But are you living in a bubble?
Perhaps I am. I have no idea. All I know is we have never ever even been remotely asked for any kind of mordida. I am not saying it does not happen. We travel all over Mexico - 29 states so far - and we move around a lot and are out on the road a lot so not sitting in one place - in other words we do get a lot of exposure. We spend about 4 months each winter for the past 10 years in Mexico. Prior to that our exposure was more limited as we still had to go to work and only got to Mexico on some vacations. I was in my mid-20s in 1971 when I converted a 1964 GMC panel truck so I could more or less live in it and I spent a couple months in Mexico - as well as about 6 more months traveling the US - between jobs - out of the Navy. I do not claim to be an authority and do not claim that things do not happen. I merely state personal experience. We have encountered police - asking directions mostly - but pulled over once for red light infraction in Patzcuaro but let go immediately when they realized we were tourists - no request for one single centavo.
