The Legality of Japanese Mini Truck Titles: What You Need to Know
Download MP3Overview:
- For years, states have struggled with titling Japanese mini trucks, often classifying them as motorcycles or ineligible imported vehicles.
- The confusion arises from the 25-year exemption for import documents, which exempted certain vehicles from importation rules but didn’t address their titling.
- Some states are now pushing for laws to allow these vehicles on the road due to their popularity, including models like the Nissan Skyline GTR.
- Federal opposition exists, as some argue these vehicles are unsafe, leading to legal disputes over whether they should be allowed on the road.
States Involved:
- Texas and Colorado are two states attempting to pass laws that would make titling these vehicles possible.
- Federal government has filed lawsuits to block these efforts, citing safety concerns.
Key Points:
- The 25-year exemption applied to certain imported vehicles but did not ensure that these vehicles could be legally registered.
- Many people want to drive these vehicles, but legal challenges remain.
- If a state doesn’t allow registration, you can’t legally drive the vehicle.
