All the old, beat-up trucks and semi's that used to scare the b-Jesus out of us when they were heading toward us?
Remember the trucks lacking headlight(s), tail lights and brake lights.
Their numbers seem to have reduced greatly.

I agree there sure are a lot of "newer"4 wheel drive trucks, bronco, toyotas 4 runners, etc. hauling families around Los Barriles these days. Of
course, there are still a fair amount of the "oh my god I can't believe that still on the road trucks", but I do believe there is a sign of changing
times and increased incomes reflected in the parking lots every where I have been in Southern Baja.Me No - 5-27-2005 at 05:58 PM
