$900 from Texas to.....Buffalo crossing? or? Detroit or?
I remember you posting that you had lived in Ontario for a stretch?
All Good

It was from Tx to the border crossing near Watertown NY. Lansdowne crossing. My wife had a work Visa but I only had a temporary residency status. I have taken some trucks across at Port Erie too but Lansdowne was closer and to me less busy. Also the United States auto export is right there and they were good guys to deal with. One was into older trucks so we spent more time talking trucks than inspections. (They only verify vin) It's really not has hard as people make it out to be as long as you have ALL your paperwork and your story is legit. I took 4 trucks across in the 3 years I lived there. Hope this helps. 2000.00 dollar truck (older than 15 years) with A/C would cost about 200.00 to import. 100 for the value and 100 because it had a/c. (whether it works or not, if it had it at anytime you will be charged the fee) Oh you pay an additional 8% when you go to register it but you pay that anyway when you buy a car up there.(Ontario) ken
