In this June 12, 2013 photo, a cargo truck whizzes past on the new Durango-Mazatlan Highway, also known as the Espinazo del Diablo, or the Devli's Backbone, near the town of El Palmito, Mexico. The highway, expected to be completed in August, will change northern Mexico dramatically, linking the port cities on the Gulf of Mexico and the Pacific by a mere 12-hour drive.
