Well I do alot of work along the Mexican border. Im in McAllen Texas right now and wanting to cross over to get some diesel before I leave. So has anyone had any problems getting diesel in Mexico. Also can anyone point me in the right direction either online or directions where to find a PEMEX station across the border. I have seen a few people on here from around the Valley. Ill problem cross right west of here by 23rd Street.

Make sure your insurance works across the border. Most do not.
Even though its a short trip, you'll be in a deep hole if anything happens while there.
The Mexican border towns are in a really *****ED-UP state due to all the drug traffic and cartel infighting. Personally, I would avoid them.

Well I just got back from Mexico. Got diesel for $2.14 a gallon. Also 4 dollars and get into Mexico and 5 to get back across. So $61 to fill up, plus $9 is 70.....Yeap Ill be going back. Since I work down here alot Im going to invest in a aux tank. It was a nice size station few 18 wheelers filling up there and bout 3 miles inside Mexico. But if I end up onside of the road yall can tell me "I TOLD YOU SO!":D

Well I've been crossing thru Tecate (south of San Diego, east of Tijuana) and paying about the same as you. This is off topic but there is a new law forbidding all vehicles with windiw tint to cross the boarder because of all the violence. So I might not be heading down for a while.
