Hi Peter,

Once those Humans walk across the border they stay in the US by not
getting registered. I don't think you can pull that trick easily with a
T5. Police tend to notice when a vehicle isn't plated correctly.

Nothing is impossible however. There are certain loopholes that have
been exploited in the past. Diplomatic privileges, federal seizure and
Mechanic/Storage liens have "naturalized" some otherwise prohibited
imports. None of these are easy however, nor are they "on-demand"
procedures.

Also: how are you planning on maintaining this vehicle once it's out of
Mexico?  I doubt insurance would cover shipping it back to Mexico for
repair after a fender-bender....

Happy Trails,
