The Robbo Clan Wagon

[robbo0001]

Found some mud and water in the bottom of the air filter housing after playing at Glasshouse, over Easter.
Was weeping through the silicone "blob" that had been squeezed into the filter housing drain hole.. replaced it with a new silicone "blob"

Installed a rear anchor point for third booster seat...3 x kids now happily travelling in forward facing baby seats ,and 1 kid in a booster.

Fun times....yep, thats 4 kids asleep, at the SAME time. (miracles do happen)



Taken while bouncing through Mt Mee.
Quietest 4 hours my Missus and I have had, for at least 2 weeks.

Currently looking at a decent rear bar with ability to fit tyre carriers at a later date...fingers crossed.

Kids love the "Troll", and thats all that matters.

Nice one mate...... it amazes me how kids are able to fall asleep no matter how much they get bumpd about, mine are the same lol

New MCC rear bar fitted last Friday, pretty easy install. Didn't worry about getting tyre carrier(s) as the Robbo CLan is quite afew yaers away from touring.
Just wanted some extra protection, still maintain the rear tow point, all the LED lighting works well.

Pretty stoked with it....and the Missus still hasn't said anything.

Is that because the missus isn't talking to you anymore??? *L*

Looking good Dave

Haha, nah I installed the bar at work.....she watched me wire it up at home in the shed, with the kids.

She said she likes the rear lights, but hasn't said anything about the bar don't think she has noticed.

If she has,I am sure I will pay for it....soon.

Love the car mate and setup. How do you go with taking the 4 kids out. I got 3 now with one on the way.

[robbo0001]

Mate they all seem to sleep well in the car,2 older kids at the back....two bubs in middle rows.
Gotta feed the kids in over the top of the rear seats, into their boosters, but the older kids love it, think its part of a game.
Travel no worries.
Bigger problem is prams. We still have two, so I can get the double pram in the rear boot (just)....rest of the gear has to go on roof racks. Next big day for the Clan will be a day at Bribie with all of em....be "interesting" to see how it goes

Do you carry a fridge?

[robbo0001]

Nah mate, not at the moment (cost, primarily). We do take a 40 litr esky, on the floor in front of the middle row.
When we do get a fridge, it will be mounted on the roof cage whilst driving, powered by an anderson plug at the rear of the vehicle.
Will pull it down, when we get to where we want to go.
The only way I can get a fridge out with us.

In a few years, it will be mounted in our 6x4 trailer and dragged along with all our other gear, if we ever get to go camping.

A big "Thank You" to Snicko for the quick delivery of the attached rear door sticker....first time in my life I have managed to attach one of these, without stuffing it up.
Stickers normally go to shite really quick, in my hands...so happy this one worked out well.
Thanks again mate....
