dixonge Posted February 4, 2022 Report Share Posted February 4, 2022 Is there a way for me to determine the total amount of tolls we will encounter coming in from Tucson/Nogales? Planning on 15D all the way... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victor David Posted February 4, 2022 Report Share Posted February 4, 2022 According to: https://www.tollsmart.com/trip-calculators/ it's MXN $2597 Never used this before, not sure how accurate, but maybe give you an idea. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

desafinada Posted February 5, 2022 Report Share Posted February 5, 2022 According to the govt site: http://app.sct.gob.mx/sibuac_internet/ControllerUI?action=cmdEscogeRuta its 1919 peso. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrod Posted February 5, 2022 Report Share Posted February 5, 2022 Interesting, and thank you to all who posted. I traveled yesterday and my three tolls totalled $335. As points of comparison, the app.sct.gob.mx site calculates my tolls to be $301; the tollsmart.com indicates $324. So, both trackers are slightly off...they may not have updated for the increases we were charged at some toll locations on Jan 1, 2022. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victor David Posted February 5, 2022 Report Share Posted February 5, 2022 Lately, I've traveled from Guanajuato to Chapala several times. The app.sct.gob.mx site is way off. For instance, it shows the first toll here in Guanajuato to be 24 pesos, which it hasn't been for at least 6 years. Others similarly out of date. Tollsmart at least is closer to the real price. Plus, app.sct.gob.mx still uses Adobe flash player. Tells you all you need to know about their commitment to stay updated. Which is to say, they don't have one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gringohombre Posted February 6, 2022 Report Share Posted February 6, 2022 As a decidedly anti big-government Conservative (see my recent posts regarding the extortionist emission testing here), this is one of the few things that is the exception to the rule (others being public safety and border control...how is that working NOB today?). On my final trip down here in 2008 from S. California (near L.A.) in my packed pickup truck with my loyal dog Mo (RIP) we first stopped in Nogales AZ to overnight at a hotel there. The next morning crossing the border with my new Temporary Resident visa and onto Highway 15, and after all day driving stopping at Las Moches, finding a great gated motel that accepted Mo. The third day of driving brought us to the home that I had rented 2 weeks earlier on a scouting trip here in lower SAT where I still live today. We came all the way on highways built by both the US and Mexican governments (tax money). I cannot remember the amount of tolls that I paid then, but the approx. US$300 mentioned here (I am sure a lot less then) does not seem unreasonable for the well built road systems, toll booths and takers (how would you like that job?) plus the safety factor. When democratic (small d) governments are voted in by well informed voters, and run correctly the system works!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The MX$2597 indicated on the map shows right in the middle of the trip...so I think you have to consider the rest of the journey.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victor David Posted February 18, 2022 Report Share Posted February 18, 2022 I traveled from Guanajuato to Chapala on Feb 13. When I returned on Feb 16, the tolls had gone up. So much for thinking they only raise tolls in January... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcstroker Posted February 25, 2022 Report Share Posted February 25, 2022 The toll at the entrance to the macro-librimento off the Chapala/Guadalajara road has gone up to 103p, a 6p increase. Can just imagine what the cost to drive to Nogales is now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Shrall Posted February 27, 2022 Report Share Posted February 27, 2022 $1,932 Ajijic to Culiacan starting at the Lopez Mateos Macrolibramiento tollbooth. More tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victor David Posted February 28, 2022 Report Share Posted February 28, 2022 Got into Chapala from Guanajuato this afternoon. All tolls went up in February, except the 22 peso one near Silao. On the way back last time, wasn't sure because I took the scenic (aka free) route. Lots of fun little towns, but slow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Shrall Posted February 28, 2022 Report Share Posted February 28, 2022 Culiacan to Hermosillo only $674. Total so far $2,606. Final leg to Nogales Mariposa crossing tomorrow. $123 more but one booth was not operating $2,729 total. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toyhauler 4u Posted March 31, 2022 Report Share Posted March 31, 2022 Just finished a trip today from Lakeside to Nogales. I am driving a SRW pickup truck and pulling a 2 axle trailer. Took 15D autopista. Tolls were 6098p (including 2 tope tolls in Vicam.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickS Posted March 31, 2022 Report Share Posted March 31, 2022 Yep, those extra 2 axles will eat you up on Mexican toll roads.... Hope you don't have to buy much diesel in the US at today's inflated prices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
