1) US passport are visa exempt

2) no one knows

US citizens cannot get Visa on Arrival. They can get visa exempt.

There is no law about how many times you can enter visa exempt per year. The only thing that's written policy is that you can only enter 2 times visa exempt per calendar year at a land border.

But you can't live in Thailand using visa exempt or other short term entries because eventually you'll be pulled aside at immigration and grilled about why you're spending so much time in Thailand and at some point you'll be denied entry.

THIS same question is often asked.

You mention arriving Visa on Arrival... VOA

However, as you are American, you are eligible for Visa Exempt Entry into Thailand.

How MANY times each year is solely at the discretion of the Thai Immigration Officer who greets you on arrival.

Just how many times are you planning on visiting Thailand yearly ?

Possibly, a BETTER suggestion is for you to look at the Thai Embassy in the USA and get a correct Thai Visa for your planned visits to Thailand.
