Mexico Trip
All (especially those of us along the Mexican border),
Has anyone taken their Jeep to any trails down in Mexico? Or can point me to a web site or two? Something away from the border towns... Thanks. -- Michael White "To protect people from the effects of folly is to fill the world with fools." -Herbert Spencer |
Re: Mexico Trip
Hi Michael,
Have a passport for going further south than Ensenada or San Felpie, Baja California, I don't know what is for the main land. Know how to survive a hundred and twenty heat when their Premix fouls your fuel system? Know the proper technique for bribing the Federales. Know your firearm is illegal, but you may need it.

Re: Mexico Trip
Bill,
Thanks for the info. I figured on the passport, and I've dealt with the bribes to the locals at the border towns. The firearm is an interesting conundrum that I'm still noodling. Didn't know about the Premix gas (never needed a fill-up there) - any solution to that one, short of hauling a 50 gallon drum of gas in the back? Or are there other brands available there?

About that firearm.. DO NOT TAKE IT OR ANY AMMO ACROSS THE BORDER PERIOD! Unless you actually want to be in a Mexican jail for a few years. http://www.mexonline.com/mexguns.htm And the laws on hunting, the ONLY legal way to bring a firearm into Mexico. http://www.mexonline.com/huntmex.htm My opinion is if a place is so dangerous I'll need a weapon I simply go somewhere else. Economics will eventually prevail. .... PMEX is the oil industry in mexico, it's a state run monopoly. Read here. http://www.mexadventure.com/Mexico_Fuel.cfm Head the warning about bringing spare fuel filters. It's not as common as in the past (especially if you buy off the major roads) but get back in the boondocks and you could get a tank of crapoline. A couple cans of Octane booster/Water eliminator is also a good idea. .... You should also pick up vehicle insurance for Mexico. Most US plans will not cover you there and the Mexican insurance is very helpful if you get in any altercation. AAA can fill you in on this. .... Not to be too pessamistic, this applies to certain third world contries I've been to. If you park somewhere and will be away from your vehicle consider taking the primary ignition wire with you. It won't protect against vandalism but it can prevent someone from driving off with your wheels. ...sidenote.. some thieves carry a spare now. :/ -- DougW |
