TLDR : Answer Summary
Yes, for a 60-day tourist visa to Thailand, you are generally required to provide an onward ticket. This requirement is common as tourist visas typically necessitate proof of exit from Thailand within the allotted time. While some travelers have reported varying experiences, securing an onward ticket is advisable to ensure compliance with visa regulations.

My onward ticket has always 5 months from my arrival. I was told by a Thai Consulate they don't care what your outbound ticket is because anyone can change this at anytime....

I came to thailand with the same dilemma. I bought a return ticket, was not asked for confirmation by anyone, canceled the return when I obtained my visa extension.

Tourist visas require a flight into and out of Thailand, generally within 60 days, though some embassies will allow 90 days.

 you don't actually have to leave. You just need to show that you have a ticket out of Thailand. But you can still apply for the 30 day extension.
