Say it's not so ... Cross pinching MG's styling 😲

Too irresponsible to use birth control ... not much hope for them to understand & use the voting system. 15 weeks is till allowed, and if having one, really should be that time. They have till Nov when 6 weeks comes into effect. Maybe they can learn to be responsible by then, and not be a repeat murderer.

Now you're comparing apples & orange/car loans & mortgages. Long approval times, and what a seller/buyer accepts, is irrelevant when time for approval, and the appraisal is done. I'm not very trustworthy of used car assoc. opinions, as lets be real, does he or whoever have more ICEs in stock, or EVs. They're not going to say EVs are the way to go, easy approval, unless they have a large inventory of. Read between the lines people, and use common marketing sense. That's how I got to where I am, thinking for myself, not listening to those with a vested interest.

You correct, I don't bother reading all these silly links, and go by life experiences from people I know & respect. And certainly not Thaiger news-blips. Might as well read DailyMail or National Enquirer. Someone states 'it's unlikely' ... sounds like an opinion, not a fact. As I stated, banks loan money at based on appraised value, not future depreciation. My experiences anyway, and I'll stick with that knowledge, which directly conflicts with what you're implying.

Older Tesla Model 3s with 300+ miles, not bad at all, considering the older tech.

And you know this how ? Do you really think the bank cares what you borrow money to buy might depreciate in the future, as that's pretty much a given, with the exception of Land & RE. More what ifs ... any real info or personal experiences. Not even a friend of my cousin's boss story.

Guessing you also don't have 800k to deposit ? Which case, you don't qualify for Ret Visa.

I can't see EV being any more of a risk that ICEV repos, as they are basically the same price, and loans approved on same qualifying rules. If anything, less risk, as cheaper to operate, so buyer has more liquid baht to pay the bank note. More silliness from the anti folks. Another what if scenario, along with the ol' doom & gloom sells. Getting old & unoriginal. Don't have anything else, at least more interesting Thaiger, noted for the excellent spot on blips. I like the last sentence, as might be able to pick up a 2nd, on the cheap, from bank.

UK again ...

Hey .... where would the EV world be without 100 years of ...

Yes, stated the same on the other thread ... "I'm actually hoping sales level off, and mainly so the ratio of EVs on the road, and ratio of CSs remain the same, as long as they are still able to make a profit with numbers already available & using. " That would suck if they start closing them, though doubt if MG every would ... saving grace. Bad enough finding accommodations that are pet friendly .... "do you allow EV charging? " I've only done that once, at a guesthouse, and he wouldn't take any money. Then I noticed the solar panels on the bungalows 👍 Though have seen a few folks charging from their bungalows while O&A, and we do take a 20m proper cord with us when on the road, JIC

A just OK baby bok choy/onion/beef stir fry, since I forgot the minced garlic & ginger ... oops A sprinkle of garlic powder helped, after plated. Would have helped cut the rice vinegar, which I think I used too much in the sauce. Me & the dog did manage to polish it off.

Simply saying they/H cars, been around for 27 yrs at least, as promoted as a replacement for EVs*** at the time, that there was a waiting list for, but discontinued. Over those 27 yrs, nobody wanted, no sales, so no real infrastructure, I think, and why it didn't work then, and won't work no. I consider H fuel just another expensive to produce, ship, store, ship, deliverable fuel same as fossil fuels, petrol/diesel. Might and hopefully will replace diesel for long haul, heavy equipment, though natural as is already available for that. Really can't see it being developed for personal vehicle use, although it will be pushed for just that, by the same profiteers that have controlled the transportation fuels/energy ... until now *** Recommended viewing; "Who Killed the Electric Car"

Doubt that very much, as H been around for at least 27 years in USA, and here's the H infrastructure over those 27 years. Most of the few there, are located in CA & NY.

