Its usually a .......

Ok roll with me. This is something  I have noticed over time.

 

Picture the scene, there you are driving along a dual-carriage way or main highway. You move out to overtake a slower vehicle. You're not going crazy fast and in control.

A glance in the rear view mirror before moving back into the left lane reveals a vehicle approaching at warp factor 9, flashing what seems like the light from a 100 suns. The vehicle then sits 1 inch off your rear bumper until you move out of the way. Then speeds away leaving you in black smoke.

 

Later on the journey, you pull in for fuel or whatever at a service station, you spot said vehicle and see who is driving and the passengers. 

 

What is the vehicle that was being driven like that, and who could it be, I hear you ask?

 

The vehicle is usually a Ford Ranger, but no ordinary Ranger. No, the ranger has wheels and tyres so big and with so much tread they should be on a tractor, it's also got enough added lights to light up a small town and every other bolt-on accessory that you can find on Lazada.

 

Who could own such a vehicle? Usually an expat with a beer belly and a tiny Thai wife.

 

 

This is just one of many observations I have made. Stay tuned for more .

I was told that in Aus. Rangers are called clitoris trucks.

 

Apparently every cvnt has one.

Second observation,

 

Everest is another vehicle owned and driven mainly by expats, as mentioned already.

Another is the Fortuna and MU-X.

Popular modification to the Everest and Fortuna is the illuminated Everest or Fortuna badge on the back.

Some I have seen are a white light and not red. Of course, the only white lights that should be on the rear are the number plate and reverse lights.

I see most expats (tanned vs white tourist) on scooters, and usually without a helmet.  Or in the back of baht bus, or walking.

Fortunas are the worse, bar none.

Followed by the coal rolling modified pickups.
