This is probably a case of some prick wanting to make a name for him/herself at the agency and get bumped up. I blame the U.S. Gov. for not allowing them into the country. I mean this is the country that produced the Ford Pinto right?
This is what bugs me. Why feel sorry for them? Why put the blame on Aaron? You know about as much about this federal case as I do. To even think for a second you know jack shit about this case is ridiculous. All you and I know for sure is this is a case about Aaron and it deals with Land Rovers. Can you say with 100% certainty that the trucks the Feds seized from Aaron's shop were illegal? Were you there? Did you see these trucks being taken? Do you have some knowledge that these trucks were really illegal? The Fed's just seized some what appear according to the Internet totally legit trucks today. Why is it possible these guys had seemingly legit trucks seized, yet the same thing could not have happened to Aaron? Is it entirely impossible that Aaron had totally legit trucks seized? Is it entirely impossible that Aaron thought what he was doing was completely legal? How is it that the buyer is the victim and the seller is automatically the criminal? How do you know Aaron is/was not the victim of some criminal activity overseas? You don't.
I know if I just got my truck seized I would not say jack shit about it. And I damn sure would not say jack shit about it over the internet. If these guys ever do get around to hiring an attorney to try and get their trucks back, the first thing their attorney is going to do is tell them not to say shit to anyone, especially the Feds. But it's too late now because some dipshit pussy wanted to tell all his friends about what happened today, throw Aaron under the bus, and then talk about how to get revenge on Aaron by suing him. This is fucking problem #1 with America today, too many fucking pussies in this world, and most of them seem to drive a Land Rover Defender.
Meanwhile, down in North Carolina, Aaron is feeling about 2" tall because of all his "friends" have disowned him. But since he's the only motherfucker with any common since he's not saying shit, and he's damn sure not going to say shit on the Internet. Not saying a word about this does not mean Aaron is guilty. It's does not mean he's not guilty, either. But before people start pointing the finger at Aaron they should probably hear the other side of the story, first. And none of us have heard the other side of the story. For all any of us know the Feds are on a witch hunt.

No one in a million years could have ever predicted this. :yawn:
Fuck em. That's what they get for thinking they were above the law.
Its great how Aaron is assumed guilty and has to prove his innocence here, which could be why he hasn't chimed in and he shouldn't.
Like a bunch of christians out to burn witches.
I just read through the misery of that D90 thread. It's pretty evident that no one knows what the fuck is really going on.
However, what about the guys who are talking openly about their trucks being taken. They claim their trucks were legit trucks. So who has all these "non compliant" trucks?
One guy said his engine block number (gas motor) was "filed down and restamped". I find that unlikely.
For my sake, I hope they don't' start coming after nickel and dime importers who were stupid enough to execute "Declaration of Importer Status" documents and actually pay for a bond and STILL have stuff seized regularly.
My records? Yeah, um, er, they were right over there, the Shop Moggy must have eaten them...
So who has all these "non compliant" trucks?
A shit box that doesn't depreciate. What quality 5 speed transmission is in your DII? An R380? That's a shitbox.
