PennSilverTaco's "Perfect 5-Lug Regular Cab" Build, Aspergers, and General BS MegaThread!

I got the new plate at a place called Butterworth’s Auto Tags...

They have this on the front desk!

 

Post up a picture when you get it!

 

The final poll results...

 

Less than 100 miles to go!

 

New patch!

 

They do. Plus, every manufacturer here sells a midsize pickup. The choices are numerous.

 

Would a Costa Rican Taco be legal in America?

 

That I don't know. Mine was manufactured in Mexico, so it might be close to being legal. You'd probably have to contact your DMV or Federal government Dept to see if it is, and what has to be done to get to meet the requirements for import.

 

A local Ford dealer in my area sold a Mustang that was originally sold new in Puerto Rico, but that’s a US territory so it has the same emissions equipment. I’d imagine yours would be legal to register in a state like Florida or Oklahoma where there’s no emissions testing, but somewhere like California or New York where they have strict emissions testing might be tricky.

 

Thinking I should get

 

It's like a sequel to a certain New York plate from Seinfeld...

 

And also, you're a police officer in Costa Rica?

 

Truer words have never been spoken!

 

I was one in Canada. I retired down here.

 

Yeah; Not easy being a cop nowadays!

Does your truck have the big numbers on the speedometer in kilometers?

 

No, but l loved the job. Very satisfying being there for people when they need help somehow. Plus, I always believed that the best tool l had was the ability to talk with people and to act like a human being. It doesn't always work. But its the first tool l would use and the one l would use all the time.
So many people would be angry as hell at the mere sight of me when I first got there. But the vast majority would shake my hand when l left, and we'd be on a first name basis.


The speedometer in my Tacoma has metric as the primary numbers, and U.S. in smaller numbers.

 

Just like back home in Canada; Do vehicles get titles in Costa Rica like they do in the US and Canada, or is there another way of proving ownership?

 

Nice!
