I'm trying to convience dh we should get one and it isn't working. ;) I've done some searches but haven't found very many.

Yes, I said I was going to wait to see it in person but with the used ones for sale in the color I want I'm so tempted to buy one now.

It would be for Jacob right now but would be passed down to Benjamin down the line. Right now Jacob is in a prospect but even with it the shoulder belt isn't in the right place.

I'll see what I can get tomorrow... maybe DS (almost 11 and about 56.5 inches) won't mind modeling in our PINK Frontier, lol.

Judi has some of her DBK in it somewhere.

It's very impressive.

Ok, Tyler is 67 pounds, 54" tall, 18.75 torso height. He is just over the height for the straps.

Here he is in the booster.

And here it is it the tallest setting.

I am 5' 7", if my butt was smaller, I would fit.

Not a big kid, but here I am in the Frontier with the headrest in the highest booster position! I'm 5'7 and 120lbs. My hips fit, but I'd need a deeper seat for adequate leg support! My shoulders are just below the belt guides (which go up to 24").

Thanks both! Latia I did see your picture! VERY COOL! I think your butt might be smaller than Jacob's though! lol

Wow i cant believe how high it goes up. We might be down sizing and i was thinking of buying one maybe 2 of these.

Judi- do you know how he fits in the Monterey compared to the Frontier?

Yes! Here are pics of him at Lifesavers Conference. Not in a car though.

Thanks Judi, I cant believe how much more room he has in the Frontier in booster mode. I think i will be getting it even if i have to use it in booster mode for my 11 year old then can pass to my 7 year old and depending on Colton can pass to him although he is only almost 20 months and hope to RF him till 3 or 4(wishful thinking) :D

It has a 9 year expire date right?(cant remember were i read that it is 9 years or maybe im wrong) is that for the harness as well? or just booster?

I want one for me now, so when I ride in the backseat once a year I can sleep. :ROTFLMAO:

If they would have taken the one little screw out at Lifesavers, letting us put it in booster mode, I would have been sold then. We thought the Monterey was the tallest, so I was going to buy that, when Tyler was close to outgrowing to pre-adv Regent. Now I won't. The Frontier measures 24" to the belt guide. If my butt weren't so big, I could fit. I fit everywhere else!

My 8yo niece @60lbs. Not sure on her torso or overall height. Once installed she has about 1/2" of growing room in the harness. Normally she rides in a Regent and we just moved her harness up to the top slots since they we even with the 2nd to last slots.

Man that thing is tall. I wish I could justify the cost to use it in booster mode only for DS. I don't think DH would go for it though since we wouldn't be able to use the harness at all. DS is in a Husky now and has almost maxed it out by height.

There are pics in my album titled Michael's carseat pics on www.myspace.com/carseatsafteynut (to lazy today to post them on photobucket and upload them here! ;-)

I love the seat!
