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.

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.

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?

Thanks.

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. :/
