No worries on the Country of manufacture. They consider it to be American made. they go by the month of manufacture and they look at the dates of both the truck and the MH, so it is the date of manufacture of the MH that would be the deciding factor. They will charge you the 5% GST only at the border. Register it at home , pay the provincial tax and then get it safety inspected in your province. There is no federal inspection involved with this age of vehicle.

Good morning; Basically, you're going to find that both the 4 and 6 are fully capable of handling mountainous terrain. My 4cyl 22RE has crossed the Rockies several times and rode the Cabot Trail in Nova Scotia , which actually has steeper grades, with no problem. Just got a 6 cyl and will be puting it to the test. Already though, I can tell it will be able to maintain higher rpm's in hilly country. Have fun, see you on the road. Graham btw, going to the Toy Rally in Illinois in Oct.?

Usually you will find that the chassis was built one year and the MH affixed the next. When talking with the BS(Border Service:) be sure to let them know both years. The problem with the seatbelts probably applies to those in the MH section as well. You might have to wait until the new year to bring in the rig you are looking at.

Good morning. I just brought back a 1990 Toyota MH. Odyssey. The general rules do not apply to vehicles more than 15 years old, so a "92 should be OK. When I got to the Can. border(Milltown/St, Stephen, N.B.) and started to fill out the paperwork with the border guard he asked me if I had read the regs.. I said I had and he replied "you know if this Toyota had been less than 15 years old , it wouldn't be allowed in". I had known that but asked him if the book he was looking at gave him a reason for this. It didn't, but he said that usually it has to do with seat-belt standards, and since is is illegal to modify seatbelts in Canada, there would be nothing I could have done to meet the Canadian standarts!! Typical bureauocratic Catch-22. If I were you, I would call the Canadian Border Service and go through the usual bs until you get to speak to a live person. I believe a '91/92 should be ok now. Good luck; Graham

good morning; We have a1987/88 , 4cyl 22re engine. It now has 150,000 miles on it. We live on the East coast of Canada and have driven it out West 4 of the past 5 years, including a couple times over the Rockies. Last year that icluded a trip over the Beartooth(Bearpaw?) Pass outof the N.E. corner of Yellowstone park. Although it is currently down in New Hampshire getting some reno(new emergency brake system, new light covers ,etc.) we could confidently drive it across the continent again, We have just purchased a '90 odyssey model ;6 cyl 23,000 miles on it. I'll have to see it after a 100,000 or so to judge whether it is anywhere as good as the 4cyl 22re. My bet is that nothing is as good as that little engine. As far as tough goes, these rigs will take where you wanna go. Have a great time. Graham and Faye. Btw, are you going to the Toy rally in Indiana in Oct?

Hi folks. I am looking for a source to obtain rear tail light covers for my 1987 Sunland Express. One is broken and I will need to replace it in order to pass Motor Vehicle Inspection for the coming year,. HELP!
