For those of you interested in travel to Mexico, in my case San Carlos
where I spent last week...here's a helpful hint. Do not cross into Mexico
at Douglas, AZ...the road is beyond rough for the first 20+ k's in Mexico
and as soon as you think you must be getting close to Highway 15, take
notice, you aren't, you're in the mountains !

Outside of Benson, AZ heading south towards Douglas, out of the corner of
my eye, I did see an original paint Royal poking it's nose out from between
a house and some shrubbery ..It looked healthy enough, anyone know who owns
it? Just curious....

It's late but there may still be time to have Santa deliver those GMC parts
for Christmas :)

Mike currently in NM


Life is too short to hold a grudge; slash some tires and call it even !

I always love it when the cameraman is shooting from above the truck.

How come the cameraman could get in position before the truck? Did he drive a Jeep??

Keith,

I reckon he walked, which was probably faster than the truck.

They should mount an excavator arm to the front of it. Then they could have moved a few boulders out of they way as they went along.
