I appreciate the insight you offered. We had decided to get the loan via the bank back home because we figured it would be less of a hassle than dealing with a bank here. However, it really was a hassle to secure the loan via the US bank and even worse to actually get the money wired over here. I'll take a look at the registration card and see about scanning that to see if it is acceptable. The purchasers of the vehicle are in a similar situation we were in when we bought.
