Brilliant job.
You keep hitting all the right types of topics I want to know about,
Keep rolling...
Thanks mate, appreciate it 🙏👍😁
Stick with the winning formula when you can by showing condominiums .. this is a great video as well ..
Thanks, will do! condo tour x 2 tomorrow
Thanks Jason, well deserved on the new subscribers, always happy to support another Aussie having a go, best of luck on the early retirement and new adventures.
Thanks, I have not watched the video as I hate seeing myself on camera, is the video okay?
@Good Vibes Pattaya 1 minute ago, thats almost live! 👍
Is it okay?
Hi Jason,
Great to see your channel is a success. Keep up the good work.
Thanks John, I never know as I just piece together clips and don’t have editing software and really appreciate your feedback 👍😁🙏
Pat and his shirt are awesome!
Agree and he is a legend and if you want to buy a Ford Ranger or Everest in Pattaya he is your Man
Exactly what I was thinking!!!!!
Very informative video thank you Jason 👍👍
Thank you JC much appreciated 🙏👍😁
Great video Jason, it's good to mix up the videos. There's loads of other channels out there doing apartments and property. Property is a niche.
Loved this video. Top fives is a good way to go. Top 5 bars, top 5 night clubs, restaurants, etc. Worth a try. Not everyone is looking for apartments. ✌️🙏👍
Thanks Rich, I’m a car guy and the the top 5 were the actual top five sellers last year but I like your thinking
Thailand is really killing it with their automotive manufacturing industry. I know a lot of the Honda motorcycles are made in Thailand as well.
Thank you , much needed info 👍
If you can in the future, please do a price comparison on compact cars 🚗 🙏
Okay 👍
Very helpful and presented in a relaxed and informative manner, saving your viewers so much running around. It’s all there if you are after a Ute. Great vid. Thanks
Thanks Max, glad you enjoyed it and appreciate the nice words and support 🙏👍😁
Jason well done on the national stats. I was the Austrade automotive guy here years ago. Nothing much has changed. What remains interesting is the market shares of brands like Ford are higher in outer provinces. Also add the export numbers to local sales and the total production figures for each brand can be interesting. Any way, like you I was an industry guy. From my years here, there is always a deal to be had.
Thanks Tony, good to know a fellow car guy 👍😁
Great Intel mate, can you do SUV's & sedans including prestige brands as well ? Awesome work 👍
Thanks, okay I will look into it and do some research, from what I see on the road the Toyota Fortuner is extremely popular but will do the research and make a video 👍
Hell of a lot cheaper then here in Australia mate.
Shit yeah, they are all made here 👍
Fantastic vlog Jason, my favorite Thailand related channel, very informative and knowledgeable you have great mix and variety of subjects that are very helpful for anyone interested in visiting or retiring in Thailand. Thank you.
Thanks Andrew, I really appreciate the kind words and that you have taken the time to comment 🙏😁. Waiting in hospital to be discharged following my food poisoning 🤢
Wish you a quick recovery Jason and looking forward to more exciting content👌
I'm in Sydney and travel to Thailand often with the idea of retiring one day soon in that beautiful country🙏
Always Hilux for me ... great cars
Yep, definitely cannot go wrong with a Hilux 👍
Great video 😉👍🏼
Thank you 👍
great video, I'm looking to get a toyota pickup when I land there. Cheers!
Thanks mate, can’t go wrong with a Toyota 👍👍👍
0:53 great content Jason 👍new subscriber, looking to come over to live, I suppose many are due to the cost of living in the U.K. & EU content related to this Jason would help many of your subscribers: keep safe Jason 👍😎
Thank you so much Anthony, really appreciate it so much 🙏👍😁
Good stuff, thanks Jason. Cheers Brian. Durban, South Africa.
