No discount on any Benz it seems.

But really you want to buy these low cost poor quality chevrolet that even thai farmers do not want ?

Yes

Looking at a new Colorado for Thailand. Still may buy a used one from a friend of mine.

I am in the states right now selling my house in Florida but will return to Thailand in four weeks.

The house buyer is also taking my Silverado Z71.

"Dont be shy let the comment begin!"

My comment is "bird brain"

If car sales numbers are as bad as I have been reading, they may keep having endless promotions, one after the other, just like they do in the US when sales numbers are down. One expires, another one pops up.

I am going to check that link again after Dec 22 just to see what they do next. Very good promotions available for now on Chevrolets.

I like the way it sounds stock.

What does Bupkus mean? I don't think that is English. Is it Hungarian? Is the OP Hungarian?

Zero, zilch, nada

Chevrolet is showing their promotions on their website as ending December 22:

But I expect new promotions to follow once those expire.

Anyone know about shipping a PCX 150 to the USA? Customs...taxes...EPA? Shipping company? Any ideas?

According to the Honda US website, the PCX 150 is already available, along with the Forza 300, in the USA.

$3499 for the PCX 150.

So they likely got their retirement visas, or extension of stay, while in Thailand. I hadn't thought of that possibility. Thanks Ubonjoe.

He said they got their retirement visas last February 2013. Would they not be OK with their current visas until Feb 2015 without filing for an extension of stay, as long as they re-enter before late Feb 2014?

I am assuming that their so-called retirement visa is in reality an O-A visa instead of an O-visa as was stated in the OP.

I installed both Garmin City Navigator NT Thailand 2013.30 and Garmin City Navigator Southeast Asia NT 2013.20 in Mapsource recently. There are some problems with both of these. The Garmin City Navigator NT Thailand 2013.30 is dual language Thai & English, however in Mapsource most labels are in Thai. Some have Thai and English, many do not. That is no problem for those of you who read Thai, but not so great for me.

The Garmin City Navigator Southeast Asia NT 2013.20 is a big step backwards from the Garmin Street Map series. This new version shows much less detail than before and some of it is just plain wrong. I don't see rivers and streams or smaller sois. Estuary shorelines are often missing or in the wrong place. If I were to work with it longer, I'm sure to find many other defects.

So, for me, I'm going to stick with the older version Thailand Street Map 2012.40.

It must depend on which version you install. My Garmin City Navigator NT Thailand 2013.30 has both English and Thai. When it is in English, there are no Thai labels at all on my 255W. I just checked it again to be sure. I don't have a way to bring it up in the Mapsource program, however in the Basecamp program, it also shows up in English.

I did another check and I cannot get the map to show any Thai labels at all. I remember the first version I installed would only show Thai. That does me no good. I found a so-called dual version which seems to only show English labels. That works for me.

Interesting article on Wikipedia about the XR750. They say:

"Riders on XR-750s have won 29 of the 37 AMA Grand National Championships from 1972 to 2008 inclusive. Besides having more wins than any other bike in AMA racing, it has been called the "most successful race bike of all time."

Also, notice in the XR-750 pictures that the bike has no brakes! That's how they ran them in the AMA Grand National series.

Forget about the XR(TT) models over the years?

Anybody seen any IPA beers for sale in NE Thailand? IPA = India Pale Ale. They are very popular in the US now.

I have owned two Aprilias in the last few years. Excellent bikes. The bike in my avatar is an Aprilia. Too bad they are unavailable so far in Thailand. I'd love to have another.

Some people think that the fastest is always the best. I disagree.

I have a Keeway. Lifans and Keeways are OK bikes. I could not say they are better than a Phantom though.

Does the version sold in Thailand also include ABS?

The SH150 that was sold in the US was made in Italy.

Supermoto style, monoshock rear end, led tail light, oil cooler, upside-down forks. Handles well. The riding position is great. I don't like leaning over forward like on the CBR. The CRF has a very skinny seat that looks like it wouldn't be comfortable for very long and is over twice the price of the TXM200. Incredibly easy valve adjustment. I do my own service. I've had nearly 40 different motorcycles in my day and at least half of those were Kawasakis. You can't beat the price on the Keeways for the quality of the bike that you get. Lot's of Chinese bike haters on the forum but the people that actually own the Keeways haven't complained about the bikes.

I have the TXM200 Keeway. It has given me no problems and the seat is very comfortable. Only paid 62K new.

A friend let me test ride his new CB1100 while in the US. Excellent machine! Too bad not available in Thailand. I like it very much.

Here are some pictures of his big brother. I think he looks much nicer.
