Listen to those croakers down below if you will. The world is a scary place. GWBush has brain washed Americans to believe that we should all stay home. Funny that many US cities are more dangerous than most parts of Mexico. While we have not driven extensively in Mexico, it isn't that bad. Often very different, though. Be prepared for your suspension to get a good workout. There are speed bumps in lots of expected places and some very unexpected places. On divided highways for example. Sometimes it is hard to tell because the only paved part of what you are driving on is the speed bump. There are bad areas where hopelessly bad people do bad things, but that is not most of the country. You will find fantastic vistas and peaceful, friendly people. We have walked through areas in Puebla and other towns where cars are repaired at the side of the road from hole-in-the-wall shops, often equiped with the machine tools to make the part that you need. I've seen tie rods and control arms built to suit, almost while you wait. The ingenuity is impressive.
