Those banded hornets pack a punch. Wife got sting 5 years ago and still has a scar from it. Wish i could walk our garden but im deathly allergic to bee stings. Oh well really enjoy the videos and congrats on the new SUV.

[@ParadiseNThailand]

We have plenty of wasps, hornets, and bees flying around here. Fortunately no one has gotten stung yet. Thanks for watching.

[@iandespy9670]

When it comes to buying a car, always go for the bigger engine. It's just the man thing to do!

[@ParadiseNThailand]

Good advise!

[@SurinLeiningen]

I even got counterfeit dental floss online. Oh well 😂

[@ParadiseNThailand]

Lol, never heard that one before.

[@ronjon5241]

Ok…brother..good stuff…..thanks. 3.0 way to go….:-))

[@ParadiseNThailand]

Thanks RJ

[@terry269]

i never did like getting rid of a good vehicle for something i didn't know anything about ,i think you made a good decision keeping the truck.

[@ParadiseNThailand]

That we kind of the final reasoning, knowing I would replace it, and buying a beater truck that I would likely have to replace again in5-10 years. This one should last until I die.

[@Michael-u5o4q]

Thanks for another great video. The good thing with buying an isuzu is they are manufactured in Thailand. This is possibly why the dealers have limited inventory shiping would be overnight or next day to most parts of Thai land. Unlike waiting for a new isusu ute order to be shipped to Australia😢. 3L is pretty much the standard here.

[@ParadiseNThailand]

They are telling us the vehicle is not manufactured yet but should have it before the end of next month. Pretty sure I'll be better off with the 3L although I will never know the difference now.

[@thaitheo]

​@@ParadiseNThailand The 3 liter 4WD Isuzu MUX is manufactured in Japan. That is the reason that it takes a little longer normally before you can get it. We have chosen it over the Fortuner because I wasn't able to sit normal in the last row of it, which isn't any problem with the Isuzu MUX. Be glad that you are not trying to get a test drive in a Toyota Camry. We visited many Toyota dealers and none of them had 1 available for a test drive. Very happy with the Isuzu MUX. So far only replaced the battery in the last 3 years (115000km) and it got all it regular maintenance. Get some protectors to cover the paint job of the entrance of the doors. The paint isn't very thick there and wears off fast.

[@ParadiseNThailand]

@@thaitheo I'll see if I can find some door edge trim on Lazada.

[@Gotmybeeroverhere]

We run the Mu-x 3.0 great for long road trips. Asked my missus why folk buy the 1.9, she said with its added fuel economy its good if you are just going to be posing aound town. Have you asked for a manual in English

[@ParadiseNThailand]

@@Gotmybeeroverhere no, but I will now! I was told the 3.0 can be as high as 12 k/l. Is that good? I have no idea.

[@martinzacek3434]

Good decision on the SUV, sure better than the Fortuner. The Fortuner are to tight inside, due to the short distance between front and rear axle, they are jumpy, just bad driving. You should have checked the Everest. The Ford's have currently the best suspension ...drives very comfortable but still allows a more sporty style. Regarding tax, it should be 20Mill Thb you can gift to each family member 😉 what is excepted from taxable income. Then everything you spend with credit card or ATM.

[@ParadiseNThailand]

Hey Martin, Never been a Ford fan, always a Toyota. I drove my bro-law's 2019 MU-X and liked it so that is why it was my 2nd choice. As far as tax laws, I have no idea other than this guy: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gV6VpHSde7OajKc

[@KillerkoUK]

Glad you figured that sd cards out and got a real v30 card... best way to distinquish the fakes is price... if they are too cheap you know why ;)

[@ParadiseNThailand]

Live and learn. Now I know. Thanks KKUK

[@johnnysiam-007]

Hope the sager works out

Cross my fingers.

[@gavinrcolpitts1988]

Congratulations on the new Isuzu, I would prefer the bigger engine aswell..................................Interested to know how many kilometres are on your Toyota Hilux ?

[@ParadiseNThailand]

Thanks Gavin, 2018 with 145k

[@gavinrcolpitts1988]

@@ParadiseNThailand cheers Kenny, we have a 2017 Hilux Pre-runner up here in Chiang Rai, we bought it new, 2.4L diesel with auto, has been a fantastic car...............................if you can afford to keep your pick-up I think would be a better option than buying a cheaper pick-up with the repairs that will follow

[@unclecraigbaannawk]

My wife had a Hyundai Tuscon...it looks like the MUX...and now that you have a 3.0 you'll be paying that premium annual tax and reg...probably around 5k...hey you should have upgraded your rims and tires too...unless the new model does that in the package...

[@ParadiseNThailand]

Did not know anything about the premium tax until we ordered it. More than doubled.

[@darylmcgee4349]

Yes you can eat the flowers Dok-Care is the best i can pronounce :)

[@ParadiseNThailand]

I'll ask Sompit how it is pronounced, thanks

[@Roger_Rademakers_1971]

$1200 for the engine upgrade is cheap ! From 1.9 4cyl Diesel too 3.0 4cyl Diesel !!

[@ParadiseNThailand]

Yes, $1197

[@unclecraigbaannawk]

There is a 'blue book' online for Thailand that gives you and official price document you can present to a dealer...

