  1. Complete Crock of Manure Do you own one - ever rode one - ?
  2. OK. Good price on the Mazda 2 Most likely your best bang for the buck would be install a turbo on what you have. A few shops in BKK who can design, build and install. Worth checking out what the cost would be. Good Luck
  3. And where do you think I live ? Anyway - I have had my say. Lead a Horse to water - type of thing
  4. If you provide a budget ceiling that would help with recommendations.
  5. Yup - with EV you see no smoke. Which is NOT the same thing as saying there IS no smoke.
  6. That has got to be one of the Fugliest bikes I have ever seen. Altho' the smaller Rebel is in the race too. Along with BMW - !!! 555
  7. 555 Think Marlon Brandos characters could be made with AI - On the Waterfront for just one example. Or Al Pacino in Scarface ? Or Clint Eastwood in the Spaghetti Westerns ? Or Dirty Harry - gonna have Elmer Fudd do "Did he fire 6 shots or only 5 ?" Some cartoon character can do nuance, innuendo, etc ?
  8. And what is to stop you doing the same and buying from a local store ? That argument holds no water. And why would you ask a clerk ? I ask the manager, the one that overseas the operation. Most all have been in business in their field for years. This experience - how do you duplicate it online ?
  9. Live in the CNX area. We ask the locals where is the best place for this or that. If not happy with their response I go to an outlet who supplies tradesmen. In any trade - building, electrical, automotive. They will know who the cowboys are and who does quality work. But this takes time and effort - something in short supply when people can just sit on their A-- and order via computer.
  10. If you do not support the local business, they will be gone. Along with their years of expertise, plentiful stock for purchase now, not in a week. Or keep shoving money in the pockets of big retailers. My guess is that online shopping is being driven by laziness.
  11. TPB Better subs here - https://subscene.com/subtitles/max-manus-man-of-war/english/2247981
  12. When I was a kid, bars had 2 entrances - Men Only and Ladies and Escorts. Bar was separated so that the men did not have to sit with the women if they so choose. No radio, no TV - just sit, smoke, and drink.
  13. When I was being treated for Hep C just one of the 2 pills a day cost the taxpayers over $1000 per day for 90 days. A full course of treatment, generics from India, exact same medication, was $200
  14. Every market here, many roadside food carts, gas stations even, 7-11, Lotus ... Should I go on ?
  15. Just a regular 60 day tourist visa - in 2005/6 That is what I was talking about, no fancy schmansy, HiSo, gold plated, OTHER kind of tourist visa - which AFAIK did not and does not exist.
  16. I never get speeding tickets from cameras. Google is your friend to find out how Those that do have the pictures and the fine notice sent via mail to the address in the blue book.
  17. I posted my experience. Your belief is not and was not required. And I opened a bank account on a tourist visa in my second year in Thailand. You either do not know how, or who to ask how.
  18. How much will I get from the Takata airbag settlement? A judge has approved a $52 million settlement is six class actions against car makers for allegedly selling cars fitted with deadly Takata airbags, under which individuals group members will get around $600 after $31.7 million in expenses is deducted.Aug 15, 2565 BE Lawyers get almost 32 million, members get 600 bucks - ain't justice Grand !!!
  19. Do you know how vehicle ownership is registered in Thailand ? Seems not - so I will clarify it again ... The blue book has the GF name as the vehicle owner, so ... She is the owner. No 'are you sure', receipts prove who PAID for the car, not who owns it, which brings us back to ... And yes, in this country, it is as 'easy' as that. Go to the DLT and ask them - who has their name in the book is the owner.
  20. Some people have an Ego which will not tolerate anyone disagreeing with them on any matter, no matter how small and/or trivial. They go on Ad Infinitum when the first challenge appears to what they say, what they do, what they think, ... I think their biological clock keeps on ticking, but the maturity one stopped when they were about 12 years old. So they pout, show Arrogance, belittle others, just to salve that black-and-blue bruised core of their Ego.
