The visa is not the problem, but all restrictions that Thailand has, such as not allowed to do anything, even volunteer work without a workpermit, alcohol sales and buying hours, double standards for foreigners, seeing foreigners as criminals, with 90 days reports, address notifications etc, and the list can go on. That is what keep foreigners away to retire here. You have the feeling you live here, spend your money here, but nothing else is allowed...and many retirees are not looking for that anymore
Now carrying your own shower cap as an occasional M/C taxi user is not a bad idea. Doubles up as an alternative to carrying an umbrella for the odd rain shower too.
