Guarantee none of you have done this trip before

[topcarbon]

I think I am the first to drive from Scottsdale Arizona (one home) to my other home in Puerto Vallarta. The trip was wonderful and done over three days. I didn't rush the trip and enjoyed the roads which were mostly excellent.
First day was Scottsdale to Guyamus. On the ocean and a perfect 85 degrees.
Second day was to Mazatlan. Much more humid and the waves were huge.
Third day to Vallarta.

1200 miles later.

So the Z is home in Mexico for now.

How do you handle all the pestering from the time share salesman? I've been there a couple of times and it drives me nuts...nice place but can't stand everyone trying to squeeze you for a buck all the time.

Sorry, no hard feelings but I may have told you where to go the last time I was there :rofl:

I have a place in Chandler now so don't go to Mexico anymore. I'll PM you next time I'm down south (September) and see if you're up for a spin somewhere. I'm going on a four day trip in late Sept with the Arizona club....to Silver City and elsewhere, might be a bit of an old folks run but what the hell, its four days of cruising corners.

I did that too.....ended up walking away from the deposit. The salesman got paid so he was happy . Live and learn, don't buy expensive stuff when you're on medication... :rofl: :rofl:

send me a pm when you are in Chandler

btw, I manage a sales line and I know some of my salespeople can be obnoxious.

Wiil do, BTW what do you do for insurance when you go south ?

( I was po'd at the street peddlers more than the real salesmen, they were all pretty good.)

insurance is through U.S. company for the value of the vehicle. Get this, for a year, its $550. Catch is you also have to have U.S. insurance which adds another $300 per year. Still, very reasonable.

oh, the "street peddlers" are all but gone.
