  1. Might want to wait for the Xiaomi SU7 Ultra to be available where you are. Sub 2 seconds to 100 kph, (not a possible sub 4 sec) and Xiaomi about the same dimensions of the GR GT, probably half the price though, if Toyota even brings it to market. And Xiaomi SU7 cost way less to operate & maintain.
  2. I'm not having sex with it. It's a machine that gets me from point A to B. And if in need to punch it, and get some power out of it, which does bring a smile to my face, then it's an EV for sure, and a better price point. ICEV simply can't compete any more on any level ... IMHO After my experiences & owning both I think CN has it down to a science now, and why I held off buying EV, aside from silly priced before 2022. LFP battery chemistry will be the standard for quite sometime. 5 - 8 - 10 yr / lifetime warranties now available for some make & models. Again, ICEV falling behind. Safety ... that's funny, as Toyota got caught submitting non production vehicles for better safety test ratings, than what comes off the line. Won't mention their recall because tires were falling off. VW had huge scandal, and had to recall, buy back 1000s of vehicles for decade false emission data, violating EPA standards in USA. Feel free to trust them, I don't or any manufacturer. So far, MG has been spot on with their info, if anything, better than their info supplied, WLTP range for instance, we get average 350 kms vs 320 kms, info they supplied.
  3. Had a buddy of mine, never owned a car or MC, him or wife. Always blew my mind. Moved from city to suburbia, and still never had one. Everything needed was in walking distance, and it is a major monthly expense, no matter how thrifty you try to be. Presently don't need a car, and probably never did, but can't imagine life without it. Don't even need a MC now, but wouldn't be without one, if not having a car. Udon Thani, living out of town, so at least a MC was mandatory, due to school commute. Car more realistic, due to rainy season. USA, very thrifty, with 1 exception, always 2nd hand and keep till they die or kill /crash 'em 🙄 TH, all new, as 2nd hand are a bit silly priced, but still thrifty till last 2, and far from luxury or expensive. But cost, buy in, petrol & insurance does add up for most folks, especially locals with limited funds.

  5. Just cutting through the red tape. If anyone has a problem, that's what the courts (see below) are for per wiki ... from G - AI ...
  6. Because it's once again, a silly priced, under performing (sub 4 🙄) car from Toyota, that may be available sometime in the future. What they do, to keep future customers from buying now, what China offers, for less, and performs better .... now. Thought that was pretty obvious. CN now making high performance cars Toyota can't complete with. Always around the corner with Toyota ... ... solid state battery ... hydrogen cars ... ICE performance car now Still waiting, and what's available now, overpriced under performers. Before anyone goes to the dealer, peek at the specs; dimensions, hp, torque, 0-100 kph (if wanting fast), warranties. Price for value before wasting your time at dealers. $250k ... seriously, does that interest you
  7. Midterms will be interesting ... https://www.facebook.com/reel/795009489857977
  8. Not the USA .... BUT ... just an example how 'legal' asylum seekers, may or may not contribute to society once allowed in. Do consider these were 'legal' asylum seekers. Now on topic, consider all the illegal asylum seekers, that are now being weeded out, with enforcement of the rules, before they enter the country. A good thing. Doesn't even consider the 'illegal aliens' that entered 'illegally', into the USA, showing they already have no respect for the law. What could possibly go wrong there ???

  10. Does look nice, but, concept car, maybe available 2028, and probably an overpriced under performer Considering the prices for these current, available, under performers, the MG Cyberster is looking like a bargain, and available now @ 2.5M w/ that lifetime battery warranty Sorry, couldn't help myself ... 🙄
  11. You shouldn't take any bets on the 10 yr crap out thought, as brother just turned 78 on the 7th Mother made it to 74, and stone Alky & chain smoker. Her nephew, my cousin, 85 😎

    Me, short lived, and not even close enough time to have any brain damage, though people that know me, would surely disagree
  15. Some notables, some who denied knowing Epstein in the past ... Alec Baldwin: Actor Name found in Epstein’s black book. Baldwin has denied knowing Epstein. Here is the proof you need, that confirms everyone knowing Epstein, was a sexual deviate Stephen Hawking: Physicist In 2006, the world’s most famous brain visited Little St. James, Epstein’s private island, which came to be known as “Pedophile Island.” Hawking, who was in the Caribbean for a conference, was photographed at a barbecue on the island and aboard a submarine for a tour. According to the Telegraph, “Epstein is said to have paid for the submarine to be modified for Professor Hawking, who had never been underwater before.” Ted Kennedy: U.S. senator Name and home phone number found in Epstein’s black book. Pretty much a who's who list of politicians, entertainers, financial big wigs and anyone, everyone in financial circles with too many zeros in the net worth. Proof of absolutely F'g nothing So nobody thinks I'm bias, half the Trump family get mentioned.

    You'll have an excuse for cranial MRIs for years to come Future postings .... ... 'They lied to me again' - I must have Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE)' How much are MRIs in Thailand ? I use that excuse all the time, from the years in the ring, works a treat
  17. I set my cruise control at 101 in the 120 kph lane, just to practice my lip reading skills
  18. OMG ... it's true By end of next week, we should be the new 'Beachfront tambon' Rising seas = Rising home value ...
  19. With a selective service draft lottery # of 354 out of 365 , you do realize, he didn't need anything to avoid being drafted into a fake war, only an idiot would volunteer for. He wasn't getting drafted no matter. Which brings into doubt, the story of someone spewing BS on the internet about any examination he may or may not have had, or deferment, he certainly didn't need. Do try to think for yourself He didn't need to try to avoid a draft, he wasn't even considered for. I have a lot more respect for the intelligence of people that didn't want to serve in the US military after WW II. For the record, I enlisted in the US Army, 1976. Though old enough during the Nam War, they discontinued the draft before it ended, so no need for me to holiday in Canada, if having a low draft #.
  20. Spec'd & priced just about right for the niche market. Want to play in style, got to pay in like style
  21. Nothing bought pre 2023 is holding much value since price war hit. We got a decent price for our 2020 MG ZS (ICE) in 2022 considering a buyer's market, during covid, and living in smalls-ville (<26k population), and being an impatient seller, not really needing money. Knowing selling after only 2 yrs owning isn't be best financial decision. Price war devalued our 2022 MG ZS EV, not that it matters, as we'll keep it till it dies, more like, we die first. Bit of a wash, as if keeping the ICE version, would have loss about 200k on resale, along with paying 150k for petrol to operate it. So almost a break even, if adding depreciation for 3 yrs owning now. Can't see it's replacement, MG S5 (ZS EV discontinued), having the same depreciation, as already silly low priced @ 620k at times. Agree MG3 was crap, and reincarnated as HEV, so should do well, for those wanting inexpensive transport. MG5, equal to entry level JP badged crap. Rest of MG line up at good price point, and very competitive, and should do well onward, as price war is winding down IMHO Maybe a pick up truck price war, as the EV versions start getting launched. Right now just the RD6 is only real value on the market, and may dominate for a while. Just like the MG ZS & EP did, till BYD showed up. Competition is a beautiful thing I understand the 'opinions' of the non BEV owners, as the ignorance & brainwashing from fossil fuel has blinded them from even peeking at or test driving. Until they do, they really shouldn't comment of BEV, as simply showing that ignorance. Even more so when commenting on 'my choices' as the companies offer more than just BEV, as I stated earlier. If not looking for a truck, then suggest anyone to go peek at & test drive the MG S5 for instance, or any BYD or other that I suggested, then go test drive one of those Isuzu/Toyota brands/and maybe Mitsubishi at the same price point .... then get back to us. Then your opinion may hold some weight ... until the ...
