have not been down to baja in my van yet, but have
been multiple times in various vehicles...the
federales may take all of your stuff out of the
vehicle or look through it/under it/around it, but
they always tried to put everything back where they
found it in my experiences...coming back into the USA
they have usually just run a dog by the vehicle. the
only place no one ever looked was in my kyak (sit on
top,hollow)on the roof...