Aside from shop around, already suggested ... ... make sure walls & surfaces are properly prepped ... DO NOT ADD any water to primer or paint, no matter what any idiot suggests or tells you. You immediately change the chemistry & properties of both. Really can't be emphasized enough. Surely somebody will come on here and says it's fine, normal and done all the time. Doesn't make it right. But when does diluting anything, make it better ?

Not me, and just buy what I need and or think I'll use. Present EV is entry model, and still a feature or 2 that are disabled or not use. Does 2 things, saves us money from buy in, and headaches of the options ( as they do) fail in the future. Most complaints about cars are the options, as the manufacturers seem to have the drivetrain down to a science.

Agree and if not for our O&A (out & abouts), further than necessary, we would never need to use either. We can visit our daughter at Krung Thep, without stopping to charge, along with Immigrations for my yearly extension, and that office is 100 kms away. We get on average, 320 kms over the road driving, and 360 kms local driving on a full charge. Using about 80% +/- of that, gets us anywhere we 'need' to be. I've yet to be in any area of the country, the whole country, that hasn't had a charging station within 150 kms of each other. More like 5-10-25-50kms within each other, if not 5 within a square within 1 sq km, where needed. Very rare to be more than 50 kms apart. We have 4 locally, within a km of each other, if not less, I we live in Nakhon Nowhere. There's approx 15+ CS between our house and Imm office, about 100 kms away. Not even going to count how many on the way to Krung Thep, <300 kms away. A lot more to show, if I zoomed in.

Feel free to download the app (Charge Loma) and zoom in for closer peak if you like. I can't be bothered with your trolling, and silliness for someone who has no experience, knowledge or interest in EVs. Have a good one.

Thoughts from elsewhere .... DON'T BELIEVE THE BS ... ... as TH has and excellent, extensive charging network. These are just the 4 vendors we use, (EV Station Pluz, PEA Volta, MG, Elexa), and not complete listing of all, but close enough. And also only the fast plug chargers, providing 50kWh + UP.

Before taking your EV in to have something you think is not working correctly, do read the owner's manual, and or, check the settings of you EV. Ours was no longer auto locking the doors, once rolling along, 15 kms or so, they auto lock. So wife scheduled an appt for them to peek at it, and see what the issue was. 0930 hrs appt for half day inspection, as possibly needed to track down the issue. Receive call at 1000 hrs, and completed, assuring me that the MG service staff are excellent, well trained, knowledgeable in their craft. Arrive to pick up, and service rep chickie tell the wife, it was just a setting that was 'disabled' .... 'DUMB A$$' Of course I wonder, how did it get disabled in the first place. Oh well, all's well that end's well, and gave us an opportunity to be out of the house earlier than usual, have an excellent brekkie of GraPhao, using stewed beef, and best I ever had. With a mediocre side of eggs in a pan. All of ฿125 for both dishes (80+10 (egg) + 35), for myself. Stroll in park after, and a Makro run, all before noon.

I'm actually hoping sales level off, and mainly so the ratio of EVs on the road, and ratio of CSs remain the same, as long as they are still able to make a profit with numbers already available & using. Along with no price war and more sales, keeping the value of our EV, higher, in case ever wanting to sell it, though doubtful. Yea I know ... very selfish of me, but it is all about .... Me Me Me If wanting to read about some real life experiences, there are 2 thread running, under used or viewed, and not trolled nearly as much. The good, the annoyances, and even the bad, maybe. Started by that super genius, in his own EV bubble world. ... owning ... Charging stations

Sad but true, and mirrors our experience with daughter's (private) schools. Mandatory 'extra' classes, as simply a money grab.

What visa do you have now ? No matter what visa, marriage or retirement (2 common for long stay), you need to extend every year, along with doing 90 day pulse checks, which are easily done online. May want to actually read the 'Thai' Imm site to know what is expected when applying & extending, as there is a financial requirement, which you want to start as soon as possible, unless using the lump sum deposit in bank (800k).

I don't know about y'all, but I didn't know it was illegal to do. Wonder what the citation was for. From the vid, there didn't seem to be anyone on the beach area, so not reckless endangerment.
