  1. When there is a waiting period for new cars, why would one think they's been sitting around for months for waiting to ship? As I understand it, the manufacturer's warranty starts from the date the first owner receives it. If someone is selling a "new" car without a new car warranty, while it might be a great deal, the car is not new.
  2. Why are you telling me? I never said he wasn't. Fact. I see you are still grasping at straws, oh what a wicked web we weave....
  3. If I bought an older vehicle with an automatic transmission and no service records, I would then take it to B-Quik (or some-such) while the oil is very hot and have them do the "re-refine" filtering/flushing process. Then, after driving it for over a thousand km I would take it back to B-Quik (or some-such) and have them drop the pan, replace the strainer and change it to the correct, factory specified fluid. Then after driving it another ten thousand km I would take it back to B-Quik (or some-such) and have them change it with the correct fluid again.
  4. Not sure where you drive, but I see them all the time on concrete roads, so not just on black top.
  5. So after the Motor Show?
  6. Nice new pumps and convenient to where I fuel and have the car washed. I think I was getting better milage, but have not checked in a while, and it takes a lot of data to really see a difference. Yes, I have a member for PT, a small discount on fuel, 50% off on 10 drinks month at their PunThai coffee shops and 10% of Coffee World shops. I like the PunThai shops and where I get the car washed it is huge and has great seating, which works out nice. My wife has the Blue Card and does something with the points.
  7. So one to ten, how did you like it?
  8. Yes, we all know how much you love having a leisurely lunch at a pump while on a road trip...
  9. But Trump's not a Democrat, so what the confederate flags? Everyone knows Democrats are the party of slavery, Jim Crow, Bull Conner, George Wallace and segregation.
  10. Well, if you could show where I was wrong, I will happily admit it and apologize, but you have not been able to show that the way I have. Pretty weak, as expected.
  11. You could just apologize and admit you were wrong, but I doubt we'll see that.
  12. I heard Trump is a big supporter of EVs
  13. I read it. But if you don't know just forget it.
  14. Is that all you have? I never said it was your reply.
  15. What test are you talking about, and what is AVia?
  16. No, you replied to a post with something that had nothing to do with it. Fact. This is the post you responded to: Fact. To which you responded: "It's well documented that Trump's trying to get out of putting up the bond. Fact." Fact. That has nothing to do with: "Everybody else needs to post 110% before an appeal." Fact. Now, do you have anything that supports the claim that "Everybody else needs to post 110% before an appeal." or not?
  17. As far as I know, no one has claimed Trump is trying to get out of paying, but thanks for putting it out. The unsupported claim was that: "Everybody else needs to post 110% before an appeal." Your post does not support that claim. Fact. Now, do you have anything that supports that claim?
  18. A lot of people love this kind of stuff, and it was a pretty epic production. Huge plot holes have to be ignored, but audio and special effects are great.
  19. So dude has nothing to support it and dude was making it up. That's what I thought, thanks.
  20. Date, brand, kilometers at fill, liters, total cost of fill-up, cost per liter, kilometers per liter previous fill-up, fuel type The last four columns are totals since purchase: Kilometers, liters of fuel, Kilometers per liter, miles per gallon. The brand and fuel type so I can sort and check the average milage of different fuel brands and types. Someone claimed: "The fortuna <sic> will be drinking like a camel @120kmh." so I made a joke about camels going a long time without a drink. Then for whatever reason you jumped in and effectively called me a liar, (which annoys me (when I am not lying) more than when some random know-nothing talks smack about my ride), so I posted records that support my claim. Not sure what you are trying to do by jumping in and calling me a liar. Care to elaborate? I do not think buying an EV is silly, and I never said as much. I have said there are some reasons for buying EVs are silly. That said, I do think that someone posting on a car forum that knows they are looking at fuel records can't even tell the date in a spread sheet and figure out at least a few of the other columns is a bit silly.
  21. Last ten fill-ups: Not so far in Thailand. Thanks, that means a lot coming from you.
  22. The Fords are good looking, I'm sure you'll love it. My neighbor has one for about five years and he still loves it.
  23. Since I've been in Thailand, I've had two Toyotas (a pick-up and a Fortuner) and four Isuzu pickups. I'm driving a Toyota now, but do not think you can go far wrong with either. All were good units with not problems. I like the Isuzu better and think it's the better value and it's on a newer platform. Almost (I think) 10% cheaper than the Toyota and the service is about 50% cheaper and no up-selling. I've a number of Fords in my life including two pickups. One was 20 years old when I sold it, and the other was 30 years old when it got stolen. They were both great, but I did have to put a clutch in both as well and brakes and whatnot. Unless you're really out in the sticks, I would not get the 4 X 4. Costs more to buy, more parts, and costs more to service. I had one for four years & 200,000km when I lived out in the province and loved it, but I only ever used the 4WD once, and that was just to try it. Had two Highlanders after that. If you don't need the 4 doors, don't get it. Costs a good bit more and the bed is much smaller. That said, the two-doors only really have two seats. Go and look at them and drive them. Buy what you like.
