Owned more than a few nice ICEVs myself. No regrets there, though can't say I'd ever need or buy another. Highly doubtful after owning an EV. Maybe if I didn't live in TH. Not sure what the CS network is in the USA, and if there, that would be the deciding factor. As if there, I'd probably be very nomadic. Spend most of my nights sleeping in National Parks probably, hopefully some kind of RV, preferably all electric (EV & Solar powered w/ESS). Hang out in the South during winter, and North during summer.

That's quite the silly article, with no info about who, what & where, those 'voting' are. Just some random Reddit post 😂 This being the only true stat, and with that, it's obvious, a larger percentage of Aussies prefer the USA, than Yanks preferring OZ. Those that obviously have lived in both. ... "Australian Bureau of Statistics data shows that there are almost 110,000 US-born residents in Australia while US Census Bureau data estimate that there are 97,800 Australians in the US." Per capita that is, and that doesn't include the 10-20M illegal immigrants in USA: 0.032844 % of Yanks prefer OZ 0.036243 % or Aussies prefer USA Haven't been to OZ, but don't think I'd enjoy it as much as USA. Too man venomous snakes, crocs, and white shark. Though California & Florida seem to be bite capitals of the world many years. Landscape isn't diverse enough either to be interesting long term. Got Penguins though 👍

You obviously didn't read the article. So an OTA / software update is considered a recall .... 😂 From the link: ... "Does that mean it considers OTAs (Over The Air updates) as recalls? It does if NHTSA calls it a recall."

👍👍

Far from it ... just the trolls, or idiots if the shoe fits. Is it really that hard to stay on topic, at least close to the topic. I'm impressed with the posts on this thread already. None of the hater BS, and some decent posts with real concerns. No what ifs, not false info, no silly vids from EV/CH haters. Kudos 👍 Here's an example of silliness ... ... Aussie Rugby forum, and talking about the finals ... I come along and state ... Why do you people watch pro sports. In the USA pro Football is fixed, and if you want to know who's going to win the game, just watch the Vegas betting spreads. 😂 Welcome to TH EV threads ....

Ouch ... the quoted part is a bit scary 😮

Back on Topic ... Nothing special, just a sausage, egg & cheese sandwich. Only worth noting for the sausage (sage) recipe (copy cat Jimmy Dean sausage recipe). If never had, well worth giving it a try, as a favorite of mine.

On that ... saw this today, pricey at $450, but pretty cool, for camping or the paranoid prepper. Bunch of other DIY versions using sat dishes. Helped kill an hour today 😂

I can't wrap my head around all the species names of birds. Some of the differences are so slight, its just silly. Even just the eye color will get you a different species. Humans aren't separated into species because of our eye color. I got like 170 different species photos in TH. Then when I see an ebird alert I have in Gmail, about a rare bird spotted locally, I think, I got a snap of that, I just didn't look for that silly difference, whether eye color, or squared vs forked tail feathers. So could probably add another 20-25 to my list of. Too lazy to go back and sort through my 1000's of photos, just to add a few, almost identical bird to a sub species list.

I did state, '.... not the failure of Hertz rental, using EVs." They did struggle past few years, even filing bankruptcy, but pulled themselves up a bit, under the protection of Chapter 11.

I wouldn't consider any of those countries 'affordable' on just my govt & company retirement funds. Not without a nice wad for an oops fund, along with able to buy out right, home & car. USA alone doesn't have a wide choice of affordable BEVs or solar, compared to TH, along with high RE Taxes and silly healthcare cost, even if having insurance. Many others are the same, and those cost would chip away at your pocket money, if any left over ... ... NO THANKS

Don't know about worldwide, but in USA, per # of vehicles affected, Tesla didn't even make the top 10 last year: *** how accurate, don't know, don't care, just happen to be link at top of search results.

Better if OP's link wasn't behind a pay wall, might be able to read it. Reckon this is info source from the same, since also 25 countries: (noticeably missing TH & neighbors)

Really ... hard to miss them here, year round, though they get listed as a seasonal bird. We got at least 10 within 100 meters of the house. Usually a few perched around the garden & house, and the electric line, running down the soi to main road. Always a few lined up on that.

We noticed the same here with E85, as when bought the MG ZS (ICE) designed for E85, and at the time, 2020, price per 100 kms was about the same as 91, though 28% cheaper than 91. Just a wee bit better performance with E85. Now they are basically the same price, so why bother, especially when getting about 3 kms more per liter out of 91. Besides, E85 was/is harder to find than an EV CS now 😂 Actually surprised they haven't fazed it out, along w/E20. Why would anyone buy either.

Don't need to defend our decision, as one of the best for us. I wouldn't mind people disagreeing with me, who actually owned one, or at least test drove one. Presented facts to back up their silliness, instead of guessing and what if scenarios. What if they just STFU. Just now, we have a thread about the imports & production of EVs in TH, do we really need an off topic post about Hertz rental car experience with EVs, not in TH. Especially when it's been posted at least 3 other times. Once with it's own dedicated thread, I think. Or how everyone is so unhappy with their EV purchases in the UK, and how expensive CSs are, and not enough or inop, when we're discuss how great the price is in TH, and more than enough CS, at present. Or one of the totally false YT vids how CH dumps EVs in giant graveyard, to keep the sales #s up, when it reality, it was a couple rent a car companies that failed. Or posting from all the ignorant, misinformed that post completely false or inaccurate info, that's been corrected time & time again. Only to repeat the same BS on different thread, and nobody is suppose to notice. Some people are actually interested, wish to buy in the future maybe, or just trying to learn from the experienced owners. Instead they get a bunch of false, out dated, inaccurate info from a bunch of total F'g idiots, for lack of a kinder descriptions. People ... do some research before posting and appearing really ignorant, or worst, extremely stupid. Just a thought.

It's that season, and a bunch of Green Bee-eaters around the house & garden areas.

That's pretty easy. Here's a basic mix, and just adjust to your taste (usually chili powder) after all done in the pan. I use cayenne pepper, if use red chili flakes, the go light on them, as 2X the heat of cayenne. I pass on the sugar, as the green & red pepper have enough.

Just tired of good, informative threads being ruined by the haters.

This should cover everything you missed: https://www.youtube.com/@serpentza https://www.youtube.com/@AutoExpertJC

Topic is .... Thailand & EV sales & production. .... not the failure of Hertz rental, using EVs. You could repost here and probably get a better response, although that news-blip has been posted about 3 times already.

Rant your little hearts out, as the EV fanboys, we would prefer you stop posting in the 'positive' and 'informational' thread. Especially when not on topic. Now y'all have to threads to enlighten us: ... Everything that's wrong ... ICEV vs ICE debate thread PLEASE BOOKMARK ... so you can return & post every negative YouTube and Op-Ed/news-blip.

I use the same method, as I only cook hard boiled eggs, and want the firmer yolk.

Yes ... this brand and like how they are individually wrapped:
