One question when shipping a vehicle to the islands (Kahului, Maui actually). Are there any additional fees that Hawaii charges when bringing a vehicle over? I know that California has some additional charges for certain vehicles (non 50 state emissions legal type of stuff, older diesels, etc.) and am curious about it.

We'd be bringing 2 '02 Xterras and a modernized '67 Impala (feedback fuel injection, cats, the good stuff). Don't want to walk into a huge fee/fine for not buying something 'on island', you know?

Not talking immediately, but in about 3-4 years. The wife will be going to the French Culinary Institute in NY for a year first, then the islands. It's a timeline thing.

That superferry sweetens the pot some, as 4 wheeling on one island alone would get to me. Especially since I'm used to Moab, Colorado, Arizona, etc.
