Its not the US border guards that give you a hassle
its the Canadian goverment that want their pound of flesh at the border.
It was easy for me at the border when I purchased an RV 2008
I saved 34000. canadian by buying it in tonawanda NY. Yes thats 34 thousand dollars. How long will it take you to save 34 000. big ones EH the Canadian dealers would not budge so I say f--k them. I will never purchase a big ticket items from canadian retailers untill those theiving bast--s lower threir price.
Just follow the instructions from the imported vehicles
people, then use a little perswasion on the dealer in the US
and he will do all the paperwork for you. he then sends it to the border 3 days before you pick it up. Then you pay the taxes at he border and drive it home.
And OH yes the Canadian dealers said to me that I woud get no warranty if I purchased it in the US Thats Bul---t
I needed warranty on the RV and got it no problem.And dont forget to shop around before you buy.

It's not that the Canadian dealer would'nt move it's that it COST him alot more then the americans can sell it for. Thats why there sre several lawsuits against the American manufacturers. In my paticular case it's the Americans slowing things down at the border along with alot of other people standing in line.

ok i followed the rules set by the Canadian goverment and
had no problem importing my 2008 f0rd Vehicle to Canada it was less of a headache than buying it in Canada. remember I saved 34000. Canadiaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan how much agravation would you endure for 34000. Canadian EH
and besides the warranty issue ,if you are going to have problems for warranty from the manufacture you cam purchase private warranty from the dealer at a cost of 2000.00 canadian from a private insurance Co, so that would of left me with only a saving od 32000. canadian savings.not bad EH EH
Ps Rick I am sorry I dont have time to spell check the wife has summened me.

No dought you got a good deal and even if it voids your warranty im sure 34k would go along way to repair anything in the future. I agree with the dollor doing so well it's alot cheaper to buy in the states right now which many canadians are taking advantage of. Hey thats why im doing it, that and i could'nt find what i wanted here anyways. Just watch the news practically every night there is another story about cross border shopping and how things have gotton so back logged and it's making for long line-ups. In some cases they are backed up for as much as 3wks waiting for the proper documentation, depending on what it is that your bringing over.

Dealers here have been instructed by the manufacturer to no longer sell to Canadians to protect the dealers in Canada. A directive came down to the local Honda dealership about 3 weeks ago and apparently has occured at the other dealerships as well. A good friend of mine had just sold a Honda to a lady from B.C. and saved her $6000. Jim

Don't be to harsh on the Canadian dealers they are in a real bad spot right now. When this dealer bought his 100k RV the dollar was trading at 66 cents to the American dollar. Now that the dollar is basically par he has to eat $34k. Not going to happen and im sure many companys are feeling the pinch right now. Not only is their capital tied up in overpriced inventory and it dosent give them a chance to now restock at better deals but they can't sell what they have now unless they want to bankrupt themselves. What the big issue is right now that has got Canadians riled up is that even with the exchange rate taken into consideration there is still thousands of dollars difference that these companys have no answer to other then the fact of blaitenly ripping off Canadians. It's only now been noticed becouse the dollar is basically at par and people have notice the now obvious. Now that the Canadians have caught on they are going down in droves to get cross border deals and the American companies stand to lose millions of dollars and are putting preasure on the American government to put a stop to these actions. This is why some Canadian groups are now filing civil lawsuits against many american manufacturers not just car companies. All this is happening as you read this so past experiences on cross border shopping were a bit easier.

[Canucklehead]

I should also say that the Canadian retailers have notice the problem and have been putting pressure on the Canadian government to do something about it. Now maybe the slowdown at the border has something to do with that i don't know. Maybe its just a backlog as it took a few weeks before anyone noticed the problem.

PS. Budnate before you jump up to yell BS, maybe check your current affairs first.

[P.J.]

you are absolutlely right exept the politicians must not piss off the canadian voters too much because as you know the goverment is collecting taxes at the border.Buy American "Its worth the drive to Buffalo"

[budnate]

wasn't aimed at you personally, I based my opinion on first hand experience with a guy and the border people, we talked daily and finally said screw it,

I think thats holds up as a current go at the border not some 4th hand he said story.
