Look at this red Ford Raptor with Thai license plates, parked at a hotel. Pretty tough-looking, right? Thai car owners love bringing pickups to China - the Raptor has plenty of power for any road, highways or mountain roads. And pickups can carry so much luggage, perfect for family trips. Hotels in Yunnan are used to foreign cars, they have dedicated parking spots for them. **Pro Tips:** When driving a pickup truck to China, make sure you check the traffic restriction rules, many city centers don't allow pickups, so plan your route ahead of time. Also, don't carry stuff that's too tall or too wide in the back, otherwise the traffic police will pull you over. Yunnan has a lot of mountain roads with sharp turns, make sure you control your speed, drive safe. For gas, regular 92 octane is fine, no need for premium.
