My husband and I are making the 4 hour drive with MINIBee .. bringing many of the "things to bring" (camping chairs, detailing supplies, cooler, roadside kit etc) for MOTD. In addition to regular luggage, pillows, laptop..the lists gets longer everyday...Its going to be a tight fit!!

Anybody else loading up the boot and coming in only their MINI?

 

Yes with the roof box filled!

 

Ooo..I've gotta get me one of those.. Sounds cool, can't wait to see what they look like

 

NOPE! Just me and my sleeping quarters. Now where is that kitchen sink?

 

Sweet Wagon! I wonder if they come in yellow ??

 

We are bringing a Minivan in addition to the MINI!

 

I can probably arrange that for you. Come see me at Fontana just up the hill from the general store. When you see yourself in the reflection stop and say hi.

that sounds great .. MINIBee seems to be getting smaller with each post

 

You guys crack me up.

Tight Fit


Gimme a break.... Me, my wife, and my two sons and everything we need for the weekend in our cabrio... (oh yeah, and the cargo carrier on back).

THAT's a tight fit...

 

Wow .. ya'll travel light .. I could take a lesson

 

We (wife and I) are bringing all of our stuff in our Cabrio, and MOTD follows a week spent visiting relatives in Indianapolis.

 

We have a little more room in Soulfire since we have a Rear Seat Delete. So, yep it will still be a tight fit, since there are SO MANY teeshirts I think I will have to wear 2 a day! As well as all the other stuff we *need* to bring.

 

if everything goes well the back seat will be filled with auto-x tires

 

hope this isn't a dumb question .. but, what is Rear Seat Delete?

 

Ok here are some pictures of it. It is a simple mod, we got it at http://www.rearseatdelete.com/
I bought some cheap vinyl at JoAnn's and sewed it around the plastic-just took some strong fishing line and a large piece of vinyl and sewed it on the underside....You have to take out the entire back seat, bottom piece and all (there isn't much storage under it, but you can put a couple of small things under. But the nicest thing is that you can put lots on top!

 

I carry 3 full grown Saint Bernards in the back of my MINI. Packing everything I need for a week at the Dragon is not a problem at all, and I carry a FULL SIZE spare as well as a decent sized tool kit in addition to all of my regular gear.

You can do it. use as many soft sided containers as possible.

 

the soft sided containers is an excellent suggestion!
