4 hours, maybe 4.5 hours from Tucson to Peñasco using the Ajo Way which turns into 86 then left at the Why onto 85. It's the easiest way to go from Tucson. Toll Free too!
As one who travels from Phoenix to San Carlos and back, I mapped out and calculated the difference in mileage were I to take Mex 2 at Santa Ana vs. staying on Mex 1 and going through Nogales. The difference was about 100 miles + for the Santa Ana route on Mex 2. So to answer the OP's question, no, going the Mex 2 route from Tucson is only going to add significant mileage and time and put you through a VERY busy border crossing.
So... From Tucson 4 hrs Ajo Sonoyta Penasco 6 hrs Nogales,Caborca Penasco Now throw in Holiday traffic, Border Crossing Lines and 2 Checkpoints have to be
slowing everyone down. Can it be close to be the same time on busy weekends. I know the travel window of Thurs night and Tues Morn (no waiting) but for the rest of us... Thanks for the replies by the way

If I lived in Tucson, I would NEVER go thru Nogales. Ya gotta drive thru Nogales and there are toll roads and the last section from La Igriega to Penasco is narrow and full of potholes! And the Nogales crossing is way busier than Lukeville. 4 hours. Tucson to Why, Why to Lukeville, Lukeville to Penasco and you are there!
If I still smoked it would be a whole pack!!!!!!
In 3-1/2 hours????? LOL
Yeah...What's your point? LOL! That would be us!
C'mon, Chari - you don't smoke one every ten minutes on the way down!!!
Yuh Huh!
Thats why I quit
4 1/2 actually LOL
My best time from central Phoenix was 3 hours and 15 minutes. If I'm alone in the car I would probably smoke more than 3.
