To get a diesel in to the US is a pain, plus because of emissions rules, it would have to be a off road vehicle only

I did not realize it would be an issue since it is basically the same engine as the CRD liberty. I assumed you would have to meet our standards, but that was it. In all likeliness it should, but It may have completely different emission parts on it there than here. I really don't know, but it was a fun thought. :)

Yeah, it all comes down to emissions control equipment. Getting an older diesel in to the states would be easier, but any thing post 07+ is next to impossible to do it cheaply