Thanks Brian, hope the video is okay as I never watch and just post and wait for the comments 😶
@@goodvibespattaya2423 Video cool Jason
@@brianbarbarich1401 thank you so much 🙏
@@brianbarbarich1401 thanks mate 👍
Hey bud, new follower here. Very good video on the trucks. I'm in USA now but spent most of last year in Thailand and coming back in 45 days or so to go after the non o visa. Everyone seems to be doing the property ones so mixing it up with trucks was a good idea. How about thinking about doing one on the top 5 cars? I know that would be a good one too. Anyway love your vids keep it up. Thanks
Thanks David, much appreciated 🙏 yeah that’s a good idea, I will do some research and make a video on the top 5 selling passenger cars
Hi Jason,,Like me you have been in the motor trade for a long time. My background was mainly in sales..I started at a Holden Dealership in 1983..I use to deal with many area Managers over the years...Good luck with everything over the there..I have been coming to Thailand since 1983 also and generally travel there 4..or 5 times a year..Hope to see you around..Cheers 🍻
Wow, that’s great and yeah I started as an apprentice mechanic at a Holden dealer in 1982 👍 Thanks for sharing this and look forward to meeting you one day 😁
Great vlog. I can't believe that a Ford Raptor is so much cheaper in Thailand than it is in the US.
Made here
Great vid Jas. Good to know what’s out there and the associated prices. 50 grand for a Raptor is excellent compared to Oz. I priced one a few months or so back and I think the entry point was about 70-75k.
Thanks 👍
What a great Video Jason. Very informative and enjoyable. Hilux number 2 ? Never!!!!! always number 1.
Guess what I drive, 😅
Keep up the good work mate!!!
Thanks mate, yeah Hilux number 2 here, the Thais just love the DMax and it has almost a cult following, I think it’s mostly the low rider Utes, I see them everywhere and heavily modified 😁
TCL from the Vegas Expo are bringing out Translation glasses which do it all and they look unreal and well worth looking at for sure leave all the others for dead .
Sounds amazing, I will google it and check them out 👍
In summary, the selling truck in Thailand is the Isuzu D-Max, followed by Toyota Hilux, Ford Ranger, Mitsubishi Triton and Nissan Navara.
Yep 👍
Utes are widely used in TH, hope you will have more content about it like setting up utes for offroading, pickup racing and overlanding.
That's the plan 👍
good vlog, good info, saves me the run around, thanks. 👍👍👏👏
Good to hear!
Those utes in Australia have to wait nearly 12 months plus overpriced to the hilt Jason not cheap at all in Aus.Thailand the way to go.
Yep I know, interesting that the Mazda BT50 doesn’t sell here, I don’t think they tell people it’s a DMax, the Mazda dealer has 2 in stock and they are 2 years old 😶
Great information . Thank you ...
While I’m not in the market for a pickup in Thailand.. and am pretty sure I never will be, 😆 it’s good to get comparison prices for all things (including in AUD , not just USD) and vehicles are a great indicator , it just goes to show how much bullshit tax’s the western governments put on imports ,
Another good vid mate, keep up the good work 👌..
P.S… breakie did look good 😋👍
Thanks mate, yeah I will include Aussie pricing, the dollar sucks at the moment 😩
@@goodvibespattaya2423 , I’ve been watching financials & a lot of analysis’s are predicting AUD to rise in 2023… I’m hoping by March when I come 😆😆🤞🤞🤞
@@boeasy3015 great 👍 I hope so too 😁
Jason, great video. What Pickup are you going to recommend your Buddy James buys. Would be a great way to travel all around Thailand in a brand new Pick Up Truck.
Hey Craig, he was hell bent on buying a Ranger against my recommendation and not just because I’m not a ford fan but he realized Ford Australia had replaced 9 Rangers to customers and agreed it would be a tough ownership In Thailand so he is thinking Toyota
@@goodvibespattaya2423 Jason, what would you buy if had unlimited funds. Can't believe the import duty on vehicles is 300%. That rules out the Hummer.
Shit mate, that’s a very personal choice. Probably an AMG
@@goodvibespattaya2423 I know the Hummers aren't Picks Ups, but how do you rate the Hummers?
I like the Utes but the steering wheel is on the wrong side. I'll take the Raptor.
