    Not sure Mexico will ever overcome this curse

    If the so called 'war on drugs' was successfull, there is a very good chance that the Mexican economy would seriously suffer. http://www.wikileaks.org/gifiles/attach/166/166337_MexicanDrugMarket_Riosv2.doc

    Merchandise into Mexico

    Perfect. That would explain why my ac unit was not an issue last time. I have printed out a copy and will have it with me next time. Thanks.

    Merchandise into Mexico

    I couldn't find a more recent, official Mexican government link to support that $300 'by land' claim. Did you find one? The official link that the author referenced only brought us back to her article.

    Merchandise into Mexico

    The official Mexican Aduana site seems to be saying that the $75/$300 per person exemption depends upon whether Mexico is entered by land or sea/air. http://www.aduanas.gob.mx/aduana_mexico/2010/Descargas/DECLARACION_ADUANAS_INGLES_18102010.pdf

    Merchandise into Mexico

    This is what the Rocky Point Times is opining on the topic: You are allowed to bring in $75.00 USD per person worth of new merchandise – this does not include your personal items such as clothing, toiletries, etc. If you have new merchandise in excess of $75 per person you will need to declare...

    Merchandise into Mexico

    A few weeks ago two of us came down with an ac unit in the bed of an extended cab truck with a truck bed lid on it. As it happened we got the red light and were pulled over, whereupon a very serious Mexican official immediately lifted the truck bed lid, inspected the contents and came forward to...

    I'm thinking that even with the extra miles through Sonoyta, given the alternate road condition, that it might still be faster with substantially less wear and tear on our truck. Thanks.

    It sounds like the best route from Penasco to Caborca would still be the longer route through Sonoyta then? Any thoughts from any recent travelers would be appreciated. Thanks.

    American police harassing border crossers (Canadians)

    On the other hand my son informed me as we were returning from Penasco on Sunday afternoon that he had left his passport at home, and so I apologized to the Us Customs agent that we only had my passport and his Us driver's license.

    Dying in Mexico ( Rocky Point )

    There is a scene in 'Gillespie's Gold' where one of the guys dies and to expedite the process of bringing the body back to the US from Mexico with the minimum amount of questions and fanfare, they placed him in the passenger seat of the old 4x4, poured tequila over him and drove him back across...
