    So I clicked the link for the Toyota site and Google asked if I wanted it translated to English. I clicked yes and it translated "Vehiculos" to "Vegetables" Hahaha!! No, I don't want to $280,000 MN for some vegetables.

    The good news: You're not going to get killed in Mexico unless you're dumb as shit. That is ridiculous.

    The bad news: Buy a truck there and US Customs, and in my case the California DMV as well, will happily tell you how you're going to spend the next five years of your life rebuilding it to meet US safety and emissions standards. It's going to cost you hundreds of thousands more than the truck ever would.

    Last I read the going rate on converting Ferraris from Italy was about 600k and two years to do the work.

    EDIT: $280,000MN is about 22 grand US. Not a screaming deal.
