Default Re: I'm canadian, thinking of buying my Honda in the US?

"free".... I like that... and I LOVE the 30% of my salary I pay in income
tax.

Plus 6% GST and 7% PST on pretty much EVERYTHING. Those 2 taxes will be
added to any new vehicle I buy, no matter if its from Canada or the US.

The Canadian dollar used to be in the low $0.60s USD 3 years ago. Then
Georgie went on a war spending spree and now its $0.93 USD.

Vehicle prices have not adjusted as such.
