  1. My post wasn't to you, and I wasn't referencing 2020 or 2021 prices, or even first, most of 10 months, of 2022, since we got our EV 30 Oct 2022. Nothing misleading, just your lack of reading comprehension. Or simply an attempt to interject a false narrative. Keep repeating it isn't going to help, as your posts are irrelevant, to our purchase or anyone's future purchase.
  2. Staggering how irrelevant your reply is to my reply.
  3. And we didn't buy our EV until later in 2022. My reply, again, is in reference to our ownership of our EV, and present & future savings, along with the person I replied to, future savings at today's price. It really seems reading comprehension is not a forte' of AN membership.
  4. And yet, I had an excellent Panaeng Moo & Somtam Thai, (80 & 60 baht) this evening, walking distance from hotel, with 6 others restaurants within 100 meters of that one. Tasty & a bargain. We did come through during covid, and it was a ghost town, as were most int'l tourist areas. Haven't popped down to the surf, although I've been in the Andaman in late Sept/Oct, and April/early May without issues. May is a bit rough though. We were here, Phuket, past June, and only the surfers were out.
  5. I don't have many vaccinated friends ... ????
  6. I don't control their transport decisions. If up to me, the countries, where possible, would be, or turning all solar, the last 30 ish years. Diesel would have been banned a long time ago. I can only control my little world. Hypocrisy - the practice of claiming to have moral standards or beliefs to which one's own behavior does not conform.
  7. You better keep that memory, since when it comes to production cars people can actually buy, EVs will beat ICEVs everyday when it comes to performance.
  8. My calculation was for when I own our EV, (35 ish & up) and for Celcius's future expense (who I replied to), but feel free to spin it anyway you think it will fit for your spin. Don't forget the 44.88 or so it hit last year. source
  9. I guess you're not concerned about performance, just noise ... ????
  10. I guess my Vios & Mazda 2 were gas hogs also, because they got the same, sometimes. And don't mention diesel, as I wouldn't buy anything the spews that disgusting, health hazardous exhaust. Shameful it's still legal to use.
  11. Staggering #s, but the #s don't lie. Now someone tell me again, how much more expensive EVs are ???? 14 kms per L/91 @ ฿40.5 baht today. 20k ÷ 14 kms = L X ฿40.5 = ฿57,857.14 X 8 yrs = ฿462,857
  12. Paying a bit more attention, too much actually, but noticed once over 85%, then it's about 1% added, every minute, then at 90%, that time increases, till about 95%. Then it's 2 minutes per %, till 98%, then it way too long, as the MG ZS stated, another 20 minutes till topped & cells balanced. Needless to say, we didn't wait.
  13. Just saw this vid, Dr Berg & sugar (keto advert in bad disguise), but, @1:20, states most folks in USA, eat 26 tsp of sugar a day ???? I now put 1 tsp in my coffee, and pretty much the only table/white sugar I use all day. Get some sugar in my blueberries & raisins, with my morning cereal. The corn flakes have about 1% of sugar, since 98.6 is supposed to be corn. Unless having pastry or ice cream during the day, I think that's about it for table/white or processed sugar.
  14. @Celsius If you put 20k kms on a year, we calculated we'll probably save over 460k baht, just on petrol cost, with our EV. That's an accurate cost of MG ZS ICE version (we owned), vs our EV version, we own now. Doesn't even include the oil changes (10k) & tune ups.
  15. Just one large advert, as all reachable from Phuket. I wouldn't make a special trip, or even if in the neighborhood, for any of them. We just drove by the turn to Phuket today, went to Khao Lak instead.
  16. I only follow the ones that are enforceable, with consequences greater than the benefit of not following. Or if chance of being caught. Of course I don't need rules to use common sense, or proper decency.
  17. You'd have to be an idiot, to run out of petrol or battery today. MG ZS EV gives an audio warning @ 30% & 20%, along with ding & idiot warning light. Don't know about 10%, as have only gone down to 12%. You should still have at least 65 kms to go @ 20%
  18. Haven't had COVID jabs or flu shots and can't remember when I was sick last time.
  19. Retired, and plan was simply to stop working. Done. No timetable/schedule, (not that I ever had one), and now, simply do what I want, when I want, how I want. Life is good. Felt like going O&A this we, so I went, with no real plan, We get back home, when we get there.
  20. That's a bit of a price difference; Neta V 549k MG4 769k now, but without few perks since price drop. One would hope for better specs for 220k more. Both very nice.
  21. that 'or' should be 'of' 'TH still has about 35% or primary forest'
  22. Tracking her partner's Gmap timeline ... ???? It wasn't me, a friend borrowed my phone
  23. I've seen plenty of storks, though not many varieties. Open Billed & Painted mostly. so many I can't even fit them into the shot
  24. Obviously you need to get far away from people & development. Even on trails, if worn, isn't going to have much wildlife...that you are going to notice or see. They're catching leopards & tigers at parks on cameras, and how many of them are in country. I see plenty of birds, and spotted otters while sitting riverside in busy areas, (KiriWong Village). Pretty sure I've seen mongoose or similar body (not otter) crossing road, and not in the wild, NaDi, Udon Thani. Seen more snakes than I want to, like yesterday, walking dog ???? I've actually seen peacock & pangolin out in the village areas, only one each, but really surprising. Go out in the more nature areas, and at night you'll hear the monkeys, orangutan howling or whatever they do. Lots of different animals out there that you hear & see, not like the ones on Soi 4, Soi 6, Soi Cowboy, Soi Patong or Bangla Rd
