Interested to get more feedback on doing big trips with young ones, will start another thread for that though.
I suppose at 18 months she won't drink too much of daddy's beer :PDan

Just did the Cape this year, we had a 40L rear footwell tank.

I was looking at those boab tanks, I can't really fit one anywhere else so the footwell makes sense. Have you hooked up a pump or just gravity fed?Originally posted by Brains View Post[b]2006 GXL Prado 1GR-FE [/b]- ARB Lockers & Bar, Tigerz11 Winch, snorkle, Custom Bash Gaurd & Steps, AJ4x4 Rear Bar, Spotties, UHF, Dual batt, 33" KM2s, Custom drawers, Ext Icon Coilovers, 4" SRC Shockies, Dobinson 4" Springs, Diff drop, Light Racing UCA's, Ext SS brake lines, Driveshaft spacer, Superior trailing arms, Nitro 4.56 diff gears, DBA Slotted brakes, TRD Supercharger, Bullet Ultimate Exhaust, XEDE Dual map ProcessorComment

Anders, will be bub symbo and myself in a tent at this stage, still gotta sort that bit out.
I have a 420cm x 300cm 2 room Coleman "Instant up" tent but its pretty big for such a trip.
Thinking of investing in its little sister for this trip but happy to hear of other opinions/options.Dan
