"Friendliest people in the World" I think you're right Paul. Cool vehicles. Thanks. All the best.Mitch
The guy dancing, he did not know there was a camera till he showed up, started dancing right away, don't get any better than that...lol
so are used car salesman...friendly :)
Thanks for the smiles. 😁😁😁 Best wishes Bob. 👍👍
Those were a bunch of happy guys that is for sure.
Thanks Paul for your content. 😁
Thnaks for taking the time to take a look.
Ok I love this stuff, keep it up Paul
Thanks
Thank you for showing so fun good natured people good to see them
Thanks for having a look, amazing how much they like the camera.
Thanks for sharing! I would love to have one of those on my farm!
There only 60k in Roi Et, maybe even cheaper up your way as there made in Udon.
That's to cool. I need one them get air out riding and take my fishing gear and go fishing even pull my little boat lol but Skylab to cool. I could even use camping got cover. Hey thanks for sharing sir. God bless
Thanks, glad you liked the video.
Another informative vlog Paul. Bro in law's used to be 110cc...had it rebuilt a couple years ago... now 130cc w/4 speed auto. Certainly not built for speed... they sure can haul a bunch. Thanks for sharing.
Not built for speed or comfort, but cheap to run and very dependable.
Hard to believe it came with 110cc.
@@lifeinthailand he picked it up awhile back for next to nothing and we helped him get it refurbished. It's the smaller Skylab and we'll over 20 years old. My other brother in laws we got for him in 2014 and that one is bigger and has a 150cc motor in it.
I am waiting for the 2 wheeled tractor exhibition ! Cool , as you say!!
I will do it for sure, but there used for many things, not sure how the video is going to look right now.
A Lot of different modes of transportation. Cool
You never know what your going to see on Thai roads, these are popular in Northeast Thailand.
Cool, the all round utility bike.
If I could sell my ATV, I would get one, but I don't have parking for both.
@@lifeinthailand Thomas can have a man cave / mobile stud machine. 555
lol
@@lifeinthailand Better buy two, Andy needs one, just make the back a tent. 5555
lol, need to get the camping packages added, good idea.
im obsessed with these now i may just build one wish i could find a build video of the 4 wheel type i can only find the 3 wheel chain drive ,,, id like to make one so the back slides off my bike with a few bolts and same with the front ,,, gotta be a big job to fix them when they break down ,,
Cool video
Thanks, how many tanks do you have now?
@@lifeinthailand 32-33 that's up and another 10 or better just around empty
wow, good stuff indeed.
@@lifeinthailand 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿💯
I would have to have one at that price. use it like a little pickup. For all the local stuff. great stuff man ;-)
I think I would get one if I had somewhere to park it, I need to sell the ATV that I never use.
@@lifeinthailand I want a harley but I have had to make do with a western saddle stool...... Mind you it wont hurt as much if I crash the stool ;-)
lol, picking yourself off the floor is a lot easier than scraping yourself off the road.
thanks
Thank you.
Another good video Paul . Might be the angle but those motors look bigger than 130cc
There 130cc, it is written right on one of the bikes. The older models are 110cc.
@@lifeinthailand Yes I could see the 130cc written on the side of the bike , cylinder head just looks big for an engine of that capacity , just the angle it's on I spose
Maybe, I know they're not built for speed or comfort, but there cheap to run.
@@lifeinthailand And they do look groovy
Where are these? Interesting to see the different types of tuktuks in various cities. For instance in Kanchanaburi they use a sidecar style, in Sukhothai you sit in front of the driver
Most of Issan uses these, they're made in Udon Thani. This was filmed in Maha Sarakham.
I drive one of these skylabs everywhere easy to get around on i get some looks tho
Cool, I have seen a few white guys driving them, do you find them unconfortable to drive of is it just me?
@@lifeinthailand no they are a bit bumpy but I feel safer
than a motorbike we have a new car and a motorbike but its a good work horse
I like your fish videos they have taught me a lot thanks we've just biult a fish pond and are stocking it
Cheers
Thanks. I think they're a good deal for the price.
I have to do a fish harvest today or tomorrow. Good luck with yours.
This man, Paul, is married, living in Thailand and is so informative about Thai life.
Only 130cc damn that motor is working hard 😮
They seem to last forever, so it works. There differently not built for speed, no idea how fast they go.
Had one of these break down on me late at night in the middle off nowhere so the driver using a clipper lighter for a torch on a petrol engine i interveaned before we had a fire and rewired the distributor correctly by moon light and memory only then we was on our way.....now you can't make that shxt up :}
Sounds a lot like my story changing a tire on the taxi on a busy Indian highway in the dark, or driving the Thai taxi because the driver fell asleep at the wheel. It keeps life interesting.
@@lifeinthailand wow that tops mine 😁
will I didn't almost end up in an explosion..lol
They are big machines with only a small motor wounder why they have trouble getting the old lady's home,, 4 old fat lady's with there shopping ,,LOL,,, they need 200cc or 250cc but i know the price of them will be a lot more,,, funny buggers they are ,,,
They have ones with a 300cc motor, but there 40k more expensive.
Originally they came with a 110cc motor.
Mine was custom made and i added on to it it cane with 150cc and now i have a 300cc and a raked front end and have car tires and 17 inch mag rims!! Like to do more like getting rid of the fake leather top and having maybe a stainless no rust chrome type metal light weight top on it!!
