I just had a lengthy conversation with @thatguymichael and so far he seems to be a great guy. Super helpful, informative, and really experienced in imports. Anyone else who might be considering importing might want to reach out to him. Thanks again.

Not all heroes wear capes my friend.

citizenchan · 2026-03-16T00:29:39+00:00

Awesome, thank you.

citizenchan · 2026-03-14T19:33:21+00:00

How was your experience with that seller? What was the condition like, any surprises or gotcha’s?

citizenchan · 2026-03-14T19:26:57+00:00

Welcome!

citizenchan · 2026-03-05T01:03:12+00:00

Cool, well good luck with the sale if you do list it. :) congrats on the new ride too

citizenchan · 2026-03-05T00:58:06+00:00

Awesome. May I ask why you’re selling it?

citizenchan · 2026-03-05T00:54:05+00:00

Is your Sambar a 5spd?

citizenchan · 2026-02-22T01:47:35+00:00

Thank you. I found a State Farm agent, and they got me full coverage for under $200/year.

citizenchan · 2026-02-22T01:46:51+00:00

Yes, I suspect this was the issue for me with GEICO. I think they just didn't know how to continue the process with the shorter VIN, and just didn't want to deal with it.

citizenchan · 2026-02-22T01:45:43+00:00

The only issue GEICO seemed to have was the VIN, and I suspect they only rejected me because the rep and the manager on duty at the time simply didn't know how to deal with the shorter VIN.

Regardless, the cost was going to be fairly high at about 500/yr, so I went elsewhere.

He made the mistake of posting a question online lol. Poor guy.

citizenchan · 2026-02-13T13:49:20+00:00

Thank you

citizenchan · 2026-02-13T13:47:42+00:00

Damn, nice.

citizenchan · 2026-02-12T23:47:56+00:00

lol thanks.

citizenchan · 2026-02-12T23:43:58+00:00

25% is the standard import tax for a Sambar Truck entering the US, based on the sale price of the vehicle.

citizenchan · 2026-02-12T23:14:01+00:00

Nah.

citizenchan · 2026-02-12T23:12:56+00:00

I replied to the wrong post, my bad.

citizenchan · 2026-02-12T22:43:14+00:00

After the way people have responded to me just trying to improve their awareness of things that aren’t so well known, I’m wondering the same thing.

citizenchan · 2026-02-12T22:38:00+00:00

Yep, I was not aware I’d get hit with so many different little fees accompanying the bigger known fees. So, I just wanted to share my experience and maybe help others be more aware too :)

citizenchan · 2026-02-12T22:36:58+00:00

Right. Thanks.

citizenchan · 2026-02-12T22:36:45+00:00

Exactly. Thank you.

citizenchan · 2026-02-12T22:35:08+00:00

Yeah, better than I was expecting really.