No hybrids/electrics? These are becoming popular in the US.
3.34k subscribers, and rising rapidly. One big viral and you could eclipse 30k.
Thanks Frank, I know the feeling! I spent a month driving across the states and it was so hard to get used to LHD 🤣
Wish we had those Isuzu D-maxes in the states. Su h a cool little truck.
Lot of work thanks
Might I be as so bold to suggest that you could pin the prices on the vid post filming...this would cut the video length down a bit whilst being 'at a glance' very informative and easy to compare................cheers
Good idea!
Great vlog .. would love of those pickups but I'm told you have no chance of getting one unless you buy it on finance . Cash sales are a no no .
Thai’s finance, I have a friend who paid cash and got a 30,000 baht discount
Great video, thanks
Glad you liked it!
Cheaper than AUS for sure, but still far more affordable for us, than the average Thai. I was pretty sure Isuzu would be Nr 1. After many Thai trips, they seem predominant and just everywhere.
Yeah and crazy how the Mazda BT50 just doesn’t sell here and it’s a DMax underneath 😮
Great video
I looked at all these pick-ups at the garages you visited , by far the best visit was to Ford and Toyota , isuzu had i can't be bothered attitude
Yep, I know what you mean - they just take orders 👍
@goodvibespattaya2423 yes we had a million baht to spend also
You're gagging for a beer there matey.. 🤔🙄😂🍻
🤣🤣🤣🤣🍻
Great video mate. As you were an x mechanic I wonder if you can give me some advice? I have been living in Thailand for 17 years now and I have an Isuzu SX 2.5 liter pickup open back. It's done 200.000 Km and I can't afford to buy another one so I want to keep it. Do you think It's worth me having the engine rebuilt? I took it to a mechanic friend of my wife and he told us the price of the rebuild and It's 30,000 baht give or take depending on what needs replacing and he tells us it will last for a good 10 years and more with average mileage if we keep it serviced. The bodywork is immaculate. So in your own opinion, what would you say? Any advice from you would be greatly appreciated. thank you.
Thanks, is that a diesel or petrol engine and why does it need a rebuild, burning oil or something else? If it was me and I couldn’t afford a new one, I would rebuild the engine or see if you can buy a crate motor which is a brand new engine without all the ancillaries, manifolds etc.
Hope this helps and all the best 👍
Thanks mate It's a diesel engine. The bodywork is fine on it so I just want to have the car for good and put another 200.000 on the clock r more than that. The Thai mechanic up the road tells me You can keep a car forever if you re-build the engine. @@goodvibespattaya2423
I wonder if they are combining the dmax sales with the Colorado since they are almost the same truck
Colorado is no longer sold or manufactured here, the BT50 is a shared platform and running gear with the Isuzu but it just doesn’t sell here
Great video. I have no knowledge on these Utes and I am looking to purchase one. I will be driving regularly between Hua Hin, Bangkok and Pattaya and will be conveying my Scooter. I do not need to drive through extreme rugged terrain other than dirt tracks/ poor roads. I would like a mean looking Ute that is economical to run and service ,that has a comfortable interior with sat nav and an excellent media player. What Ute do you think I should buy that fits my requirements?
Thanks Daz, Isuzu D-Max or Hilux 👍👍👍
Need to do used cars and used bikes videos. I’ve worked on cars probably 40 years also but hot rod American cars. Don Los Angeles California do a video on importing your motorcycles and cars?
Thanks Don, yeah I will do video on used cars and maybe bikes and will also look into importing cars and investigate costs. Appreciate the feedback and thanks for watching 👍😁🙏
I would still do regular oil changes Jason indeed as my civic Type R regular service every 6 months that is me but.
I never saw utes towing trailers or with towbars in Thailand, unlike here in NZ. Is there some kind of law against it there?
See a few but nothing like at home or NZ 😊
Nice. Thank you and sorry for my late viewing. Any recommendations? Looking at buying a pick-up in Thailand, maybe second hand. Would be genuinely interested in your opinion - if that’s within your TH-cam policy.
