Bringing my Mercedes Sprinter Van to America

Hi,
I'm Peter from Germany.
We plan to travel the States in our own Class B Motorhome. We want to ship it to Halifax or Baltimore an travel the country for 8 weeks.

I supplied some information about my car in my profile, including a recent photograph.

Regards
Peter
Class B

    Met a couple from Germany this past summer who were traveling for a year. They bought a truck and trailer and planned to sell it when they left in October. With shipping costs, import taxes, voltage changes and miscellaneous charges it might be cost effective to buy and then resell one from the U.S.
