I'm going to cross at Tijuana and am getting my paperwork together for a departure in mid-Ocober.

Will be spending the winter in the Sea of Cortez and want to have the car available during that time.

I am also considering a drive to Panama in the Spring, so would appreciate your insights about northern mexico.

I have purchased Mexican insurance for the car, gotten my visa (good for 6 months) and have registered the car and boat for import. Are you aware of anything else I should do before crossing the border?
