If you completely freewheel you could wind up in Cabo and have to fly or drive all the way back to Ensenada to get your TIP (vehicle import permit) so you can take the ferry to the Mexico mainland - as happened to a guy I met.
Some planning is definitely required is my point. But yeah - I freewheeled a lot of it, which is a lot easier in your own car where you can just look at a crooked road on the map and decide to go. Obviously you also want to make sure you're not in cartel country or something. So again - some planning needed there too.
It's like that quote by Eisenhower about that plans are worthless, but planning is everything.
