I have just finished a like expedition...see my blog: http://blog.travelpod.com/travel-blog/trek...ica/1/tpod.html I WILL BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY DIRECT QUESTIONS YOU ASK ME. The routing is pretty much on the PanAmericanHighway, as should be adjusted according to what type of vehicle you choose. I would highly recommend to go in a small motorhome or camper, there are so many places you can visit that way! the triplog is also a real advantage to have, available from adventuretrek. Let me know what you decide and before you go, I also plan on going later this year. QUOTE(Steph @ Apr 18 2006, 02:18 PM) 
Hello Fellow Travelers!
My husband and I are "checking out" off our lives here in CA. We are lookign to spend a few years traveling and one of our first trips (after Spanish immersion) will be to drive from San Diego (where we live now) through Mexico, and Central & South America. We are looking at several vehicle options (everything from a motorcycle to a Toyota Landcruiser to an Earth Rover, etc., and would love any input you can provide on this.
We are adventurous travelers and have traveled extensively, with the last extended travel being by motorcycle to mostly third world countries. We are avid photographers and love to spend time in nature. Our primary goal when traveling is to learn about the history and culture of a place by meeting and speaking with the locals. We love to try their foods and speak their language! We tend to avoid the major cities unless there are specific sites we want to see, or we need supplies or medical care that is not available elsewhere. We are not really "hostel" types (like our privacy in our room) but also don't require 4 star hotels. Having stayed in everything from places I would not let my mother see to 5 star palaces, we are open to it all!
We are looking for input on places not to miss, things to do, foods to try, etc.
If you have been in these countries and have some info to share, please post here or email me at sstant@egltd.com. Thanks!

We tend to avoid the major cities unless there are specific sites we want to see, or we need supplies or medical care that is not available elsewhere. We are not really "hostel" types (like our privacy in our room) but also don't require 4 star hotels. Having stayed in everything from places I would not let my mother see to 5 star palaces, we are open to it all!
We are looking for input on places not to miss, things to do, foods to try, etc.
If you have been in these countries and have some info to share, please post here or email me at sstant@egltd.com. Thanks!