Hi, happy to try and help - what is your budget, new or used, auto or manual?
Thanks
@@goodvibespattaya2423 thanks Mate. 700k, second hand OK, 4WD, automatic gearbox, preferably gasoline (even if Diesel may be preferred for such machines?)
Where do you show the price for the Toyotas?
That was a quite a while back, the Thai Toyota website has pricing
www.toyota.co.th/en/pricelist
Can you finance a car with a big deposit in ThaiLand or is it full price cash ? I will be an international college student in the fall 2024.
Not unless you have proof of income in Thailand and a Thai guarantor, not easy. I tried and offered 50% deposit and the answer was NO
Just purchased ranger wild track 2wd in Udon Thani $47000 drive away , they did paint treatment, interior protection, window trims and tint , swapped the grill for the black raptor style all thrown in, Drove it into an underground car park and thought the headlights were a bit ordinary, turns out they actually tinted the entire front windshield , only in Thailand. Quite a good deal and about what they are worth unlike the crazy prices people pay in Australia for these
175 batt for eggs sausage bacon toast etc? Where’s the 50 batt for that??
ee-suzu, not I-suzu mate! Good vids. Thx
How big is the bed of the single cab Ranger . The two door ???? Bed size ??
Sorry mate, I am not sure - did you check the Ford Thailand website?
@@goodvibespattaya2423 I’ll check it . Thanks 🙏
Do one on cars too.
Yep will do mate 👍
Any clues why Isuzu is the top dog Jason ? Their sales network , advertising , discounting , styling ?
I think there main seller is the low riding extra cab and I see heaps of these on the road modified with exhaust, wheels and boosted, I think if I could find the info the majority of Isuzu sales would be the low riding version, they also have a one make race series on that truck and it has a huge following
When I worked in Thailand in 2001, the Isuzu pick up was the best selling vehicle in the country. There is a lower sales tax on pick ups compared to cars. Hence, pick up sales are greater than sedan sales.
Do they offer cab chassis there
Being an Aussie should convert to Aus $
Nope they don’t, sorry about that, I understand it would be helpful to include the Aussie price and the Euro etc
Isuzu has softer ride than Toyota hi lux
Yep, Hilux ride is out of control hard and not enjoyable which is a shame because people have complained for years but Toyota being Toyota don’t listen or care, they sell shit loads but DMax is number one here so you would think they would listen
The bt 50 would be a bargain
Yeah but the Mazda dealer has 2 extra cabs in stock that we’re built 2 years ago, the price is good but not that good to justify buying a new car that is 2 years old
I have been to Thailand loads of times and the amount of Americans compared to Australian and especially British, English you would think you would have more prominent pricing in Pounds and Aussie Dollars… There is hardly any yanks out there 🤨
How about the payment Jas?. Full payment or can make a dowpayment.
Hard for a foreigner to obtain finance unless you can prove income and have a Thai guarantor 👍
@@goodvibespattaya2423 Thanks, mate. Now i know. Regards and good luck mate.
Hey bud enjoying your vids very much , I know how you can avoid the poor Thai car salesman in Thailand not speaking English well ,learn to speak Thai because you are living in his country 👍
Thanks Bill, yep the plan is to enroll in a Thai language course, not fair to criticize them for not speaking English
In Asia better drive asian cars ... the new HILUX next year will be very interresting. Triton is said to be very thursty
Yes, new Hilux will be interesting and look forward to it
Didn't think you had to drive the pickups away.
YOUARE IN THAILAND.
👍👍👍
What I like about your channel no crap and to the point. Stick to your format.
Thanks, yep I am who I am and no editing 👍
Salesman don’t know you already sold everything!
Woh look at those disastrous skies full full of geoengineering chemtrails maaaaate😑😣
Yeah no shit
Thanks Jason your bloods worth bottling. Why are you calling sales people crap?
Thank you very much, really appreciate it. Not all are crap
Bloody cheap 4wds over there jason
They are, pickups are cheap 👍
Learn the local language
I’ve been here 5 months, give me a break please mate 😂
