Driving from Belize to Texas - Shortest Route?

We are planning on driving our old Chevy van from Belize to Texas in the next couple of months. We will be crossing at Chetumal into Mexico and from there, I would like to know the best, shortest rout...

My suggestion was to take the coastal route not the mountain route which everyone claims is safer. It is 100 mi longer, $100 more tolls and the danger of fog near Orizaba. See my link.
Belize scares me much more than anywhere in MX. They actually flattened my tire there so they could change it for me.
You will probably be searched and x-rayed anywhere you cross the border.
