For some reason Mav didn’t post this in here…. 

Even if stupid policy's are directly affecting moto life? I think this thread has been pretty tame considering the amount of TAX's added to people's parts purchases, if a different party had imposed 50% taxes on Moto parts this place would have melted down.

Watch the news video clips of the East wing of the Whitehouse being torn down for the "ballroom".  In those clips that made the news months ago doing the demolition was large Volvo backhoes.  American companies Caterpillar and John Deere make these same large backhoes. Yet the administration and Whitehouse could only contract with a company using Swedish backhoes! I know someone can find and post if you want. The realities and optics really suck and no one seems to be paying attention. 

Also, I do want to say, nothing against our Swedish brethren either!

you ever hired a contractor before? You don't get to choose the equipment they use šŸ™ƒ Personally I would hope the job was awarded based on pricing and performance history to save us taxpayers $ instead of playing politics and kneeling to labor unions 1st on every topic under the sun- but that's just me.

I know whenever we do certain government or government funded construction jobs they mandate we use Building Automation parts that are BAA, Buy American Act or something like that. When I order stuff like zone sensors they have that BAA label on the boxes.

Correct me if I’m wrong but I believe the ballroom is privately funded, which is why construction continued even during the government shutdown.  That could also be why it may be exempt from certain regulations for most government work.


Regarding tariffs or just taxes in general, remember it’s only an organization problem, if we all don’t pay they can’t arrest us all. . .

People in this thread need to learn more about international shipping. There are other methods where you can minimize tariff surprises, and yes its fully legal and legit.

Nope because this place is full of a bunch of liberal cucks. Look at how many down votes I received on my post from the gays in mom’s basement. I will probably banned today as I know a handful of guys who were that weren’t libtards.  Politics need to stay in non moto is the rule correct? There’s no ā€œit’s okay as long as it’s affecting motoā€ because it isn’t. You guys are a bunch of idiots when it comes to moto (minus a handful) so your political opinion really doesn’t mean shit to me when you have no knowledge on the actual forum subject. White lives matter fuck Biden.

The only ways I know of are to send stuff labeled as a ā€˜gift’. But that’s not legal if it’s a store/business transaction. 


Using UPS standard international shipping instead of express or expedited includes the tariffs in the cost of the shipping. (At least it did 7-8 years ago).

25% Tariff: Applies to imports of Class 3 through Class 8 medium- and heavy-duty trucks and specific parts, including engines, transmissions, tires, and chassis.

Effective November 1, 2025, the United States imposed new Section 232 tariffs on imported Medium- and Heavy-Duty Vehicles (MHDVs), associated parts (MHDVPs), and buses. These duties, designed to address national security concerns regarding import dependency, are in addition to any other existing taxes or fees.

geely is a major shareholder of AB Volvo, so we're paying the chinese as well. john deere doesn't believe in right to repair, so fuck them anyway.

Look at all my posts. I have never brought up politics when no one is spewing shit. To be honest I could care less or is it I couldn’t care less about politics. It’s easy to push blame on either party and there will never be a party that satisfies everyone. But on another note it’s comical the liberal people on here pushing their views when moto is supposed to not be political…. Libs say some dumb shit it’s okay… anyone else there are rules for…. I do enjoy the entertainment.

Deere just lost a lawsuit over right to repair ($90 mil I think) and the policy is no more as of a couple days ago.
