Lots of traffic heading south


Just got back from driving north from near LA Bay turnoff to San Diego The traffic heading south was the busiest I have ever seen. Lots of trucks, convoys and campers. I didn't think semana Santa was for another couple of weeks.

We drove from TJ to La Paz last Friday, left 7:30AM and rolled into LAP 2:30AM. Took us an hour to pass through San Quintin due to traffic congestion. I thought there was a inspection or accident causing the delay but turned out to be the parents waiting on the street to pick upi their kids :(

Road conditions were good up to Mulege. There are 2 detours to dirt each being several KM but well packed dirt and no issues for cars.

Right after Loreto, there is an area of rock slide that stopped traffic for about 30 minutes.

The 6.2L Ford engine makes a big difference in power compared to the 5.4L - Wow. Passing semis and going up hills was a breeze and seems to deliver a little better gas mileage.




Make it a Great Day!!
