Re: Electric Vehicles (EV) Thread

Re: Electric Vehicles (EV) Thread

I know it’s boring to repeat myself, but EVs are garbage. The market for them has fallen off a cliff in the UK. Expensive to buy (unless you buy a Chinese sh*tbox), massive depreciation, high maintenance costs, high insurance, minimal range, fire risks when charging, excessive weight, battery degrad...

Re: Locations that serve a "good" Amercian / English breakfast.

My favorite is Morning Bread opposite G Hua Hin Hotel on Soi 94. They bake their own fresh bread, and open at 7.00. But this morning I had a buffet breakfast at G Hua Hin, they just started to offer it. I have had buffets in all major hotels in Hua Hin, and G is the cheapest, under 500, and has goo...
