There's nothing these vehicles don't do well... a group of us went backpacking on the long weekend. Originally the person organizing the trip planned for 7 people plus gear in my vehicle, wasn't sure how well that would work, but 2 people cancelled so we had 5, making it amazingly spacious. (though the trip organizer still insists there was lots of room for 2 more people with packs)

Five full packs for 3 nights, all fit behind the back bench, leaving lots of room inside to stretch out.

I looked in to the back while driving and there were 3 people asleep, all with room to stretch out... what other vehicle can do that?

And waiting for the slower members to return to the vehicle at the end allowed wonderful relaxation

And as for where we actually went...

(and a thanks goes out to ruminante for their pics to post on here... (Their Delica is still in transit... soon to be here)

:-D I could have put other pics of me in there... but I figured I'd leave you all guessing ;) (not that there aren't at least 3 people on this forum that do know what I look like...) of course I could leave you guessing as to who ruminante is in those pictures too ;) (the other back of the head? one of the other 3?)

ok... I'll be nice... it probably wouldn't help you identify me anyway... but I'm the guy in the foreground here

The falls in the background are Takakaw falls in Yoho Park, we camped there the first night, and then hiked to Yoho Lake for the second and third nights, we did a day hike on the second day over to Emerald Lake (the lake in the picture above)

and I'm not THAT tall... (6'2")
