Buy more than50 gals in Mexico... get your truck SEIZED!!!!

[kruisecontrol]

If the americans were not hiring illegals the numbers crossing would drop drasticlly. It is not as one sided as some think

why dont you guys make ur own thread about ilegals and let us discuss the diesel thing ,please stay on topic.

Update

Customs will ask you is the diesel for your person use. you say yes no problem.

IF you say no you are stupid.



The Mexican side of the border now wants all trucks with external tanks to have a permit from the Fire dept for about 1800 pesos (180. 00 @10-1)

If you do not have the permit and you have fuel in the extra tank. Mexican customs has the right to impound your truck for up to 4 days to test the fuel. If you told them that it was not Mexican fuel and it was. Kiss truck good by.

If you say it is then there is a big fine.

If they test it and it is USA Fuel then they say sorry and you get truck back.



If you get stopped and you have the permit then no problem.

I have herd of some stations filling up the extra tanks for a bribe of 20 or so $



to me it is not worth the hassle of impound and the risk of losing my truck. so when i go down they only fill up factory tank for now untill i can find the $$ to get the permit.



as of today peso was 12500-1 make fuel about 1. 90 gallon

good luck all.

I'd rather have conservatives that take us for the biggest bunch of suckers on the planet. It's great having our kids killed in Iraq for oil,

while the Bush family makes billions on defense contracts.

Well, if we didnt have oil, we would suddenly be thrust back to 1820, but without the infrastructure that made life bearable back then. In fact, we wouldn't be that well off. At least in 1820 we had whale oil. Whale oil isnt available anymore.



If you dont think oil is worth fighting for, give up your truck. Give up your car. Dont ride the bus or train. Dont fly. Grow you own food. (oil makes it possible to get food to the market) Make sure that the seeds you plant are harvested from your own plants (seed at the store gets there because of oil) Dont use electricity (some electricity is generated to oil derived fuel) (oil products made it possible to build the huge electrical plants that we have). Make your own cloths out of grass you harvest from an open field somewhere (the store where you buy cloths depend on oil products to get their inventory, the manufacturers of cloths depend on oil products to mass produce cloths, transport their product etc). Dont heat your house (any source of winter heat in the US is either directly from oil products, or depends on oil somewhere in its generation and/or delivery. Give up your computer (lots of plastic derived from oil)



If you are doing all of the above wothput exception and more, then good for you. If you are not, then you are a hypocrite.
