It has to have 4- doors and be under a mill, yes?

No, it can be a smart cab.

The amount of rebate is included in the last column.

Am l right you cannot get the 100,000 with a truck ?

According to that link you are right. Looks like the highest rebate is 20,000 baht.

Thought so, but we could we wrong eh.

We are out there. All of you, just ask. This is LOS, not farangland.

Will you clean my car, cut the grass and take the dog for a walk, please?

Of course. Will get the accountant on it pronto. .................

"Tuesday 2nd October on the year of our Lord 2012"

So is that this week, or some fictional date you just made up?

Sounds like a Jehovah Witness thing to me.

With transmission/power steering oil/fluid the colour of it is a tell tale of a problem or needs changing, with engine oil it's a bit different. When you change the oil it will probably ''look'' dirty after a few Km.

Reason being not all the oil is drained as stuff remains in pockets internally, also oil that grips/sticks to metal surfaces will not drain, so this old oil mixes with the new and discolours it. Only way to get ''near'' clean internals is to use a flushing oil first.

Where possible drain old oil hot, when it is at it's thinest.

Forgot before, it is advisable to change oil after 6 months regardless of mileage..

Yes, that's always what confuses me and I think that's what the OP is getting at. I only drive around 10,000km per year, yet when I pay for synthetic oil, Honda always recommend that it's good for 10,000km or 6 months, whichever comes first. It seems like a waste changing when I've only driven 5,000km - is it really necessary? As the OP is asking, would it better to choose the oil that will last for the distance you plan to drive in 6 months? 4 liters of mineral oil costs between 1/4 and 1/3 of the price of 4 liters of synthetic.

That was not my original point, but it is a good one. No one that drives less then 5,000 km in 6 months should be using synthetic motor oil. It's just a waste. My question was about the "grades" of mineral motor oil and is there really any difference among them. But, since I drive about 5,000 km every 6 months, I would never go to the 7,000 grade of oil (assuming it is designed to last longer than the 5,000 km grade), because I would be changing my motor oil at 5,000 km in any event when the 6 month period after the last oil change has expired.

In your case as you say, synthetic would be a waste of cash. My truck doesn't get much use so from new after run in l used synthetic a few times to get the metal ''impregnated'' with the stuff then changed to semi to keep up the protection. These are MY thoughts on stuff, folk might disagree.

Many low stressed (rpm) engines don't need or gain from synthetic, but which ones .

Soooooo, l stay on the safe side. Shell Helix do a basic mineral oil for turbo diesels to do the job for 5000km or the six months.

was at isuzu yesterday. They said a15000baht price increase before years end.....Maybe this was to make me make a quick decision.

Do they make anything to replace the x series?...

The Gov rebate will have finished by then, so they can up their price after that.

Currently they are keeping the price on the ISUZU X under the million TB999,000. So as people can get TB100,000 back in 12 Mts, if they purchase in their wife name. Government Rebate not available for Foreigners.

Didn't think the rebate could be had with any truck.

3 years but the building upright pads must be on natural compacted earth.

I was taught that if I haven't got something decent to say I should keep my mouth shout. Whilst not always applicable I follow that advice on threads which family members of the deceased may come across.

I was told to shut it, but you can shout if you like, we can't hear you.

Mods... are you going to get on top of the religious hatred being exhibted on this forum or not.... It has come to the attention of some of my Thai colleagues, they are less than impressed, don't say I didn't warn you.

A certain religious group that you seem affiliated too is killing ''anybody' world wide.

Those with half a brain cell, including me, do not understand planed killing of folk of any religion, including their own.

WHY.

YOU explain and tell us why the leaders of the religion do not stop the indiscriminate slaughter of kids. The dead kids have noooooooooooo use of virgins up there.

It makes me wonder where these people are hanging out that have such a low opinion of Thais. Sure, they have their brain-dead soap operas too, but there are plenty of talented and accomplished people here too.

, please reveal all.

The OP must be up to his eyes in tears and soap suds at the continuation of his topic. Even though he is in a submarine somewhere out there.

Have you got Hitlers mobile number handy ? If so l will ask him what happened.

The lad just bought a bike. 67,000bht for cash. He bought it over three years.

With deposit, 105,000 bht.

And over that 3 years would he have spent 38k (say 1000b p/m) on transport?

If so, he made the intelligent decision.

Noooooooooooooo, his mum/me would take car of his ride.

