    I am so out of the loop.

    I have a baby coming in the summer, and since my 7, 5, and 3 year olds are in a Turbobooster and Regents since our beloved Marathon expired, it's been a while since I've looked at convertibles. We're starting Baby out in a Keyfit 22, and are now officially boggled at the newer options in the...

    Radian in a Tahoe?

    Has anyone been able to get a Radian 65 installed in a Tahoe? The friend my kids will be riding with has a 2001 Tahoe.

    Small's a bit of a misnomer.

    Small will be two weeks old on Wednesday. Sure, his birthweight was slightly over ten pounds, but he's just a newborn.:crying: He was over birthweight at a week, and I took the newborn support out of his Keyfit yesterday (it's only usable up to 11 pounds). I also had to move his straps up to...

    2 Radian questions

    1) Where's the DOM and serial number? I'm probably looking in the wrong place, but I can't seem to find it on the back. 2) How can I tell if I got one with a short strap?

    Cosco 34" FF minimum?

    I can't find the manual for our Scenera--can someone point me in the direction or page info of the 34" FF minimum?

    Need dimensions (Radian vs Apex)

    I need the dimensions of the Radian 65 and the Apex. It will be going in a 2006 Pontiac Vibe, and in a pinch, we'll need a seat that will fit 3 across. My suspicion is that the Apex will be too wide.

    I told him this would happen...

    When we ordered the baby's Keyfit, I wanted to get a Radian for Big's spare seat (Little still fits in the Scenera for a spare) at the same time, while we had the extra money. DH wanted to wait. He said, "No, I promise, I'll move the seats back to the van every time, and you'll never be stuck...

    Regent in '96 Dodge Caravan

    Has anyone installed a Regent in a '96 Caravan? Did you have to use a locking clip? Long belt path or short? The install will probably be in the 2nd row bench seat.

    An Intro :)

    I've posted on the car seat board a few times, and SimplySomething made me out myself here. ;) I've posted with her on another board for a while now. I'm Lindsay, married to DH for 5 years. Our current very long torso'd children are Ian, 3.5, and Henry, 21 months. We're expecting another...

    Sienna or Odyssey?

    I have kids in higher weight limit seats, and at some point I anticipate having 3 kids in Regents. I'm not sure I understand the top tether limits thing correctly. Does it mean that when my child hits a certain weight, I can no longer use the tether anchor in the vehicle? If that's the case...

    Why not Consumer Reports?

    Can someone give me a brief rundown of why Consumer Reports isn't the best place to look for car seat info? Someone posted this link: http://www.consumerreports.org/cro/babies-kids/child-car-booster-seats/child-car-booster-seats-505/overview/index.htm I recall something about no one else...

    Which car for 3 across?

    We need to replace DH's '84 Civic. It's thoroughly unsafe for the children to ride in, and it's falling apart. Due to budgetary constraints, these are the vehicles we're considering: 2000 Toyota Camry 2000 Nissan Maxima 2001 Honda Civic 2002 Nissan Altima Of those, I'm assuming all but the...

    Configure my seats, please. :)

    While I'm playing around with car seat ideas, I'm trying to figure out how best to arrange my seats once the baby arrives. I drive a '95 Odyssey, 6 passenger, 2 captain's chairs and a back bench seat. Locking seatbelts, and no latch. There are tether anchors (or spots for them) at all four...

    Car Seats in a Pontiac Vibe?

    DH is considering a Pontiac Vibe. My 41 inch, 40lb-3 year old is in a Regent, and my 31 inch, 22lb-18 month old is RF in a Marathon. Does anyone know if either of these seats will fit in a Vibe? We also have a new baby due in May, and it's reasonable to assume that in a pinch, we may have to...

    KeyFit or SnugRide?

    Baby isn't due until May, but I'm planning ahead and car seat obsessed, so I'm asking anyway. S/he will likely be 9lbsish, and will almost certainly reach 20lbs at or before 6 months. The baby will ride in the captain's chair in a '95 Odyssey. No LATCH, so it'll have to be a seatbelt install...

    Seat strap ?

    Why aren't they supposed to be washed, what happens to them, and is there a link that backs that up? I'm getting asked why, and I forget. :)

    Recaro expiration?

    I'll introduce myself here because I don't post anywhere else. I'm Lindsay, SAHM to a 3 year old (38lbs, 39inches, long torso) in a Regent, and a 16 month old (22lbs, 31 inches, long torso) in a Marathon. Both boys, and both relatively car seat cooperative. I'm a CPS tech wannabe, but for...
