I followed a rainbow out to a garage and found a leprichaun. The rainbow ended in a potted cactus on his porch, but there was no gold :(

If it were me...
i would visit Pirate4x4.com and check out the for sale section. Its no secret that the USA is in trouble financially. There are some sik built rigs that are WAY underpriced. If you choose 1996 or older, you can bring a modded out jeep with no hassle. i have done it once with a jeep.
That is what i would do. 8)

You might want to watch out how modified it is when bringing it into the province. Out of Province inspections can really suck unless you find a shop that will do it and overlook the mods. Something to consider.

who said you need to register it .. if it stays on a trailer there wont be any issues       but even then .. with a nice smile and 200 bucks i dont know many mechanics that would fail someting for some cash on the side

Please  re-read Spinalguy's post. He very clearly indicated that a rig that is 1996 or older is not an issue if it's modified. Given that he imported his current CJ from Washington state last year, he's pretty in tune with the realities of importing a vehicle.

Just was keeping in mind the OP said part of him wanted something very street legal so no trailer only. And part of him wants something newer. So if it's post 96 then he would have that to consider.

Worrying too much about mpg with a Jeep is similar to worrying about your sister's virginity. An ok thing to be concerned about but...