Lots of adverts stating clearly Interest 4% up to 5.4%....... No down and only X,XXX per month for 36 months, likewise cars and Trucks No Down and only X,XXX for 60 months...... + on something that can be 10 - 20 years old.

Many that buy this way cannot meet the terms of Honda main dealer [from 0.79%], so must pay much more Interest as there classed as high risk.. No history, Bad history.

Indeed.

And I think a massive problem is that financing encourages people to spend way beyond their means. They get themselves n this circle of debt from which they may be trapped in for years and years. Having a shiny new Click might make one feel good for a couple of weeks, but living week in week out, just keeping your neck above water paying bills, can means years of misery.

No wonder we see so many bikes being taken away several months after they have been delivered. The feel good factor of having a new shiny bike and then struggling to pay and then losing it in a few months, leading to a presumably bad credit rating and possibly higher interest rates in the future. This is no way to have to live / struggle.

Indeed.

Comes down to basic personal money management, and i'm afraid, that is something that doesn't tend to get taught in schools and so unless parents really push home to their kids about self sufficiency and about spending within means, it is all to easy to do what it seems everyone else is doing, and go out and have yourself the newest phone or the latest motorbike or a new car, and end up up your neck in debt. I've met people who take on repayments that are up to 80 to 90% of their monthly salary. This is just crazy.

Like l said, it is toooooooooo easy, and grand ma and pa put their land on the line.

This happens cos of a very lax hire purchase system here. Anyone can virtually buy anything that they cannot afford.

we all know what needs to be done !!

but the political correct stand in our way,

thus more inocent people will die..

The problem of the military being judge, jury and executioner is that they will inevitably be killing innocents themselves as they don't always get their man.

Extrajudicial killings will only lead to the settling of scores, elimination of rivals and little else.

The only way to end this is a settlement that includes the support of the majority community.

Targeting family markets is NOT a military target.

I would suggest you are the trouble maker here trying to stir up trouble by bring up this pathetic religious nonsense.

We are talking about the scum who attacked innocent people. If they happen to be a majority of one religion then so be it – but take them out permanently.

Oh, and if you “Thai friends” are so unimpressed (?) then please ask them to post and not hide behind you.

How right you are. No excuse for killing indiscriminately, what ever the cause.

I try to wonder what these cowards think after they have shredded children who were brought up with the cowards own beliefs. .

Ever heard of air conditioning?

not that soft, yet.

You look soft in your photo.

Out of very polite curiosity, what's the appeal of a Thai bride?

They are available locally.

Wish l could stay on topic too. ..............

They have many Snooker Halls so l am OK. ................

Why not go to a Uni/school gym and try their stuff to see what your happy with weight wise and

apparatus wise. I go to one a couple of times a week at 50bht a shot and they have everything.

I personally would find it difficult to get motivated to ''go for it'' if l was alone at home, plus in a gym you can learn stuff by watching, but not from the farang guy who turned up Friday though, who tried to impress the Thai kids on a bench press machine, too much weight and a 2 inch drop and raise with a lot of noise .

I am in my seventh decade now, eat once a day and brought back the size of muscles and more that l have neglected, admitted l have had a 30 year lay off.

Dang, where I live (Oregon, USA) walking into a personal residence without permission is called home invasion and carries the death penalty from me - literally. I am allowed to shoot to kill anyone who's in my home without permission. That's not saying I would or have, but legally I could. I also have a concealed firearms license (Yes you Brits, we spell it "license," LOL) and I carry 24/7.

Again, I'm not at all likely to shoot someone but would much more likely tell them to leave and see what they do, but the point is that's how seriously that act is taken here.

I haven't had that happen when I'm in Thailand, but I would feel disrespected and speak accordingly.

Did anyone mention perhaps simply putting a latch on the screen door?

i am always curious why people need to say "dang, where i live" or "in my country", or "back home" etc.

fact is, you aren't in kansas, or berlin, or oslo, or manchester

y'all gave up the right to compare, but i reckon if your wife were offended, it would stop happening.

I haven't given up any rights to use my mind. I'll be in Thailand again in a couple of months, planning on retiring there next year. Maybe if I keep hearing enough crap I'll change my mind. I don't have it so bad right here on my hilltop.

Is that a private hospital or government ?

I am old and have a sexy GF and I wash her clothes in my new Pansonic clothes washer. I tried doing them by hand but the washer does a better job. She is an engineer so sometimes she gets her clothes dirty and the washer does a good job.

Wow, what does she charge for a Vigo oil change ? ......
