Insurance Washington.

Hey everyone.

I'm thinking of importing a vehicle ( I have done this many times)

The problem is I don't think I can put this one on my car trailer due to its size and weight.

The vehicle is close to Seattle Washington.

I live in maple ridge BC canada.

Like I said, I know the ins and outs about importing/exporting. But I have never driven my purchase across.

I know the plates stay with the vehicle, does that mean that it is insured?
Is there an insurance I can get while I am in Washington ( being a Canadian citizen)
Is there an insurance I can get in canada prior to buying this vehicle that would allow me to drive it if I did but it?

Any help would be great.

If someone is in Washington and might be willing to check the vehicle out for me, or has a way to possibly transport, let me know.
