<DIV></DIV>>I personaly have known two people who have had their
<DIV></DIV>>car/truck stolen while in Rosarito/ Ensenada. Even If
<DIV></DIV>>I had the best insurance in the world I would not rent
<DIV></DIV>>anything that goes across the border to the former
<DIV></DIV>>murder capital of the world-Tijuana, which had an
<DIV></DIV>>average of over 400 murders per year in 1998) Some
<DIV></DIV>>were tourists who refused to divulge their pin numbers
<DIV></DIV>>were found dead in thier cars of apparent alcohol
<DIV></DIV>>overdose(forced you to drink Taquilla+smothered) . I
<DIV></DIV>>met a guy who knew someone who watched his wife get
<DIV></DIV>>gang-raped while a knife being held to his
<DIV></DIV>>throat(always camp at a REAL commercial campsite)
<DIV></DIV>>
<DIV></DIV>>Over all this place SUCKS, if you can fly south of
<DIV></DIV>>Ensenada, you are MUCH safer., Ive driven there many
<DIV></DIV>>times from San Diego....in my stupid/foolhardy years
<DIV></DIV>>

<DIV>My wife and </DIV>>I are comming out there to do the rosarito to ensenada </DIV>>bike ride in April. We would like to rent a VW Westy
<DIV></DIV>>to go down to Mexico and camp. The 2 company's listed
<DIV></DIV>>on vanagon.com are Happy Travel campers (eternally
<DIV></DIV>>busy signal), and California Campers (will not allow
<DIV></DIV>>use to go to Mexico with it). Happy Travel's web site
<DIV></DIV>>says it ok to go to Mexico, so I really want to talk
<DIV></DIV>>to them. I have called 411 and the ph# they gave
<DIV></DIV>>me(different from vanagon.com) was a residence.
<DIV></DIV>>Anyways if any of you can offer any guidance, please
<DIV></DIV>>help. I know we can always rent an RV, but it wouldn't
<DIV></DIV>>be the same!!!
