anybody know anything about importing medium/heavy duty trucks from overseas?
I know about importing personal vehicles, know a couple folks that have done classic trucks that way...are there different rules for bigger trucks?

I'd love to get my hands on a pre-2003 Volvo FL7 for a project I have coming up.

Sold the super duty and bought myself a 03 Infinity QX4. I love it. Great balance of practicality and creature comforts. Put some 31” Toyo Open countries on it and wil probably get a small levelling kit for a little more clearance from tires. So much nicer as a daily driver than a 3/4 ton diesel.

Those are pretty sweet, apparently they're horrendous on gas, but whatevs. Keep an eye on the frame at the front shock mounts. They were prone to failure on the Pathfinders of that vintage.

I like infinity, looked at g35 g37 and ifl (variant of g37) but they were a bit pricey. Wound up going with a 350z instead, but the GT with leather

no one is impressed with his/her made-up "existence".
You genuinely have no idea how you come across, do you?

If there were an "eye roll" post rating you'd be the unrivaled king of them.

I keep getting offers for my truck for 10k over what I paid.
Got real close recently but the whole market is so stupid I'm hesitant.

Maybe I'll listen to @conor mcgregor nut hugger and get an SUV.

Pretty slick. That would be cool for non-hiking camping trips.

I wonder if it can be removed so it doesn't eat up bed space when you don't need it.
it looks like it. Made me think of using a similar "flip up" range in an RV. Adds a lot of width to the walkway when not cooking
