RE: Going Through Navojoa, Sonora
Remember, when in doubt, just follow a big truck through!

RE: Going Through Navojoa, Sonora
To us, it's coin toss.
It takes a little longer to take the truck route, but it's easy as long as you watch for the topes and the speed limit. This is the "official" truck route that starts north of town at the big Pemex with the light.
Through town? The alternate old bus route starts just after the bridge going south, and is quite bumpy. Remember, the bus/truck route through town is on the INLAND side, it's bumpy, but has few lights.
The one time we were pulled over, we were in an older RV that didn't have shoulder straps. The cop asked, saw the lap belts and sent us on our way. After that, we used the official bypass.

RE: Toll road to Mazatlan
Happy to be of service.
We drove the Maxipista probably 15 years ago two weeks after a big hurricane crossed right over it between Cuilican and Mazatlan. The damage to the buildings in the area was amazing. Even the kilometer markers along the side of the road were blown down flat in areas. The road, however, wasn't bad. The biggest issue was where it went to one lane because of the water undercutting the road.
Norma has been probably two weeks ago, things shouldn't be bad now at all.

RE: Toll road to Mazatlan
According to the news here, the Maxipista was closed for several hours due to flooding from Norma and reopened the same day.
Acapulco is another story.....

RE: Semana Santa
I don't have a cell phone, but he does. When he gets a pic on his phone that I want, he emails it to me. I download it onto my computer and it's done. Easy

RE: VIP question
We had our RV insured through Progressive. They gave us all of our US coverage in Mexico except for liability. We had to use it once, and it was absolutely painless. They reimbursed for the window replacement we had done in Mexico, then covered all the interior and exterior damage and replacing the window again with double pane glass.
Something to look into.

RE: VIP question
Sounds like a great plan!!! You should have no problems at all getting the permits, insurance and be legal for both of you to drive everything.
Keep us posted when you go!

RE: upcomimg solar eclipse
Easter is March 31 next year, so at least the Semana Santa crowds will be gone.
