Importing Trucks

I presume you're talking about a 2nd hand unit. I currently have a 2005 F250 XLT 4x4 sitting in a yard in Canada after purchasing it for our recent trip. While they can be amazingly cheap in the USA and Canada, the hoops you have to jump through to get one back can be a long and exhausting process. It is certainly not something we would have contemplated unless we had been living overseas for more than a year. Even then we would have bought a new vehicle and had it shipped ex factory (dealer) to satisfy Australia's stringent AQUIS requirements. Expect $30K plus for RHD conversion costs as well once you get it home.

A google search will provide plenty of sites of vehicle importers as well as the government regulations surrounding imports. It's not as simple as popping it in a container believe me. This link is a good start;
