Obviously depends on the car. If pristine motor as in vid, then no, why would you, unless simply wanting better performance. But if I had a couple of my past vehicles, which were mechanically challenged when I had them, and had them now, along with more money than I knew what to do with, then hell yea. 68 ish VW Van 50 Buick Special ... both electrified would be way too cool, as stock motors were on their last leg when I had them.

With parental consent. If you're going to comment on a thread, you should probably read the OP or reply you are commenting on. Then you wouldn't come off sounding like a perv. Just because young love/teen sex is acceptable worldwide, soliciting prostitution from children is not. The title states 'underage' ... or did you miss that also. You have to be a certain age just to enter or work in a bar. When someone, (older expat) states some 'age of consent' ... well ... nuff said Let's just say, I wouldn't let them watch the kids while I'm away, or have my daughter spend the weekend over at their house. "dad ... can I stay at my friends house this weekend" "does she have a farang in the house" "yes" .... "HELL NO" ... ????

apologies .... ????

Definitely solve the over population problem.

Best statement @ 2:20 of the vid .. ❤️

Yea, that thing pops up, more than couple times, and I'm done. Over to Gmap, to find a coffee/pastry shop ????

@HandsomeTallFarang Turn the AC on, can't quit now, as you're keeping the economy going.

Why, isn't everyone from an inter-cultural relationship down the line somewhere. Everybody I know is part Irish on St Paddy's Day. I always ask the gals to kiss the part on me that Irish. The frisky Leprechaun, as they like to call it, as it does magical things ????

Damn, that's cold. Nothing like love .. ❤️

You can thank your fellow skint expats, who live here irresponsibly, with no health insurance or oops fund. Stiffing the hospitals for millions of baht. And the only way they can do that .... IS USE AGENTS. We thank them for screwing the rest of us, who follow the rules, and now extensions are scrutinized, which TBH, I actually like. But it was nice when they/IOs were friendlier and didn't have to process 100+ pages, and things sped along.

Did you ask them pre covid, because I thought they wore them for smog. Far less wore them during non smog season, In my observations. I hope there aren't, weren't that many people walking around sick, as if they were even aware of the danger they posed before covid enlightened people that maybe they should stay home when sick. Just think of all the times I got in trouble at work, for using my sick time ... .... I guess now it's encouraged ... ????

I think I'll continue to pay myself 8-10k for that hour, while sitting at Imm on my phone, trolling AN. That's like 2 or 3X what I paid myself when I did work. And I get to pop into the mall (which we don't have) for some shopping or a munch. Or, pays for that weekend O&A. Give it away, or spend on yourself ... UP2U

And where would that be today, in TH, as even Phuket is mostly showing 'moderate' AQI #s

I was thinking prisons in general, are too comfy, to serve as punishment. The 13 yr old ... we have little info. He may have been a danger to others or himself. More importantly, why is a 13 yr old, even in prison. Parents ? Maybe they should serve his time, as it may help them put a little effort into raising him properly.

Our MG ZS ICE got a thirsty 10 kms per liter of petrol. Our MG ZS EV consistently get 360+ per charge (cycle) Cost per 360 kms comparison between ICE vs EV: EV (MG ZS) ... 360 kms @ home w/solar -0- ... 360 kms @ home w/grid @ ฿5 kwh = ฿232 ... 360 kms @ MG SuperCharger @ ฿7.5 kWh (฿8 kWh) = ฿371 ICE (MG ZS) ... 360 kms @ ฿36 per L = ฿1396 Cost over the life of the MG ZS EV warranty vs ICE (8 yr/180 kms): EV (MG ZS) ... 180k kms @ home w/solar -0- ... 180k kms @ home w/grid @ ฿5 kwh = ฿116k ... 180k kms @ MG SuperCharger @ ฿7.5 kWh (฿8 kWh) = ฿185.5k ICE (MG ZS) ... 180k kms @ ฿36 per L = ฿698k Cost over the life of LFP Battery (2500 cycles/900k kms) ???? EV (MG ZS) ... 900k kms @ home w/solar -0- ... 900k kms @ home w/grid @ ฿5 kwh = ฿580k ... 900k kms @ MG SuperCharger @ ฿7.5 kWh (฿8 kWh) = ฿927.5k ICE (MG ZS) ... 900k kms @ ฿36 per L = ฿3,490,000 If your ICE gets 20 kms per L =฿1,745,000 Someone want to tell me again, why owning an EV cost more. At 2500 cycles, the EV battery may still hold 80% capacity. Spend YOUR money on YOU, or give it to Big Oil... ... UP2U It's not rocket ... just simple math ???? https://zecar.com/resources/how-long-do-electric-car-batteries-last

If I lived in BKK or somewhere prone to constant flooding, I'd give serious thought to keeping an inexpensive ICE pick-up close by. I wouldn't drive m ZS ICE through floor board high water last time up at Future Park mall, and waited inside at restaurant till it subsided. Took about 1 hr. Amazed people drive through that, and actually surprised none stalled out. Would suck not having the option of not driving in bkk's flooded roads, or anywhere.

Smog protection, I would think.

Wish they would, (didn't read), state if the car fire was reported by the owner, or the police, after a 'stolen' car was found. 1500+ sounds extremely high. So do inspect your ICE for leaks. OK, did read it, (slight edit) and just another EV hit piece. ICE fires from crashes and poor maintenance, but the piece only talks about EVs. With higher number of ICE fires, you'd think it would discuss inspection of fuel lines for leaks.

Looks like TH on any given day after a nice rain. Seems they have the same water management problems.

Have you looked in the mirror lately ... is there a reason you're on Nana, assuming you have to P4P, and not just a people watching night out.

That blackened sky photo above, is from 'greenpeace' .... ... notorious for fake news ... nuff said Most negative photo I could find, and what most you are seeing, is steam. Which most eco warriors post, when trying to make something look bad. Not saying coal burning is good, but it is what it is ... not what fake photos show. But until TH goes all solar/hydro, you get what you get.

How to is quite easy ... cut the fuel, or cut the air. Didn't we learn that in high school ? again, it's not rocket science:

I guess you never heard of 'photoshop' https://www.google.com/maps/place/Mae+Moh+Power+Plant/@18.29415,99.7555909,3a,75y,90t/data=!3m8!1e2!3m6!1sAF1QipM4q5fBjSxRiAq9gg-URZvU8BoT7Br8fDKNUnjN!2e10!3e12!6shttps:%2F%2Flh5.googleusercontent.com%2Fp%2FAF1QipM4q5fBjSxRiAq9gg-URZvU8BoT7Br8fDKNUnjN%3Dw152-h86-k-no!7i1435!8i807!4m6!3m5!1s0x30d91a4107f2be7d:0xa6ae446b648ff034!8m2!3d18.29415!4d99.7555909!16s%2Fg%2F124yp1ct5

You better turn off all your electric appliances or move out of TH, as you wouldn't want to support that type of energy production. But please, keep polluting with you ICE, and hope you're not one to complain about the smog you generate. For clarification, 2 of the 4, are generators, to be added to the 10 generators already at Mae Moh, coal plant/mine area. The other 2, yet to be approved, or location decided on. Don't give them much hope of being built. But hey ... 4 new coal fired plants sounds better, for your spin. Troll On ...

CSs per EVs on the road, and TH is way ahead of most western countries, and most countries burn coal, so I guess you'll never own. TH's energy mostly comes from natural gas. Try again ... after you research, for a better excuse: Only a blind person can't find a CS in TH and hopefully, they aren't driving:
