We usually do Mazatlan to San Carlos in one long day, don't really like the alternatives, either crappy so called RV parks or a long detour.
This year, due to a broken serpentine belt just south of Los Mochis we stayed at the large Pemex just south of the city. They have a large overnight lot in the back. Lots of trucks so a but noisy. There were 4 other RVs there that night.
San Carlos to Nogales in very doable in a long day. We usually go to Ajo, crossing at Sonoyta/Lukeville and arrive at Ajo about 5:00 PM. IF you go that route note that the Inmagracion at the checkpoint closes at 4:00 PM IF you need to get you passport stamped and turn in your FMT. You can do that at Sonoyta but parking in extremely limited.
