2nd trip 2012 via auto. My reply is the same as OXXO. 700 miles to Loreto and 50 miles per hour is the average for the 14 hour drive. 75 per hour in
spots and 25-30 in those that need it. I am not one that drives fast.
Now lets talk about Tecate and those great UNION United States Emigration employees .. what a bunch of Great Representatives of the USA.. Lets save
America...
So.. After 1 hour of waiting inline to get across to the great USA, you are pulled inline with about 10-12 cars. Stopped and Instructed to get out of
your car and "STAND' here. " I said Here"... In this line with the other captives. And watch the 5 million dollar scan Mobil drive past the line of
"Captive Autos", and look for the evils that will down the great country of the United States of America.
What a disgust for this country.
The young Hispanic children where laughing. I was using words that I will not post.....Bastards. |
The Tecate guys (USA) are a**h**les

That's a damn good one...and I've peddled a bike down the peninsula
There most certainly is but one side to every story: the TRUTH. Variations of it are nothing but lies.

I too find someone faster than me to clear the cows, and move the trucks and buses to one side and then I drive behind them. If someone is in a hurry,
just let them pass. I slow to about 55 when a truck or bus is coming the other direction. Go slow through towns. Always watch for policia. If you're
in a hurry just get behind a bus.

We pulled up to the old Tecate return lane, all was going well. Two women were "manning" the booth. I was pulling my 3/4 ton pick-up bed trailer with
the 4 shocks, torsion bar, 3500 # axle with brakes, 16" ten ply tires and mean looking. "Good lookin' trailer you got there" she says. "Bombproof" I
bragged. "Secondary", she said. "Sh*t", I said.
First time they ever told me to get anything alive out of the vehicle. It must be a powerful beam that thing shoots.
Driving speed...conservative but fast paced. The camper is 8 feet wide. I slow drastically for some types and appearances of on-coming traffic. There
don't seem to be as many "crabbing" semi trucks as there used to be when there were still those concrete culvert headers right along side the pavement
south of the 28th. Cathy calls them "sideways trucks" and they don't leave much room even with their right rears kicking up dust!
