LOL go by yourself for sure!!

Taking small children on long trips is self torture.

lol true but he isn't too bad when he's a sleep

If my son is 2 with going for a second which would make him about 3 when the second one comes along and keep the crewman for say 6yrs would the back be ok for a 9 - 10 yr old

If people survive with Camry's and corola's. The Crewman should be fine.

Remember, as they get older they sleep less and whinge more :p

Meh, long trips by yourself are awesome compared to a trip 1/4 the distance with a toddler.

I moved interstate by myself 3 years ago, travelled near 2000km in a couple days of straight driving (slept on the back seat for a couple hours).

I recently moved interstate again with a 3 month old. Only drove 4hrs and spent 9hrs on a ferry. Longest 350km of driving EVER.

so to summarise it a crewman is worth it and people prefer to take long drives by themselves as long as the stereo works
