Cool Road Trip - 6,000+ k' in 16 Days

Have just returned from our family (2 Adults, 2 teenagers) tour Sydney - Mt Isa - Townsville - Sydney. Only down day for the car was our tour of Fraser Island.
XR5 Performed faultlessly (no sign of the starting issues returning - touch wood) with the exception of a (double) cracked windscreen (glad I ticked that box on the insurance!).
No sign of stone chips, so maybe to aero directs stones to the windscreen, rather than the paint. Stayed off the dirt, except for road work. Will have the car detailed as a thank you / anniversary present, just to be sure.
Probably averaged just below 8ltr/100km cruising, just a great car for this type of trip, roomy, easy to load, power when need.
