  1. So you picked a side, the side of the US liberals propaganda machine.
  2. Didn't replace shocks as I had them replaced with genuine ones about 50K km before. I expect if shocks were bad that it would just be the opposite of what I experience. On an unevenness, the car is soft but it tends to jump a little
  3. That is a huge difference from the spec @KhunBENQ posted for the same car.
  4. Of course after replacing ball joints and steering rack, the tracking was adjusted again. The issue isn't that the car goes off track, but every unevenness in the road can be felt.
  5. I thought that was a public secret for years already
  6. Yes it is indeed sad when someone who is a wannabe expert and wannabe moderator, didn't get the humour sense implanted at his birth.
  7. Your wife also a martial arts expert? Man Burns Down House in Martial Dispute

    I can only guess that you are illiterate, since you are unable to read and comprehend a 3 line post, and with a chip on your shoulder. Try again, S L O W L Y this time. Let me know if I need to make a drawing for you to understand. Witnesses can be Amphur staff, and even if it needs to be non-staff members, witnesses can die before me. I am single and have no relatives.
  9. I just checked mine, and it says 35psi front, half and maximum load, and rear 35 HL and 41 ML. When I put 34psi front and rear, with the new cabin mounts and ball joints, it dances too much to my likening. The 34psi was fine before the renovation of my 14 year old truck, so maybe I'm a bit too sensitive and need to get used to it? Still leaves the question, where those 65 - 80psi numbers on those foreign websites come from, and how that could be considered drivable?
  10. Those numbers are far from the 60 and 80psi pressures reported in the links. In fact, I couldn't find anything on Google that mentioned 40 or lower. I believe you are owner of a pickup, so what pressure you put in your tires for a comfortable ride?
  11. This thread is not about what modifications they do to their pickups in Thailand. Stop trolling
  12. Have you seen that all those links are foreign websites? I doubt that in the US, or anywhere else in the world, 1 ton pickups drive around with 10 ton springs
  13. I have a pickup truck, the type everyone in Thailand has. Usually I put 34psi in my tires, but I recently replaced all ball joints - cabin mounts etc, so it was jumping a bit too much to my likening, and I lowered the pressure to 32psi. So I was curious what the recommended pressure is, started googling, and was flabbergasted by the results. https://www.souzastireservice.com/Tires-101/Air-Pressure 3/4 ton and 1 ton trucks and vans: Unlike cars, minivans, and lighter trucks that often specify low air pressure, the heavier trucks usually specify very high air pressure. A common air pressure for one these would be 55 front, 80 rear, or 75 front and rear, or like the example above, 50 front and 65 rear. https://www.forestriverforums.com/forums/f12/air-pressure-on-1-ton-diesel-207400.html Bought a used 1 ton diesel (see signature). The sticker says to run the rears at 80psi and the fronts at 60psi. Does that sound right for trailering to ya'll? I have a 1 ton dually long box 4x4. I haul a 35 ft 5er. When the 5er is on the truck I am at 80 psi all around including the trailer. When not hauling the tires on the truck go down to 50/55 psi. The ride on the truck is a bit better at the lower psi. My truck spare is at 80 all the time. https://www.pirate4x4.com/threads/tire-pressure-for-a-1-ton.73050/ For a D/E rated tire, 80 psi isn't out of the ordinary. For a rig that is used just for towing, I'd run max psi -5 lbs. I can only imagine how my pickup would be dancing over the road with those pressures. Anyone here owning a pickup or SUV who put those kinds of pressures in their tires?
  14. Shame they didn't include how many of those deaths were vaccinated, and how many died with Covid or from covid
  15. Glad you used the word "IF", as I presume you know properly stored beer, or anything else, is an oxymoron in Thailand

    Suppose you make a last will and register it at the Amphur. Obviously, you don't tell anyone, even the executor, that you made a will since you don't want to be worth more dead than alive. Then the final day arrives, how does anyone know you made a will?
  17. Think you will have a hard time finding any with a filling date less than 8 months
  18. Of course because Biden is working hard creating new voters, though I'm not confident if that will be enough. Biden to Grant Legal Status to Undocumented Spouses of US Citizens
  19. Yep just 1.7%. We aren't talking about the other day only, Buffett is selling BYD for a long time already, because he knows something isn't right, as with most Chinese companies. But of course, as a hardened EV fanboy it is difficult for you to face the truth, so deflection and denying the facts are your only resorts. https://www.asiafinancial.com/buffett-sells-25-8-million-more-byd-shares-stake-down-by-61 Warren Buffett-owned Berkshire Hathaway sold another $25.78 million worth of BYD shares last week, slashing its total stake in Chinese electric vehicle-maker by more than 61% since 2022. That’s down from a 20.49% stake Berkshire had in the carmaker’s H shares when it began selling off its holdings since late August 2022.
  20. Starlink obviously isn't less expensive than any isp in Thailand, or actually anywhere in the world. In fact, it may cost about 6 times what a Thai ISP charges for the equivalent. Maybe you should do some research before you post uneducated drivel in this and most other threads The reason why it will not be available in Thailand is for xenophobic reasons.
  21. So how did you book such a tour as a non-Chinese citizen, and why you would actually want to book it as someone who lives in Thailand?
  22. Reading the OP, i went out and bought a large bag of popcorn
  23. Let it go Lou, the new branch of Best is a disaster and an unattractive design, with very few customers. Who want to drive half way up Naklua road when there are many similar shops nearby? Yes those that live near the new branch may find it convenient. Best always been cheaper on booze, but I have visited 3 times already, and all booze is more expensive than any other shop, including friendship. Of course I didn't check every bottle of booze, but did the most common ones.
  24. Not the same by far. All-inclusive holidays the hotel in the holiday country receives the money, and no forced visits to factories owned by foreigners are included
  25. Wait a minute, didn't we hear the same story about 6 years ago? But yes they had the solution at that time, in confiscating what I think was ~1500 buses from the company that did the travelling, and a few weeks later the nephew of the then prime minister started a company that did exactly the same. The court case took several years to conclude, and no evidence of the claims was found, so the by then useless buses were returned to the by then bankrupt owner. I'm sure a Wai and an apology was offered for destroying a business
