Thanks for all the comments.

In the end it is the Isuzu V Cross 4x4 auto which is being purchased.

Retail is Bt1,257,000 and there is about 30k off this and a few freebies like liners, internal wheel arch protection, tank of fuel, 5 years servicing.

Not a massive deal but it is a decent interior, will last 10+ years and still have a decent residual value.

 

Can’t really go wrong with Isuzu. 
 

Nice color!

Have your wife contacted an auto transporter/importer, explain the situation and go from there.

So doubling-down on our condescension are we?

Trying to turn the argument around are we? You make a claim, that claim is disputed, backup your claim please.

 

Sorry, not you but cmarshall should backup.

What are you, a kindergarten teacher?

I made no claim. Dude called him a liar and claimed he did the research. I was only asking what he had found. 
 

I agree, I think it’s much lower.

..............now we see the power big pharma has

Yes, the power to save millions of lives every year. 
 

But for “big pharma” I would have been dead before I was sixty and my seventeen year old son would never have seen made it home from the hospital. 

You can order a box of 100 syringes on Lazada for 600 Baht and save yourself going to the clinic...

I agree with Nancy. Not feeling hot water on your hands is odd. 
 

My hands have become much more sensitive to heat as I have gotten older. 
 

Dude needs to see a doctor...

Why not take tha dog and snake to the vet? 
 

I had an Akita that got a couple snakes a year. Got cobra venom in her eye once but she got it...

WayWokeWhiteGuy do you need to make an appointment or do that take walk-ins?

Not sure if they take walk-ins or not. We always make an appointment

Great thanks for another option to check into. 15k is a lot seeing I can get it done back in the US for about 5,500b with x-rays. I, was just hoping to find someone reputable here in BKK for around the same price if not a little less. The one I use back home is great but It's just been hard with Covid to set an appointment as they are running thru the back log from being closed most of the time during the pandemic and unfortunately I had to cancel my next appointment cause it conflicted with me being over here for the next couple months.

You might get a simple cleaning for that, but you are not going to get a dentist in the US to spend an hour in your mouth for that.
 

My scaling a few weeks ago with full mouth x-ray was a less than 3,000

15,000?

I like Dr. Pintippa at BKK Hospital dental center. 
 

Been using her for at least ten years, best service I have ever had from any dentist anywhere. 

You sound like you already know everything you ever will. 
 

The gages tell you when it full. Try reading the instructions 

The AC could be dirty fan, fan bearing, dirty filter, weak fan-motor. 
 

Does it blow hard?

Yes the tariff wall kills them, just can't compete on price. Mazda and Honda with their assembly plants in ASEAN countries satisfy the criteria and thus dodge the tariff.

 

I wonder if we'll see the Korean makes follow suit and set up manufacture/assembly plants in an ASEAN country down the track a bit

Kia manufacturers in Vietnam. Is Vietnam not an ASEAN country? 
 

I doubt the market here is big enough to support them. 
 

A lot of moaning on about tariffs, but no one seems to care about excise taxes which are much more painful.

On many engines the water pump is driven by the timing belt so it is very easy to change it whilst the belt is already removed. This is why timing belt (full) kits come with a new tensioner and water pump.

I have not seen a water pump driven by a timing belt. Is this a relatively new thing?
