they say U.S. trucking companies will benefit since reciprocal changes in Mexico's rules permit U.S. trucks new access to that country.

In my travels I have frequent contact with professional drivers. When appropriate I ask if they'd be interested in making runs into Mexico. Not one has even come close to saying yes. Most of their comments are unpostable here :)

Interesting isn't it? No one is interested in making runs into Mexico (therefore no one is interested in making backhauls out of Mexico), but the Mexican drivers are "stealing" jobs.
