    Has anybody bought a newer glider south of the border and imported it to Canada successfully? I have an old schneider glider, a 2012. They brought them up here then ended up selling them off? Mine is a US truck, the speedo is in Miles.
    I am looking for a new truck and not sure I want an emission truck.

    I know new ones aren't allowed, wondering about a used 2017 or 18. Lots of them down there. None up here.

    I would call up customs at one of the boarders and see what they tell you .If they can’t help you they should be able to point you in the right direction i would think

    It may also depend on which Province is going to plate the Truck

    Check with RIV - they clearly state you cannot bring a glider into Canada for import...

    I've been told that, but I bought mine from Schneider in guelph, it was a us truck they brought in? So its doable, just how?

    Don't understand why they would not be allowed to be imported into Canada when certain provinces Deleting emotions isn't even illegal
