Toyota Corolla Reliability?
Depends heavily on maintenance history. Grandpa's 300k mile Corolla? That's the exception, not the rule. Even Toyotas need regular servicing. A neglected 2010 Corolla will absolutely throw you curveballs. Check the service records meticulously. Look for signs of neglected maintenance, rust, leaks, questionable repairs. If the paperwork's clean and the car's been looked after, your chances of a relatively problem-free experience are much higher. But, no car is truly indestructible. Even a well-maintained Corolla can have things go wrong unexpectedly, that's just the nature of owning any used vehicle. So, due diligence is key.
Yeah, makes total sense. My grandpa had one that ran forever, but that was a different era, I guess. I'm looking at a 2015 model, so hopefully, a decent service history will tell the tale. Thanks for the heads-up about the rust and leaks, I'll definitely be keeping a sharp eye out for those. Appreciate the advice!
best som tam in Bangkok? Krua Dok Mai Kao 2026
Krua Dok Mai Kao is solid but I've always found their som tam a bit tame on the pla ra. If you want the real funky version, try the shophouse spots along Soi Udomsuk 26, near the night market end. They pound it fresh with fermented fish that'll clear your sinuses, and it's like 60 baht. Different style from the On Nut places, more Lao-leaning.
for som tam specifically i'd say the Isaan spots in Chatuchak are underrated, weekdays only though since the weekend crowd ruins the vibe. there's a stall near gate 2 that does tam pa with fermented bamboo shoots, super sour and funky, not something you see much in On Nut. if you're already heading north for Or Tor Kor anyway its worth the detour.
honestly the som tam at Krua Dok Mai Kao is good but what got me hooked is their nam prik pla raa dip with the raw veggies, that funk hits way harder than the papaya does. think most people sleep on it cuz they just order the som tam and gai yang. also pro tip, go before noon on weekdays, after that teh pla ra gets milder cuz they batch it for the lunch rush
