Well, at least not with 2 urchins in back. You need more space. The 9K is a fine road car, but not necessarily ideal for family tripping needs.
My daughter and I did a 2500 mile trip in my 9K and all her stuff in back. Except for a failed PS pump (replaced in Indy) all was well and we averaged 28.5 mpg, mostly running 80+. Then she came all the way back to NH solo from the left coast 16 mos later. But would not do it with wife and little kids in back, unless all are proven road trippers. And the car was REALLY solid.
