Import Tips
• Verify 'new' status per statistical notes: unsold by manufacturer/dealer only; obtain original manufacturer certification
• Ensure EPA/CARB compliance for hybrid engines and DOT GVW documentation
• Common pitfall: misclassifying used units or those over 39,683 kg into different breaks
