Buying a vehicle in Canada and bringing it back

A friend has found a Peterbuilt in Canada that he is interested in buying. Its a US model that the owner bought and took there and had been using for a couple of years hauling freight both there and here in the US. So it should meet all of our laws here. Our question is how much of a pain is it to buy a vehicle that is owned and regestered in Canada. And then bring it across the border and get it titled and regestered here in the US. I know there are some guys here that live on both sides. If any of you can give advise I would appreciate it.
