Quote: Depends on where at in mexico you go. Stay close to border towns, go with a large group, do NOT drive but walk across and if possible take somone who can speak spanish.
We go to Mexico just about every year for spring break to party.
I wouldnt go down deep in mexico.
I went to boystown, and that was crazy enough.



Good to hear from ya Jose. Take care man.

no joke, boystown really showed me how sheltered we are in America

Wow this really sucks, but like everyone else says good to hear no one was hurt. And that comment about us being really sheltered in the US could not be more true. I was born in India and moved here when I was 7, but whenever I go back to visit, I really see how much of the world lives. Very rough, and ****ed up, especially if you are foreign.

I should just say if you are white and traveling in such a country always take extra precautions because people will try to **** with you. The white comment is not to be racist, please don't take it as such. Just pointing out that if you are white, you will be considered more naive, and will attract more attention in those places. Just how some of those people think.

Glad to hear you're ok.

Quote: Well everyone here knows that when you have a maxima or any nice car modded really nice then you will draw attention. They saw a good looking car and an american and said "BINGO, one born every day" The 3000 is stupid cause you can buy a computer with several other forms of currency. I wouldnt carry that much money on me period.. NEVER, I m a firm believer in guns and I still dont carry that kinda cash.

I m sorry if this sounds me but I just hope you learn some street smarts.

Proph
The thing is that she has her design studio in one of the nicest places in Tijauna, you can see a lot of nice cars in that area, bran new beemers, new trucks, etc, the thing was that they saw a nice/roomy/fast car that was "for sale" and they used that oportunity to get close steal the car without any damage to it.

The funny thing is that I ususally never have any cash on me, but I did that day and it was just my bad luck.

Oh and I'm not white guys, I'm half american and half mexican, so it wasn't a racist thing either.

Thanks for all of the support guys!

Jose.
