Are Americans in Mexico really thought of as "hated gringos" on a personal level?

I've been planning a trip down there for several years but am yet to pull it off.  Maybe next year.  My itinerary was going to be Mexico City - Veracruz - Puebla - Mexico City by bus.

I'd love to spend some time in Mexico. I've had friends who've done it and said it was great.
Let's bomb Russia!

Come with me! :w00t: I can't find anybody who'll go with me, and although traveling solo is preferable in some situations, I think I'd feel much more at ease visiting Mexico with a companion.

Seriously, Valmy??  :huh:

What?

Outside a few nice resort areas, Mexico is a crime-ridden shithole.

Heh, you guys realise we're not going there on vacation, right? It'll be a couple months of spending 15 hours a day in a car factory, then going back to the hotel. Maybe we'll get a couple Sundays off if things are ahead of schedule.

In a nicer place I go for a walk before hitting the sack, just to disconnect for a bit and see something else than machinery, dirt and my laptop's screen.  Don't think that's wise in Mexico, even if Puebla isn't as bad as DF or the north.

Nonsense.  I mean there are crime ridden shitholes there make no mistake but they are pretty easy to avoid.

I don't think so but I honestly do not know.  But generally I find it uncomfortable going to a place where I stick out so much as a foreigner.  Especially for a months on end like I would if I took a job there.
