2 seats + adult in Chevy Equinox?

Unregistered · May 28, 2016

An urgent family matter came up where my family and I will have to drive from TX to MI with only a 2008 Chevy equinox and we have 2 children in car seats. What seats would work with a forward-facing preschooler (@44 lbs) and a rear-facing infant while leaving room for a husky adult to all fit in the back seat safely? Time is of the essence but money for the seats isnt a concern.

What seats do you have already?

I think it'll be a really tight fit, no matter what the seats are. We have Equinoxes for our work vehicles, and by the time I install two car seats in them, there's barely room for large child or very small adult. You might have luck with Radians, or one Radian and one other seat that would puzzle well. If you must drive for the trip, is there any way you could rent a different vehicle? Or have one adult fly to your destination?

We successfully installed a Chico keyfit passanger side, a forward facing Radan middle and had barely enough room for another forward facing Radian. We also had to recline the seat and twist the seatbelt stocks to get them in tight as the seatbelts are forward of the seat bite. It was a 2011 Equinox. I am not sure if that helps any but thought it was worth mentioning.
