    I was wondering if there was any hoops, hassles, or other pain in the butt paperwork that a guy would need to go through when buying a used commercial truck from Canada, to be imported to and be registered in the U.S.

    Maybe I should have put it this way,

    I was wondering about buying a commercial truck from an Individual and importing it 'myself'.

    anybody else knows about importing a truck? What about financing a truck, which is sold in Canada?

    You can get it across the border, but when you register it is when you will have the paperwork nightmare.
