US/Canada border laws
#23
Went to canada over the summer and just need drivers license. The us border guards are idiots. He ask for our IDs we pass them to him (all six are IL divers license) he then ask if we are citizens, we say yes... then very coldy he says of what country.... I confusedly said the US. As we were leaving i said, thank god you didn't find our pillow case full of weed. Last time I go to Canada

i needed to bring my greencard and had to actually go into this building at the border for them to verify, 5 min. later i was in canada, not one problem, the canadian border patrol lady was also flirting with me, i guess canadian women are more receptive of foreigners the american women, maybe i should move...:gay:

From all your posts it sounds like I'm good to go. I'm just hesitant because I have never done this before. I'm going to have the car cleaned out of EVERYTHING. Obviously I'll need to clean out all of my drugs, alcohol and firearms.
Philip is right about the new passport laws. As of next year you need one to cross the border no matter what.
1redcanuck, that hardtop is MINE. I already put a deposit down on it. I've only been wanting one for 2 years. The paint is rough, but it doesn't matter to me.

Well, I drove 550 miles, had to listen to a droning exhaust, spent 13 hours and went through 2 tanks of gas, but I got it. Customs didn't give a ****. Told them we were going to the casinos and they didn't even pay attention.
We stopped off in Toronto and went in the CN tower. It was really awsome, I loved the glass floor. I have to say Canada was very nice, but boring as HELL between cities. I loved the service centers, or centres.
All in all, Canada was fun. I hope I don't need to do a trip that long in the Miata again ever. Having no cruise SUCKED, and revving at 4k for 3 hours at a time was LOUD. Anyway,
Here it is in all it's glory, my ugly red hardtop! Hopefully it will be blue soon.
