Campers with gross mass over 3.5 tons
Been a few reports of border posts in southern Mexico refusing entry to US camper trucks (not regarded as RVs) with gross mass rating over 3.5 tons even though they were previously allowed in at north...

Mexican customs might be looking at the pickup truck and camper as two separate units, the truck that will get a 180 day import permit and a cargo box that is not permanently attached to the truck and they consider it cargo and not a motor home, as opposed to a class A or C or even a small B that is fully enclosed and self propelled, in Spanish motor home is "casa rodante" (rolling home), and this can be interpreted by the individual Aduandros or Banjercito personell completely different from what we see and know.
Heavy duty pick up trucks are a hot comodity for the narcos, steel the unit use the shell or dump it and they have a disposable cargo carrier, or just plain miss information or interpretation.

That's all great, but it doesn't answer the issue that some people are having, unless you are saying people should not take a truck and pick up camper to Mexico.
It seems that if one is able to obtain a 10 year permit for their truck and camper it might solve some of the problems people are having.
