I contacted Manchester with the model of my tank but was told that Manchester no longer makes that model. They show similar ones but the mounting brackets are different than on my existing tank. I contacted Newmar to see what they say and said they might be able to get one for about $2300.00 .. Manchester's price for tanks of similar size (but wrong mounting brackets) is less than $500. Has anyone else run into this problem?Getting a TIP for a vehicle with a Salvage titleWe would like to use our 2007 Subaru when going down to La Penita this winter however the car has a "Salvage Title" Will this be a problem at the border when getting a TIP?Re: PICKUP TRUCKS DENIED ACCESS TO MEXICOI'm wondering if my Ford 350 nine passenger van with a gross vehicle weight of 8700 pounds will have difficulty getting a TIP. I took it to Mexico last year with no problem but if there may be a problem I'd rather know before I get to the border.Re: Border crossing during HolidaysWe'll be crossing at the Columbia bridge and may wait a day or so after the holiday just to avoid any delays.Border crossing during HolidaysAnyone know if Mexican border offices maintain regular hours on Christmas and New Years or do they work "holiday" hours?Re: Thread for weight issues this season for F250 + trucksAnyone heard of any problems getting a TIP for a Ford E350 Club Wagon? ..GraydonRe: TequilaGood idea BriansueRe: FMM onlineSlowyiturn.. We too cross at Columbia but try to get there as close to 8:00am (their opening time) as we can. This year we're trying something different.. we're leaving the motorhome at home and just driving our car down. We've rented a casita in La Penita. Because we travel with two dogs and don't want to worry about thieves during the night, we're going to check out No-Tell motels.Re: FMM onlineGetting your FMM on line can't save you that much time if you still have to stop at the Mexico Immigration office to get it stamped. And you still have to stop if you need to get a TIP for your vehicle(s)
