Well, as far as I'm concerned, I will be using it in and out for future trips SOB. The lanes there are a bit tricky, as you have to make wide turns and all while crossing small "topes" placed at angles, but all 3 of our rigs went thru without any problems. A 27' Class A without a tow, a 40' 5wheel with a duel cab pickup, and my 38' Class A with a tow. Also, its nice to have Organ Pipe National Park right near there, with camping.Re: Changing American Currency in Mex No longer by MX Fed Gov'tNo Problems at the CIBanco in San Carlos Sonora. Very nice and courteous tellers for us "Gringos" that can't speak Spanish.Re: Caught at a Pemex by the oldest trick in the booksI was talking about looking away for seconds not minutes. All I was doing was topping off, not typically filling up. It went from less than 250 pesos to 500 that quick. Back in the late 90s and early 2000s, I've known of this practice oftenCaught at a Pemex by the oldest trick in the booksWhile in Bahia Kino yesterday, we stopped for fuel and I looked away to tell our travel buddies where to park, and looked back to find my fuel was already done. Somehow, it took a third of the time to put the last 250pesos in as it did the first 250. As I remember from years back, they(the gas attendants), have a way to jump the price ahead and I think I got that.Mex 15 from Nogales to San CarlosPlease be advised that highway Mex15 from Nogales to San Carlos is full of construction. The good part is there is also long parts that are finished with great WIDE roadsRe: Class A shock absorbersWe put Koni's al the way around in 2010 and haven't regeted it. The ride is much better and no porposing on bouncy roads or "diving" coming out of low driveways. Our's is a 2006 W24 Workhorse 38' Newmar loaded for full-timing. Your's might differRe: AC will not cycleWith the unit off, go up top and remove the plastic cover. Check for dirt and dust in the coils. us compressed air to clean it out. If this doesn't change your problem, I'd change the start capacitator, maybe even use a hard start on it. They are cheap and online, like E-bay and such.Re: Batteries won't stay chargedOlder Dodge chassis have a small black box on the firewall, much like the old regulators with 2 wires. Try to cross over this box. I always carried a straighten paperclip for just such a problem. If it starts up you know what to change.Re: replace broken windowsHi Rick, I use Duncan RV Repair in Elkhart, IN. They are nation wide distributors for most, if not all the RV window companies.
