I really doesn't get any easier. From Nana Square, you're just over half km from main highway/toll rd to north (hwy #1). Take that to hwy #2, and that takes you to Korat.

Choose better restaurants. Although, more likely .... try talking to the staff, as all your issues are easily resolved with a bit of communication.

One of the silliest statements I've read. Somebody hates China. Mekong River has been flooding long before China built their first dam on it. source

Probably because it's a silly question, with a few variables, and only the most inexperienced driver would post it, in the manner you did. You either don't drive much, at all, or never heard of Google Maps. Only advice I got for you , is leave before the sun comes up (pre 6 AM), and you'll beat all the rush hour traffic, and be up on the plateau, hopefully before all the truckers & buses. OK, maybe not, but at least before most cars. And watch those scooters making U-turns. If leaving early enough, you can avoid the toll road, but if you take it, drive the speed limit, as multiple speed cameras up there..

That number was noted if you read the full statement I posted. And I though I speed read a lot. ... "In 2022, 1,244 people in the US died from carbon monoxide poisoning, according to provisional CDC data. Of those deaths, 624 were accidental and 579 were suicides."

A work in progress ... only you and or your politicians are preventing 100% success You can do it, or wait for the idiots you elect to do it ... which do you think will happen faster ?

Don't know how that doesn't sink into some folks. As if oil to petrol isn't already complicated enough ... What next, nuclear fuel rods, just fill up with water at home ...

Wow ... you are actually on topic ... accidently of course. Let's open that can of worms. How many people died while in the EV, non moving, sleeping, camping, or what ever ? And no, didn't bother searching as probably extremely low. In just the USA ... ... "In 2022, 1,244 people in the US died from carbon monoxide poisoning, according to provisional CDC data. Of those deaths, 624 were accidental and 579 were suicides." I await your fake #s, or silly vid, meme, BS

Also to note, 2022, they upgraded the 44kWh battery to 50kWh, along with better LFP chemistry ... again, no price increase from 2020 to 2022 model upgrade. Of course, add in (or subtract) the 240k incentive from the govt, which has also remained the same, while others models & makers have gone to 150k, even to 100k on selected models. Super sale now, if you can get some of the remaining stock, before the 2025 hits the auto shows / market. Price should be interesting, but I wouldn't expect it to be more than discounted prices of late 869k or 829k. Surely not the 599k super sale price. Kind of hoping someone steals ours, so we get a new one, for no cost, or even better, Insurance company gives us a pay out, cash, and we snag a 599k one, with a bit of change in the pocket

I'm confused GG .. as first you're looking at 10k baht ballpark phone, now considering a 44k baht phone. Not even sold here and as mentioned, if it has an oops ... then what ??? You won't buy anything from CH, yet you are replacing your Xiaomi. Does it have to be Android, if not, then iPhone is comparable to Pixels, depending who is a fan of either. Not an Apple fan, so I'd go w/Pixel, but since not available, I'd go with Xiaomi. Do you really need a 40k baht phone, as most of that cost is the camera. That doesn't seem to be your priority use of the phone. For me, it would be. I was looking at a Xiaomi when you originally posted (Samsung), but out of your budget, & then read, no CH phone. This is a nice Xiaomi & 35.9k baht

The MG ZS EV is a small family SUV. Do apples to apples ... MG4 Xpower ... 3.8 secs At least post something that's available. Honda Accords available now, are a bit slow. Even the HEV is rated at ~8 secs

Doesn't take any planning at all, touring around TH, after the first trip, yo realize you planning was a waste of time. More than enough CS conveniently located. Please stop repeating what you don't know.

At the time, I wouldn't pay 1.2M for any car. EV @ 949k was a big stretch for me, though really glad we did, as the performance is almost worth the 250k over the our 2020 ICE version price. Now, knowing how well they perform, if younger, I'd probably pick up that Maxus 9, if discounted a bit, and convert it. Or another van that wasn't so plush & cheaper. Unless someone came out with a decent E- pick up, worthy of putting 'E-camper' on the back. That's (pick up) actually still an option I'm open for, since it's just the 2 of us, and I don't need a back seat. Need to do it fast, as I ain't getting any younger.

Probably correct, in the future. But at the moment, it's a better performing vehicle, that cost less, or should, if in a country that isn't anti CH.

Yea ... they will continue to repeat themselves over & over again. Just ignore them

False, you can top up when ever you want to, and range has never been an issue in my BEV experience, unless you enjoy driving 4+ hrs straight without stopping. CS are location (country) dependent, but no prob in TH ...

That's because you're using the old price, and ignoring the new price available, which makes them the same buy in price. For lack of repeating myself, and for others actually interest.

American Bully Dog ... And I thought the naming of bird species was silly. You can't make this sh!t up ... oops, corrected, apparently you can. It's even a real thing, recognized by those who will profit with the silliness of course I await the African America Bully Dog ... 😎

Not really. Depending on what we are comparing. Take the MG Maxus 9 van, & convert vs a Toyota comfy van and convert, adding panels & ESS. All things being equal on the interior, non power part. MG Maxus 9 is pricey, 2.5M range, but very plush inside. Toyota Libre from 1.7 - 2.2M + adding a solar system w/ESS Though a shame & waste to rip out the interiors of both.

Steering back to ICEV vs EV ... here's fine example why I'd never buy another underperforming, overpriced ICEV, of any version. I get the impression, ICEV shoppers don't look at specs. Something I do, compare specs before I even walk into a showroom. Why waste my time looking at under spec'd vehicles. Which would you choose ... and why ? Or post 2 like, apples & apples cars for comparison, and convince me the ICEV is a better value. My earlier 700k baht car comparison didn't even look at specs, just the petrol savings.

NO ... 2 parties only, and no compromises allowed. Although IMHO, they're is no difference in either party in the USA. Both self serving with no interest in what the citizens want.

That's a good topic, and they make them, or DIY. Stated a few times, I'd go the E-RV route if ever returned to USA. I few high tech solar panels producing 3 or 4 kWh an hour would work nicely keeping battery charged up enough to live in. If conservation, and weather cooperating. Keeps on crossing my mind here, till I come back to reality, as a bungalow with a view in nakhon nowhere is too inexpensive. If younger, I'd definitely do a DIY E-RV, but would be silly waste of money at near 70 yrs old.

Unlike some folks, I read & understood that the first time ... Just think, conversations about ICEV vs EV or EVs in TH, instead of ... ... fires ... ROI of solar ... exploding wet batteries ... LFP life expectancy ... dead batteries after warranty ... more expensive than ICEV ... explode on speed bumps ... no CS

We've repeated ourselves more than enough times, and one would think it sunk in by now. I'm sure I posted the same numerous times. Only repeat myself for curious new folks
