Deleting and Closing A Thread
Just curious how the system works with moderators. How do you determine when a thread should be "deleted" or "closed"? I think the one marijuana and CBD oils should be closed but hey, I'm not ...

A lot of great points have been brought up here. RV park amenities, crime, fuel costs and travel restrictions all come into play.
I normally won't post anything about safety or crime. It is such a ****-shoot. It is not just the border. It not just foreign license plates.
I live in Mexico. My vehicles are Mexican plated. I consider myself a seasoned traveler on the roads of Mexico. In the last year I got ripped off to the tune of $700USD by government officials. $200 direct "request" to cross south with a trailer load and a $500 robbery at a FGR/PGR checkpoint. Corruption has always been part of life in Mexico, it is everywhere not just at the border.
Flying is ok but land crossings a no no by non US citizens? Testing needed by air but not for land? Then you look at the "over the top" Canadian restrictions (I am not Canadian, they can do what they choose). The covid travel restrictions are just plain BS. Until freedom of movement is restored, your government will become part of your decision in where you travel to.
The RGV is hurting big time with high numbers of covid deaths, lack of winter Texans and no shoppers from Mexico.
So far Mexico has been lightly restrictive which makes it attractive to vacationers living under the thumb of their leaders.
