Return of Vehicle Deposit in Baja?

I for one would drive back thru Tucson and avoid that ferry and the wait to get on and off. I've done it both ways and the Arizona route is much better and faster. And you don't have to sleep on that damned ferry.

Thanks, but my questions concerned getting back my vehicle deposit, not whether taking the ferry and returning north via Baja was a great idea or not. And getting home faster isn't our aim either, (until we reach the US border, that is. Then it's a beeline for Canada: wouldn't want to get sick or have an accident in the good 'ol USA and be bankrupted by their medical system).

That said, muchas gracias for mentioning sleeping on the ferry: I had forgotten that the Topolobampo/La Paz ferry leaves at 11 pm and arrives in La Paz at 6 am......not a pleasant schedule.....so we'll drop the whole idea and return home via the usual boring and unattractive Culiacan/Ciudad Obregon/Hermosillo/Nogales route. At least I'm assured of getting my deposit back in Nogales.
You just saved me a couple hundred $.
