theyre plenty legal to drive in the states. why do you think all the highly sought after nissan skyline was brought to the US as an r35? it wasnt because it was RHD its because people were importing them and driving them and they were never cleared by the gov. due to emissions equipment that the cars lacked because japan doesnt require all that emissions stuff we do.

People in the military, stationed overseas buy vehicles there with RHD. However, it is very rare that someone would buy an american car overseas. They would end up paying MORE for the vehicle!! However, if they were stationed overseas for a LONG time and wanted a good truck, then they might buy one and take the hit.

I'd love to see the build sheet. It was probably made in Canada, as they are known for doing things backwards once in a while in the great white north. LOL JK

The only places that have right hand drive as they drive on left side of road in Europe is England. Rest of Europe and Scandinavia drive right and have left hand drive. This is typically a British influence thing, such as Australia, Hong Kong, and some reason, Japan. Don't know about African continent as I have never been there, but if they do, it would be a former British colony.