[@ParadiseNThailand]

I was wondering if they had that here. Not that I need it now, but do you recall what it is called?

[@unclecraigbaannawk]

@@ParadiseNThailand I used RedBook Thailand, the certificate costs 100baht and they email it to you...I also see that ttb bank bluebook now also has a price index online...

[@CGarajarn]

Did I miss the price on the Isuzu? I’m thinking about $1.5m?

[@ParadiseNThailand]

With the larger motor, 1.41

[@StevenCasper]

Glad you sorted out the SD card issue. Nice photos especially liked the wasp in hover under the leaf. I actually liked all of them. Keep having fun.

[@ParadiseNThailand]

Thanks Steven, The kingfisher was out of focus, but it was a long lens a from quite a distance. Will try to get that one again. I will continue to drop a couple in videos as I get them.

[@AmericanInThailand]

Temple? Sitting on the floor? What are these strange things you speak of?

[@ParadiseNThailand]

lol, I know, right!

[@RikkieBkk]

you can change your limit in a Bangkok bank there no need to go to Bangkok its just about the face recognition my account is from bkk and i changed the limit in Satuek when i had to pay for the land i bought it takes 24 hours to do that then you can change the limits yourself. to make it more easy take your bankbook.

[@ParadiseNThailand]

we have it now. They had a five day wait after the change (of more than 100K). With ordering the car we will have plenty of time. Will close that account after this purchase.

[@unclecraigbaannawk]

I just get my cards from the Big Camera here after some card fails....and you can send cards back to Lazada I think...

[@ParadiseNThailand]

I will look to see if there is a Big Camera in this area.

[@terranceyeo3087]

hi guys still haveing problems with the cards

[@ParadiseNThailand]

No, ordered directly from Sandisk and all 5 cameras are working now.

[@unclecraigbaannawk]

we went into Bangkok bank and moved the 400k from my wifes to my account when we first opened it..

[@ParadiseNThailand]

Yes, we moved everything out and into my account after I got it set up. I did it this time to avoid the tax liability bringing foreign funds in country....if there is one.

[@darylmcgee4349]

Lamun has said that If you want some big & juicy Khatom then pop in and grab some. You said Sompit knows Nong-Lang.

[@ParadiseNThailand]

Is Nong Lang in Nakhon Ratchasima?

South Eastern side I should add

[@ParadiseNThailand]

@@darylmcgee4349 Ok, I think I found it on Goggle Maps. Or at least a temple that says Nong Leng, on the SE side of the lake. We might do that if you are around next week.

[@HairyPixels]

LOL you can buy a house for the same price as that Fortuner. How many people have you seen living in total dumps but with a nice car. That explains it I guess.

[@ParadiseNThailand]

LOL, never thought about it that way, but true!

[@LWPowers]

Rookie mistakes. Always buy new cars and sell old cars within Bangkok. It is a much busier and more competitive market. If you buy new, the annual auto expo in BKK in December has the best warranty, accessory and options negotiation ability.

[@ParadiseNThailand]

...and now we know.

[@RichardLewis-fl9mp]

I can change my limits online, I use Bangkok Bank also. Don't understand having to go to branch to do.

[@ParadiseNThailand]

You are correct. At the time of this recording, I needed to move it "today" and when trying to change to anything over 100k, I got a message saying to visit a branch to make the change over 100k. Now, I know I can change it but need to wait 5 days for change to take effect. Now that we have ordered one, we have time to work it out. Thanks

[@Andrewp696]

You can change the banking limits using your mobile banking app. You can change transfer limits, ATM limits, etc very quickly.

[@peterward9755]

Maybe Toyota do that because the car was made 2 years ago but hasn’t been sold yet so basically it’s not a brand new car the plate o my fortuner was only a week old

[@ParadiseNThailand]

@peterward9755 2024 with 99km, but they had the car and would not honor the add price on FB....and we called the night before asking specifically about the ad on FB. Don't blame Toyota, it's the dealership, imo

[@waynehayes147]

Hello Kenny, unfortunately can’t trust most of the shit on Lazada or Shopee, majority of the listings are deceiving, knockoffs or plain junk. But the only game in town.

[@ParadiseNThailand]

I knew there were fakes, but didn't realize how many there were. Sandisk, Samsung, and Lexar are the three I purchased on Lazada but would not work.

[@waynehayes147]

@@ParadiseNThailand Don’t know if you use a money transfer site but be careful on making fast multiple transfers to build the account up, when I sent money to buy land and build house was limited to 50,000 also so was making multiple transfers to have the money ready Wise, Remitly and EX locked me out for suspicious activity on my account.

[@JensMichaelCramer]

Transfer money to Thailand right now for a car? Thai bath is over rated a lot now and even more because of the US dollar interest cut the other day. Thailand national bank says thai economy is super so no reason to cut their interest rate. I guess both is a "lie" so soon they will have to get into reality.....or?

[@ParadiseNThailand]

Transferred it a while back, just hadn't taken the time to mess with it as I had not went shopping.

@@ParadiseNThailand Great.....thai bath currency is a mystery to me.....seems free of rational considerations. Anyway you have a great Hilux, why not just keep this? Perhaps you want two cars? How about getting solar panels and a EV?
