    No ones forced to do anything .
    If you want a glider build one. Is all ive been trying to say.
    All these negitive people saying it cant be done anymore cryin and moanin....

    No one knows how to do anything anymore but sign on the dotted line.

    Theres other ways to skin a cat but you migt just have to work for it .

    I am still in talks with Schneider sales. I asked the person if the trucks parked in Ontario were actually registered in Ontario and I won't be going through the import hassle.

    Does anyone have some numbers where I could call and get information on registering a glider? I know a dealer in Ontario that has brand new gliders for sale so the emission issue with having older engine in newer truck should not be a concern.
