We live in Texas, ordered our LT FS SS through a dealer in Oregon, but plan to pick it up at the factory in Manitoba, Canada. They have lots of experience in all this. They will have all the necessary documents needed to bring the RV back into the US. Since it is a cash sale, we will not pay any taxes until we return to Texas. We will be given the VIN, etc. to supply our insurance agent before we go, and AFTER we have accepted the van we will simply call and have him put through the insurance policy. We will have a temp. plate like any new car purchase and will get our new plates through the Texas DMV where it will be registered. Our first shake down will begin from the factory in Canada and eventually wind up home in Texas. Shooting for the end of August.
