3 in the middle row of a Durango?

[Unregistered]

OK, thinking WAY ahead here but I have a 2001 Durango with 3 rows. Currently I have to MA in the middle row. When the next child comes we are going to get a new vehicle. I really love my Durango and want another one BUT I'm not sure about the carseat situation. DD will possibly be in a booster seat(if all goes according to plan she will be 6). I want 3 rows for the flexibility but for everday use I want all 3 carseats in the middle row. Is this with at least one MA?

I can get two FPSVD in outboard. But nothing I have will fit between.
I don't know if I could get them side by side. The middle seat is tiny and I usually keep it down so my big two can get in my third row.


I've also had a FPSVD and a evenflo triumph deluxe outboard.
But I know I can't get those two side by side.

You need to play around with seats. I'm not sure how wide the Durango is, but I had three across in my Mountaineer. I had a FPSVD FF in the center with a RF RA outboard on one side and an infant seat (Chicco Key Fit) RF on the other side.

The Britax seats tend to "mesh" well together if you have a RF seat next to a FF seat. I find that the Key Fit or Snugride seem to fit like a RF Britax.

A Radian tends to work well next to a Britax seat in the same direction (so a FF MA in the center with a FF Radian outboard next to it).


You might be able to fit a narrow booster (or something like the Parkway with no armrests) outboard, MA in the center and then a RF seat outboard. You just need to play around with different seats and see how they "mesh" together.
