Bringing new 2016 from US to Canada

Right on.

I will eventually mod the truck, but I am afraid a bit about invalidating the waranty. And since I am not a mechanic at all, having the truck as close as possible to what I want makes me feel better.

 

I am already doing this part time, at least one month every year.

 

I wouldnt do this just to get a truck. The moment you incorporate a US company, you are required to file US tax return. Just opening a can of worms. It will be nothing but a headache.

 

ATRAC is something you need to turn on, it is off by default.

Excellent. Thanks.

 

I think he's in for a headache however he proceeds if he buys a taco in the US.

 

Yes, I think it would not be simple. It seems Toyota Canada is forcing me to by a F150 or a Wrangler... or a 2016 TRD Sport, and I mod it a lor, which would cost me also a ton of $$$ since most of the parts come from the US anyway, taxes plus transportation... Beurk.

 

It would be a lot simpler to buy a used truck.

 

"...here is what happens at the border." Border?? What border? He'll be driving an OR.

 

Hopefully...

 

Where there's a will (and a wallet), there's a way. Seriously, it seems that you just need to know and trust someone in the US who will buy it for you, then just wait patiently for 4 months.

 

I know someone that could do that for me. He doesn't know yet...
But again i will have:
- Bring him to buy the truck (I have to get from Montreal to Miami)
- Ask him to insure the truck
- Store the truck away for 120 days
- Go back, buy the truck, and change the ownership to me
- Get all papers for the Canadian Custom
- Drive the truck here
- Pay federal and provincial taxes for a total of 15% (burp...)
- Have it inspected buy RIV
- Have it plated here
- Enjoy it......

Might pay some company to do all this.

 

As I wrote, where there's a wallet, there's a way.

 

It may not be much but HST in Canada is only 13%, not 15%. I live in Ontario so it might be more in Quebec. Having bought a Harley in the U.S.A. I know the cross border thing can be a pain. I would strongly consider buying either a used US model or a new Canadian model and simply mod it to your particular needs.

 

HST or PST / GST rates are different for each Province

 

PST is 9.995% in Quebec, for now...

 

I am considering all options. While the Canadian Web site is not updated, I can't compare. But you are right about the painful process.
