Not as simple as it used to be. I recently brought a JD 2750 (not antique, but not new) in through the port at Derby Line Vt. was told by one agent I'd need a broker, by another that I wouldn't and by one that it was ok because it was a North American tractor and by another that it would need to pay duty because it was made in Germany. I also learned that the trucker had to have filed an electronic manifest an hour in advance of hitting the border or they could fine him $5000. All in the name of homeland security! I decided that I'd better get some help and had the tractor picked up by a dealer who regularly imports manure handling equipment made in Canada. It cost more, but it got through with no hassle. A far cry from when I bought a used baler in Quebec and pulled it home behind my pickup and only had to show the bill of sale and my farm name
