should re-read your previous claims on this matter.

This article with the pretty astounding pictures of Porsche Taycans on the Fremantle Highway undermine your claim that no EVs were burnt. https://www.autoevolution.com/news/check-leaked-images-of-the-damages-inside-the-fremantle-highway-roro-ship-219617.html

"Even though the cause of the fire is still unknown" Your quote undermines your definitive statement that EVs were not the cause.

The issue with EV fires is not the frequency. The severity of EV fires is the problem. I give you the Fremantle Highway as Exhibit A. These issues can be dealt with and should be dealt with but right now many manufacturers are focusing on growth rather than safety.
