You just need switches for the trailer. Get that thing hopping at a light an no one will bother you.

My anesthesia school clinical site was in Harlingen Texas. From what I remember about getting insurance for Mexico is that you can get various types of policies. Some insure you for only 50 miles into Mexico, some more. I think you need to check with your own insurance carrier too. I always walked across a bridge over the Rio Grande to get into a small town to buy cheap Cuervo Gold, and parrot statues. One day a bunch of us watched some folks about 50 yards downsream take off their clothes, put them into garbage bags, swim across, put their clothes back on and they were off into the bushes on the American side. One of the folks watching this with us was a Mexican border guard.
Now that's entertainment.
Let us know how you make out in the insurance thing. I would like to know what it takes to go however far you are going.
