Those of you who, despite all signs and indicators to the contrary, continue in this fallacy that RV'ing is in DECLINE in Mexico please post here just one unassailable citation of FACTS, Numbers or a study that backs up your contention.
While Rv trips to Mexico are not what they were in it's high-point hay-day, it is INCREASING and has been increasing for the last two years (counting 2015 as one of those years)
By definition then it is NOT in Decline. It may not be what it was or the location where YOU winter may not be full but that is anecdotal evidence that is too local to be of any use.
I also think some of you misunderstand the difference between Inflation and normal cost of living rises.
Cost of living increases over time with or without inflation as wages and per capita income rises. This is a global truth it happens in every country. THE LAST thing you want to see is prices go down over time. That would mean you were in a Depression.
I find the problem with these discussions is that terminology is not well understood especially in Economics and misused. Leaving a totally wrong picture.
