What are you doing as a dealer/importer?

  1. I am getting as much inventory as I can possibly afford, as quick as possible.

    As a small importer, bending over and picking up a bar of soap.
    Just saw the new draft EPA came up with after the Houston meeting.
    The little guy is screwed.

    Bad news? That sucks.

    You are welcome to come up here to Canada and stay cold the majority of the year.

    So after all these extensions expire ......?

    Wish I could. Canada 6 months, Costa Rica 6 months. Make that 4 and 8. I saw quite a few Suzuki vans running around the resorts in CR. Never saw a truck. A truck would be absolutely perfect down there. Anybody want to start importing to CR? We can use my buyer in Japan.
     
  5. Please do tell?

    I'm confused, how does this relate to what has already been released by the EPA and the extensions? Why in Houston and who made up the audience to make the decisions? The KTA has been quite - at least I have not noticed much for posts....

    I'm very interested in keeping up on the MiniTRUCK politics - State and Federal.

    Thanks,

    Norm

    Best to get it from the horses mouth.

    Lets all give our employers two weeks notice, shut down our small businesses and go to work for the U.S. Gov. Do I have a Amen.
     
  7. It's going to take about 6 months but I think we're gold on most models, the plan is to have new AND used ready for import by the deadline
