Actual delivery date: 8/13, 3:40 p.m. - Factory tour not an option due to its closure.
car: E89is Atacama fully loaded. First ED, Second BMW.
Luggage: two roll-on bags, two personal bags with a large tent in one and sleeping bags in the other. We fit everything into the trunk with top down possible. :thumbup:
I will take pictures to show how amazingly compact and small these items are for camping.
No extra charge for bringing them on plane. Delta allows one free checked bag for each of us and one carry on for each, free as well and her purse, of course.
