    Interpreting Manual- '05 Ford 12 passenger

    Help me understand this. Maybe I'm just dense but I've never seen these stipulations spelled out in a vehicle manual before. https://goo.gl/photos/om3YCdLcDDSE8Hcn6 I hope that works, I don't have the actual manual with me. That's a screen shot of the page of the pdf of the manual. It sounds...

    99 Chevy Silverado tether retrofit

    I am trying to get our truck retrofitted with top tethers and the local dealer is being less than helpful. My dh works for a bus dealer/ service station and can probably take care of it if I can point them in the right direction. I did a few searches and came up with a bulletin number...

    Britax Secure Guard question

    I have a parkway sg that will expire in the spring. Would I be able to save the secure guard clip and use it in a frontier? It wouldn't be for at least a few years down the line. In other words, does that part expire?

    vehicle crashed into while parked

    Replace seats? I've never really thought about it before because we live on a 30mph street in a small town. Yesterday, though, some drunk driver smashed into a parked van down the street. I mean hard enough to spin the moving van around and I think pushed the parked van into a pole. We have...

    new radian harness covers...

    I despise them. I know the manual says they're required so I begrudgingly use them but I'm not happy about it. I can't (easily) get them high enough to protect her neck from harness cuts without making the chest clip too high and I feel like even though I make it tight enough that in a crash the...

    remind me- who gets the top tether?

    I'm going to start watching another 3 year old next week on Thursdays and Fridays. This will fill my van but only on Fridays. I don't want to move my dd to the third row for a few reasons so my plan is to set up two ffing seats and a rfing seat in the third row and only use the one without a...

    budget recommendations

    I am possibly getting two new daycare kids and will be in the market for new seats. I know there have been lots of new seats recently and I want to make sure I'm not overlooking anything. I'm looking to spend between $100- $150 total. I will need a convertible seat and would like the other to...

    "adequate head control"?

    What exactly does this mean? I've seen the term used many, many times even used it myself a few times. But I'm realizing I don't know exactly what it means. Is it holding the head up independently with hands up around shoulders/ armpits? Sitting with arms around torso? Sitting...

    For Sale Woombie 14-19 lbs

    I bought this approximately 2 weeks ago and it's just not working out. It was used a few times but it's too stretchy of a material for dd. The size is 14-19 lbs. I bought it from this ebay retailer. It has a yellow collar. I paid $20 shipped and I'm hoping to get $15 shipped for it but make...

    3 boosters, a RFing convertible, and an infant seat in an '05 caravan?

    I will probably (in May) be watching a 6 year old, two 5 year olds, a 2 year old, and then of course my own newborn. Right now I have a radian, a flex loc, and a parkway sg. One of the five year olds starts in May. I have three right now and I'm not sure when the other five year old will...

    going to look at '05 dodge grand caravan in 20 minutes

    Anything special about this specific model year? My mom owned a '00 grand caravan a few years ago and I drove it more than she did. I know there's 2 full latch and another top tether anchor. I'm a little disappointed about this because I was able to retrofit 5 in the '00. Anything else to...

    split bench seats

    I'm in the market for a minivan. Some of the models we're looking at have split 3rd row benches. Is this a safety concern or am I just being paranoid? My fear is that in a crash the two parts would move separately and if there was a carseat there that the safety of that child would be...

    questions re: infant seats

    I got a positive (well technically 5 positives because we didn't "trust" the first ones... ;)) on Tuesday. We've been off bc since March but we didn't think it would happen this quickly. Anyway, I've been mostly stalking this board lately but now that it's time to apply all this knowledge to...

    Star Seat being used in a van

    The preschool at my church, which I happen to be on the board of directors for, bought school buses a while ago. I then helped them find and purchase Safeguard star seats for the preschooler's use on the buses. I went to a meeting last night only to see the star seats installed in the vans...

    for sale: nautilus

    I've tried my hardest to avoid shipping this but I'm breaking down and offering it for shipping on the east coast. It's the bravo pattern. It's approximately 2 years old, I'll check for the exact DOM. I'll take $80 plus shipping. I may have lost the belly pad and shoulder pads. :o I just...
