Not a good idea, if coming in as a tourist. Maybe denied for misrepresentation.

I was in the same situation recently, so I flew to Phnom Penh for a 3 day weekend. Got my new visa exempt stamp, and a nice little trip to Cambodia. No Problem.

Just get your evisa on line, before you leave the USA.

I'm 62, and walk with a limp, which is at it's worst after 20+ hours of flying and layovers. Many times I'm directed to the fast lane. Now I ask, and they usually say yes.

If you are on a Tourist visa, a trip out of Thailand is required within the length of your Visa. I'm assuming 60 days + 30 day extension. So a ticket required within 60 days. You can book a cheap flight to Cambodia or Vietnam for around $50. There are other options . As often mentioned, Thai officers rarely ask for exit ticket. I've been asked maybe once, in many trips. However, airline gate personnel have asked me for an exit ticket on a few occasions. I recall one airline person actually counting the days on her fingers.

Stay in a hotel one night. Make sure they will file TM30.

To be safe book your flight out of Thailand to Vietnam or Cambodia before your 60 day visa runs out. Maybe you will find a changeable flight. The low cost airlines, probably not, but their fares are very reasonable. Like 50 USD one way. Many will say they are never asked about this flight out of Thailand. I've been asked to provide proof of a flight out a couple of times, usually by airline personnel.

The 60 days begin on the date of your arrival. This day is counted as Day 1.
