So there were at least 2 + 5 + 12 = 19 people on one pickup truck. This definitely is calling for a disaster. Condolences to the families.

Spot on. That is exactly what I was thinking. It doesn't mention what kind of pick up it was though?

RIP for the dead people, but about the pick-up, it good be worser, in the surrounding I living, often I see a pick-up with a trailer connected, so at least 25 constructionworkers together. Its unbelievable but true.

Well, then you make a good decision, coincidently, last week I order a Fortuner, but have to wait 4 month's. Where in Kaeng krachan do you stay, it's a beautiful and quiet surrounding, however there also tourist areas, so it depending where you stay.

Hello,

Before, I owns a Ford Escape, bought this in Phuket, where the service was ok, but I moved, the same as you, to the Keng Krachan area, and bring the car for service and maintenance to Ford in Hua-hin and later to Petchaburi. My experiance by both was very bad. Very high prices and bad service. One of the reason for don't buying a Ford anymore.

With regards,

Peter.

Seems like the worlds largest concrete pump is on it's way to Japan...

The pump was moved Wednesday from the construction site in Aiken County to a facility in Hanahan, S.C., for minor modifications, and will be trucked to Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport, where it will be picked up by the world's largest cargo plane, the Russian-made Antonov 225, which will fly it to Tokyo.

I thought this also had to be a Aprils fool joke
noting the pump makers name Putzmiester.... ?????

Putz in yiddish is
'(American Jewish), jerk, fool, simpleton (vulg. penis)'

Meister in German is 'master' as in master craftsman, ton meister etc.

In German,

Putz
m , -es no pl a dated (=Kleidung) finery
(=Besatz) frills and furbelows pl
in vollem Putz erscheinen to arrive all dressed up in one's Sunday best

So I guess this makes sense, but on April 1st it did give me pause.

i am happy with the deal.

but  "Able to find other sources of income to compensate the loss"  is what?
Increase the loan interest
Heavy change on their Credit cards, collection fee + interest
Poor exchange rate
other  administration fees for pepper works

Let me guess, to find other sources of income to compensate the loss, the will rising the fee of 150 baht to maybe 200 for foreign card usage at the ATM.
