How about the giant trucks with huge blindspots known to roll over kids in driveways, where's the outrage there?
> But there's no good reason we need to allow people to import old, unsafe vehicles like this.
Sure there is, there's a gap in the market for small efficient light trucks/vans for around town and in urban environments, things that don't need to go on interstates. Light vehicles that don't mess up the roads like 6000lb+ vehicles. But we aren't allowed to have nice things like this due to the tariff situation, so the 25yr loophole is currently the only way.
