    Isuzu frame mounted water tanks

    For now I will avoid the frame mounted freshwater tank. I do need more water. I also need more storage than my rig is designed for. A 2nd spare tire would be nice. And I want to carry Kayaks. I will solve all four solutions with a TOAD. And place a extra water tank behind the driver, in the rear.

    I spoke with a Mexican national. He said the boats with the drugs come into the pacific shore south of Ensenada. And are transported inland, then across the USA border. Most of these drugs come from outside Mexico. This activity is not going on on hwy 5

    Rossmonster F550 ER type vehicle

    Are theses trucks at the limit with the weight? Seems like a F550 is not enough for all they install.

    I suppose boondocking in Baha would be much safer in groups of three vehicles. Theses criminals look for weaker targets. Three vehicles in groups represent unknown resistance to theses small criminals. They would chose a weaker simpler target. I don't believe this criminal activity is organized...

    In the high desert east of Bakersfield California is a very rural land and few land owners. The Mexican cartel moved in, forcefully bought out the land owners, with ultimatums. They built many grow farms. The California Sheriff refuses to go to this area because they get machine gun fire upon...

    I think the armed suspects had encounters more than once with someone who had a firearm and they were very skilled at killing. Peers in Mexico in those circles carry firearms.

    Would you be safe with a firearm against multiple meth infused men with firearms who had already killed Mexican nationals? I doubt a firearm protects you, unless you are trained military.

    How? Two women and a infant child went to a New Mexico park. (USA state) The child was kidnapped and the two women were found dead. So how was that safer?

    Riverside county California Sherriff deputy working for the Mexican cartel. Just arrested. The point is, crime is not only outside the border. During the arrest was found 200 lbs of meth.

    News Also mentioned; the women said it was a car jacking, and the three men resisted, then were shot dead.

    It seems the land owner was killed in the same way earlier and his body was found along the other three victims. This was a crime spree with the same criminals repeating the killings on more than one occasion. Getting caught up in something like this is not a common occurrence to fear this...
