I commented my 2020 ZS ICE also had. But, my previous ICEVs did not, but also pre 2013. I didn't state ICEVs don't have, just mine didn't. People like to project what they think I implied, instead of what I stated. You'd have to be living in a cave or under that rock not to know the advances built into autos, that last 10 years. Guess that explains the ignorance of some posters thoughts & misinformation of EVs.

I guess you were speed reading or didn't finish, as I stated, our ICE (MG ZS) did the same, I think. I guess you were speed reading or didn't finish, as I stated, our ICE (MG ZS) did the same, I think.

If I have to explain the jokes .... Here's a hint ... "90 percent of Iranians practice Shi'ism. By contrast, most Arab states in the Middle East are predominantly Sunni." And people post on AN about geopolitical subjects

NO, a sequel, though you may want to give it a pass. Watched it the other night, and a bit disappointed (IMDB 7+ / Me 4). Along with Hellboy & Radleys, and lasted about 15 mins with both those.

Then you don't understand the middle east. Think Catholics & Protectants, but the middle east is still in the middle ages of progression. Remember back on the Iraq civil war, and that will help explain why that happened. Geez, mind boggling I even have to explain that. Although does explain a lot of the posts, and why the 'west' will never understand so many things ...

You're not going tO get a 'real time depreciation, till the price war settles, and still maybe not, due to improved or new tech coming the next 5-10 years. Look what has progress in just the last 5 years. Now LFP is the standard, unless performance or LR is wanted. Got to be 3 or more types of batteries in development now, that we'll see in the next 5 years. But fossil fuel isn't and won't be progressing, now or in the future. H2 for long haul trucking, and that's a stretch. If people are worried about depreciation when buying a new car, simple solution .... ... DON'T

That would depend on what sect Muslims they are, Sunnis and Shiites

21st Century ... maybe, if it picks up some speed from wiki ... I guess not ... cat 3 now, lessening ...

OK ... where's the photo of the new wife ...

Guess it depends on who's or what map you are looking at. Not these 2 obviously: source source

Highlighted in the news, as it fits their spin of MMCC. Not much has changed since they've been keeping records.

Would depend 'why' you are drinking alcohol. I've enjoyed it in the past, and even now. But rarely indulge now, and when I do, it's usually 1 drink, a beer or a Mojito. Even that is very rare. Strictly for health reason, as alcohol, truly is a poison to the body. Any amount. As a youngin', yes, drank many times for the buzz. But you eventually grow out of that phase, or should. Even stopped drinking alcohol socially about 10 yrs ago. More than a couple wasn't worth the after effect the next day. I really do enjoy a good beer though, and thankfully not many here TH, or simply silly priced. So easy to avoid. Back in USA, I had a 2 keg bar in my foyer at first house. One for me, one for guests

It requires Israel to stop expanding and treat Palestinians as equals. That's never going to happen ... IMHO

I don't think most people want to relocate every 6 months to avoid the burning season. If retiring in TH is the plan. Especially for those, that prefer to buy a home. Unless a condo or townhouse, with little to no yard, how do you leave it vacant for 6 months. North of Hua Hin would only work for us, if we didn't have a garden & Greenhouse. Then I could imagine living in the North, and being O&A for 6 months. But wouldn't enjoy living in a condo or townhouse with no garden 6 months either. Actually wouldn't mind being nomadic for 6 month, during smog season. Even though means staying in bungalows. Can't say we've done that for more than 2 weeks, so it might get old quick. Living out of a box and not home cooking. If you can't take the heat or smog, then TH probably isn't for you. Playing tourist or retiring makes a big difference in choices, though I don't go north in smog season, except to visit daughter (BKK), and they are short trips of a couple days.

Krabi town, nice place and since in south, less pollution (air), weather would be nice, though a bit warm, again, since in the south. We're an hour+ below Hua Hin, and it's been damn chilly overnight this week, and high of only 30 during the day. Couple weeks ago the same, as a week of overcast really drops the temps. Still have about a week left, and simply lovely temps. Although 6 months, at least, it would probably too warm for most, especially if new to TH. After a few years, you body will get acclimated to the warmer temps. Remember a visit back in USA, after here less than 3 years, and I was chilly. My friend was laughing at me, and pointed out, it's only low 70's F. Usually I'd be loving it. Udon Thani hits single digits C once in a while, and teens quite often for a month or 2. But also hot 6 months a year, since on the Korat Plateau. The concrete metros will generate a C degree 2 more.

Most women I know, along with the wife, which I stated somewhere, still 'smokin' hot', along with her peers, 45-50 yrs old. None bar gals, or even bother with the bar scene. When I was playing single dad here, non P4P bar hopping, and Thai establishments had plenty of babes in the 30-50 age bracket. Not all folks are heffers when they their 40s, worldwide, even the USA, contrary to the spin of everyone is obese in USA.

Is there a thread about Hurricane Milton, as this obviously isn't Got a bud that works at TPA airport, and hope he hopped a flight out of town.

Why would you even want to take THB out ? Just convert it to home country currency if that's where you're headed. Plan ahead if need more with you. I left with $40k USD once, and obviously didn't report it.

@ 16 mins into the vid ... I want one

Don't know how TH is different from any other country they may move to, or even finding new love in their own country. Choose wisely, and live with your choices, or not ... UP2U I've benefited greatly by being in TH, especially with 2nd Thai wife, coming up on 2 decades (19 yrs) living together. More so than the same amount of adult life in the USA. Both countries are fun, and provided plenty of opportunities & smiles Not a whole lot of romantics here. When it's love, you know it. The Mrs can leave anytime she wants, as she's self sufficient. Didn't need me before we met (52 &30), doesn't need me now.

That toe, actually both, have been slightly 'crushed' a couple times. I used to paint 'em, just the big toes, and they looked better, but the wife doesn't like the attention I use to get on the BTS/MRT when using. Might have been my choice of color, sparkly green

Since having only 1 inverter system, I really should prep for the worst. Or it gives me a reason to go O&A, and just have our installer sort it out. House key is under that rock, sorry, no beer in house. I got plenty of extension cords

I guess you don't buy any cars in TH, as there aren't many Thai auto makers here. There's the low spec'd Thai BEV truck maker .... oh crap

Actually it can, along with heat up your water kettle for a cuppa ... when you feel like chilling in Nakhon Nowhere ... Provide AC all night, while you snooze in it, without the worry of carbon monoxide poisoning. @7:20 of 2nd vid

Paragraphs, as if it isn't long enough. NO, didn't bother reading as the title is silly enough. Plenty of the world's country leaders have been women, and just as good or bad as men. The BIBLE ... now that's funny
