Toll road price increases.........

Cars/light trucks will now pay 37 pesos at the San Miguel (Ensenada) toll booth. Rosarito and Playas (Tijuana) tolls will now be 35 pesos

That is still only about US$2 each, yes? What is the current exchange rate, ~18:1?

If you think toll prices are expensive in Baja, you'll be shocked at how fast your money disappears traveling on the Mainland as it's almost impossible to travel in most places without using toll roads.
Also I traveled the Baja peninsula for 3 months in early 2017 and then returned to Baja this January and prices on almost everything have gone up. So sadly Mexico is not the inexpensive place it used to be years ago.

I don't remember what I paid in Oct. but a couple of years ago it was $2.25 U.S.
