Shipping A Four-Wheel-Drive Truck or SUV to Germany? Make Sure It's LEGAL!

I consider myself someone that does a lot of research about the area we are moving to.  I am not usually surprised by anything.  When we found out we were moving to Germany we searched everything we could about what is allowed or not with our vehicle. Was it too wide for the roads? Gas will be expensive.  Tinted windows were fine, roof racks were fine, we don't have a lift kit or other modifications on our vehicle, and we just purchased new tires to get us through any snow storm Germany wants to throw at us, so we figured we were golden!
