funcat Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 Your truck is pretty cool. How is it cool ? I'm not having a go, I just want to understand the mentality. For example, why the huge 4x4 graphics on the sides ?? I probably thought that was cool when I was 5 years old... totster If someone has to explain it to you then you will never understand. I like modifying stuff. Take something that everyone has and making it different, and in this case, raising it up, big wheels and making it...cool. All my cars and bikes are modified and probably not to everyones taste....but thats the point. If I wanted to be a sheep, I'd have a Vios. I thing,that all the modifications are made to the person satisfaction.....but you can double your pleasure,if somebody(or everybody) will come to you and say:"...gee,man....that looks really COOL !!!..." ...and one can make a Vios looking COOL as well,by 'wraping' it nicely,ad some spoilers,nice wheels and...lowering it...

WarpSpeed Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 Little bit different but similar process I guess, I never thought of using the insurance agent and they never offered the service. The inspection station we used (which is usually just a specialized garage BTW) was just up the road from us, is your car older then 5 years? It will be next year, in any case the vehicles (he does the 2 motorbikes to) are not needed to be present totster Yeah see, that's what I'm talking about...

WarpSpeed Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 (edited) ^^^ No need to actually show up to the registration office when using an agent be it insurance or whatever?

Showbags Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 How much do these agents charge for this service and is it worth it if you have a normal car straight out of its 5 year bracket, so first inspection and nothing wrong with it ?

You have to use one for inspection regardless once the car is 5 years old.. It's only a few hundred baht just for inspection if you're selling, buying or transferring it's a thousand baht or so including tax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, I stand corrected (or sit in this case) I wasn't certain if it was 5 or 7, it seems some confusion on that front IMHO?.. Like I said though just a few hundred for inspection alone..

I'd love to a see a rear shot with a drop down prop ... As I recall it had an a portable long shaft and 4 banger motor combo in the bed on rails, just lower the tail gate, slide it out, throw the cooling hose over board and there it was. If the tires could touch in some places they just kept it moving fast enough and the pontoons kept it from going under. Pretty clever honestly, not worth it for a 2 day flood but for weeks on end like that was, they got their use out of it..
