    Well GF was bored and wanted a store. So I paid 80,000 for coolers,freezers, and shelfs. Then spent another 150,000 metal doors for our open porch to become a store. The dropped another 50,000 to stock the store. Three trips a week to keep it stocked. I will not go into what a pain it is to go to these wholesale places. They do not design them for parking. Anyway after about a month she started running low on Leo and lao kao. And she did not have money to buy them. She had about fifty excuses. So I resupplied her, bitched a little. And started paying attention. Family was taking booze and cigarettes for free.
    Don't under estimate the power of stupid people in large groups!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I don't want to sound to critical, but I figure they(gf family) probably have a deal for you already that includes two pigs, 12 chickens and a brand new Farang boyfriend for your girlfriend once you exit stage right.

    You're exit value is not more than 30,000Baht and you get to keep the old worn out tires.
    You may be right. Still got the used tires.

    Drop a tin of valve grinding paste into where you fill the engine oil.
    The engine will be completely fucked.

    I`ll take a guess that your g/f wants to sell it for 160 K, being half the purchase price.

    Hope things work out for you

    If it's in your name, then you will have to do the leg work yourself unless you know of a trustworthy local who will help.

    If it was me, I'd make sure it fucked up in a few weeks time and lost your ex's family some face.

    Gotta love that.
    Thats EXACTLY what I was thinking .
    Buy used and sell for fcall of a loss . Everything here is used or fucked up from new anyway .
    I will be up for a truck in the near future . Any VJ valiant utes about?

    She is saying " you know with the flood no people have money" she wants me to sell for 110,000
    The flood had no effect up here other than short supply of some things.

    Is this a joke? If not, this is the biggest facepalm i've read in a while. Doh!!

    I cant beleive that wealthy westerners still get fukked over by rice farming peasants in this day and age, with the interweb being such a goldmine of info.

    Doh!!

    Good luck soldier.

    I had a similar sort of problem when I split up with my wife.
    The car was in her name and I wanted it in my name but she was giving me the run around.

    I got a copy of her ID card and got a thai to sign her name.
    I then went to the LTO and moved it across to my name.
    I sold the car 3 years later, no problem

    Why sell it if you're not going to be around?
    What's the loss?

    Let them keep it.
    Or, give it to charity.

    Yes we are splitting. But she thinks I am just leaving to go to work. She is trying to rip me off and she thinks we are together. If she knew we were splitting I would not get anything.

    I wanted to buy a used truck. Because the family would be using it. And the g/f needed to learn how to drive. We looked at several trucks but did not like any of them.(Of course all picked out by family)
    JHC!

    This is the pussy-whipped, desperado, penis-less shite that I just can't get my head around out here.

    Bet you could get more for the wife. Sell her and move to the south on a beach and then sell the truck. Jesus and a shitty pun " You were taken for a ride" Once more so sorry for your situation and the best of luck.

    Thanks I thought this one was different. She started getting fruity when our investment went south. But I am not sure that didn't get helped along with the little piece of bad luck.
