Anyone here taken a road trip into/around Mexico? Since both vacation plans for this spring (Puerto Vallarta & UK + beyond), we're thinking of extending a trip to Texas a bit and renting a car and heading south across the border. I found information on stuff like the legalities and getting through custums, yadda yadda.
Few things I had a hard time finding were road conditions - I understand that most of their roads are not what I'd be used to. We'd be going from San Antonio, across to the Pacific coast and possibly going as far down as Mazatlan. I'd like to drive along the coast, so I'm not sure how the roads would be.
Also, do you know gas prices are in comparison to the States? I couldn't find any new information or an approx price per liter. I know the price is consistent throughout the country courtesy of the monopoly on gas stations.
One other thing - anyone have any toll prices? The only site I found was all in Spanish. I just hear they're "pricey."
Anyhow, any info would be great.
