Good road, we were at Sharis 27th October smooth sailing...Headed back out there tommorrow.sumpin about that place!...shari - 11-14-2013 at 07:56 AM
the road is now a dream come true! Not one pothole and it takes about an hour from Vizcaino. They are still putting the lipstick on it, lines and
spilling paint around but it's nearly done.
A big sneer for all those nay sayers and non believers that thought the road wouldnt be finished soon!
there is still a minor sand dune before the turnoff to Asuncion so try not to drive 90 MPH!Russ - 11-14-2013 at 08:39 AM

Shari, I only drove 80 on that segment. The road is perfect! Come and get it before the first pothole shows up.

Next week! Hopefully the CA border people will not take my firewood this trip and we can have a big bonfire and roast s'mores BajaRat - 11-16-2013 at 10:10 AM
Hate to be a party pooper but............
Rolling at fifty five is one thing, but rolling at 90 is almost certainly fatal acadist - 11-16-2013 at 07:01 PM
It took 9 hours but the front end of the Bronco is ready for Bahia Asuncion, Baja Sur, Mexico. I hope I have enough energy to do the rear shocks and
mount the hitch tomorrow, I don't remember being this tired and sore after working on a car. The shop wanted almost $800 to do the shocks, spent $370
and got 6 shocks, radial arm bushings (very needed), sway bar bushings, wiper blades, and a power bar with three plugs ("90s car, only has one place
to plug in for power). New hitch receiver was $200, bought one at the junkyard for $50 and a quick powder coating and it looks brand new.BajaLuna - 11-18-2013 at 11:13 PM
the road to BA is AWESOME!!! Drove it last week. Now when one drives it you can take the time to look at the scenery instead of having to keep your
eyes focused on trying to dodge the potholes, man that road was grueling to drive, but not anymore! Yayyy!
