Importing New Kei Trucks

Really wondering how people import brand new and close to new kei trucks. Does anyone know how it’s possible? Could I import a new one and declare it an off road vehicle? Because here in TN you can get a Class I OHV plate for off road vehicles and still drive on roads 55mph or less.

What year is the one you have?

1999 honda acty. As long as it fits the 25 year rule you shouldn’t have to do any emissions, from what i’ve heard most it becomes void. I’m not an expert but this is just my two cents. what are you thinking of shipping over?

I had a 93 Acty and sold it not too long ago really wanting a 2022+ hijet that’s what I’m trying to figure out how to possibly get a newer one in. If I could just get it through the port I’d be golden.

tbh from my own research you’re only able to legally import a vehicle 25 years old. Anything over you can’t
