Default Buying a truck in the U.S.

Just wondering If anyone has actually gone to the U.S. and picked up a vehicle. My wife works at a dealership and we can get a a truck (GMC) at dealership cost plus $200.

Does it make sense for us to take a loan from the bank, go down and purchase a Truck down there?

Whatcha figure CP

one thing to maybe consider is that her employer might not be too happy if you go and buy a vehicle elsewhere. I work at a dealership and i know my boss would be none too happy if an employee did not purchase from him.

From what I hear, trucks are easier to import than cars and are also more worth it financially. Not from personal experience though.
