Wasn't a car person either, and with one exception, all my vehicles were quite practical and thrifty values. Nothing to impress anyone. Did buy a Firebird to sell for profit, from a govt auction, but after driving for a week, quite fun, decided to keep it. Never paid more than $5k for a vehicle, in the USA, and only bought 1 new one, a work truck, so practical and needed the dependability. Really the opposite here / TH, and on my 5th new car, along with 3 new MC

Most come with an 8 year battery warranty, and the market here is too young for anyone to need replacing a battery. MG even offers a lifetime battery warranty on most models. With most using LFP chemistry, the batteries really should outlast the rest of the car, and probably the same with the electric motors, which MG again, warranties for life, I think. Hopefully by the time the rest of the car craps out, folks here will have an easy plug & play for the battery pack to be added to solar systems.

About time the USA got out of the regime change and war mongering business. Big win for the USA tax payer. Stop all foreign aid, as borrowing money to give away is just stupid.

Interfering with and inconveniencing people's lives, always gets you support for your cause

Depends how long you keep your cars. First 3 cars here, we kept for about 125k kms / 7 years each. 4th only had 2 years, and upgraded to the BEV version. As plan on keeping till it dies, which should be considerable savings over the life of the car, vs the ICEV version. Actually glad now that we did sell the ICEV when we did, as it had a 100k price drop, since the price war started. Aside from the normal depreciation, add that price drop, and it really wouldn't be worth selling now if still had. If not having solar, we probably would not have sold the ICEV and upgraded to the BEV version. Simply staying ignorant about the more comfy ride & performance. We were very happy with the ICEV version, obviously since upgrading to same make & model.

Should you not be all knowing by now

They really needed a study to figure that out. A lot of wasted hours and resources, and hope it didn't cost to much.

to the title ... No, as don't see an advantage, or disadvantage about being a permanent resident, or not.

You're a hoot ... do you actually read the forum at all, before posting ?

... explains quite a bit, nuff said

I don't think I have that much time left in me. This is considered very conservative estimate, of 2500 cycle, and still retaining 70-80% capacity.

Besides being my first, definitely the one I had the most sex in

Easy, just posting photo, no commentary necessary. Same with food, usually. I need more species visiting though, as try not to post the same species again. There's a couple I'm waiting to get snaps of, if they'd profile for me a bit longer.

One mod even asked why I chucked at a news-blip. Must have been a sponsored blip, as pushing EV in TH, what's available and good choice. Or something like that. I chuckled as BYD wasn't even mentioned, as other actually posted the obvious. I try not to post on AN staff news-blip postings now, as can't tell which are sponsored or what I'm allowed to post. Another was about PKK, and I disagreed in a negative manner with the OP, and that definitely was a sponsored vid. Can't be shining a bad light if they want people to come somewhere. Oops. Got warnings 2X in 2 days last week or so. Don't need them folks in my fan club Too late ... checked my profile shortly after, and had 3 recent views ... all mods Note to self ... stick to food and EV & Solar

I think that would be down to 'Imm office location' dependent. I simply stated what my Imm office requires. Obviously some are more 'relaxed', others, possibly asking for even more than mine. The only thing consistent with govt offices here, is the inconsistency.

You might want to lead with cost, as probably the most expensive monitoring system. You could get the 'urine' litmus strips, as I sampled them, and were surprisingly accurate, along with very inexpensive.

Or given a medal, as just imagine if some youngins found them, and thought they were candy. You assume a lot, that the dogs are vicious, or even roam the streets where kids play. May live very rural for all we know. Or even in urban setting, and well behaved. Nong Bua district, UT, can be either, but looking quite rural to me. We have plenty of dogs roaming around my area, and none are aggressive. That's saying a lot, since I walk our dog around the area.

Yep ... and I pray they add a new tax form at renewal / extension time. "Where's tax form ? " ... Oh crap

I'm sure the bean counters worked there numbers, and acted appropriately with the info 'they' had. It was during covid, and IF here, on an -0-, you weren't going anywhere. If coming when opened again, then added to -0-A-, and easy enough for people to understand. Well, most people. Since early arrivals had to be hospitalized when tested positive, it didn't take long to realize ... hey, let's require insurance, as too many didn't have it.

Least use day Most use day App upgrade, with new stats provided ... ... Average daily use - 13.85kWh ... Average overnight (14 hrs) battery use - 4.42kWh

It's easy enough to hide in any country. Having his name & home address is only good if he stays at his home. Doesn't state that in the OP, only that they arrested him at his home. May have been the first time he visited and stayed long enough to get caught at the home

I don't believe they have changed the 0 non immigrant visa, for retirement or marriage, since I've been here, 25 yrs. They have enforced more of the rules, to stop people abusing it. Thank your fellow expats for that. But the requirements have not changed, I don't think, nothing noticeable. The did add health insurance to the 0-A visa, during covid, and that makes sense, since more than a few were stiffing hospitals. 0 non immigrant is easy to get & extend yearly, if you qualify, and all simple enough to do. After a tester, of a year or 2, if TH isn't for you, you can always leave, or if lovin' it, decide where to stay. More than enough people to assist without the scare mongering that goes on, from those that failed.
