    crash, insurance, and replacement?

    I had an accident in my car on my way home from work before thanksgiving, My son was not in the car at the time. The car is still in the shop and probably will be for a couple more weeks. The door next to the car seat was not damaged and the airbags did not deploy. I was hit in the right front...

    grandparents vs carseat, it never ends

    I haven't had a run in with my dad in a while over the car seat, so I guess it was due. I got a new FPSVD for them since Andy had outgrown his touriva. I showed him how easy it was to install in their pickup, and he left it in there for a while. This past weekend he must have decided that Andy...

    anchors in vehicles- need LATCH manual consult

    I have several questions about using outboard anchors for a center install- first, an office mate just had her FPSVD installed at the fire station, and they installed it rear facing center, using the outboard anchors on each side (no anchors in the middle). Looking at the car manual, 2003 toyota...

    misuse of latch

    I know I've ranted on here before about my parent's inability to install a carseat correctly. The consensus last time seemed to be to just get them a booster and hope they never have to use it (they'd only drive andy in an emergency). He's outgrown the top slots on the touriva they have. I was...

    regent installation in aztek

    When I got home, the sahara regent was here. I wanted to install in the center position in my 2001 pontiac aztek. Checked the car manual, the regent manual, and re-read the posts here about the installation- I was ready. I took out the touriva and was horrified by the crumbs that were under the...

    sahara regent should arrive today!!!???

    Wednesday I called dreamtime baby to cancel my regent order- I'd recieved email that the expected arrival date had been moved from 9/07 to 10/07, and the person I talked to did not think they would get them in any sooner. Then, this morning, I get a UPS email that my dreamtime baby order has...

    cancelled my regent order

    I just cancelled my regent order from dreamtime baby, so I won't be getting the babytv $50 rebate.:( THey've moved the availability date from sept 07 to oct 07, and that's going in the wrong direction. Not mention, they'd already charged my credit card for it! They also charged me shipping...

    need next carseat after infant seat

    A coworker is looking into new carseats for her 8 month old son. He's 19 lbs and about 28" tall. The vehicles they'll need seats for are a 2003 toyota 4 runner and a 2003 F250 extended cab pickup. She currently has him in a graco snugride. I suggested marathon but she's concerned about the fit...

    split bench seat and center position

    I have a 2001 pontiac aztek with a split bench seat in the rear. It's got latch at each outboard position, but none in the middle. I have my son in a touriva right now, passenger outboard, but would like to move him to the middle of the car for safety. Is it safe to put a seat over the split in...

    need idiot proof seat for grandparents to use

    I've mentioned that andy is outgrowing his carseats. I've replaced two of them (we have three vehicles), so still have the two scenera/tourivas- one in my car and one at my parent's house. They seldom use it, and I'm terrified to think of the few times they've used it without me checking it...

    new radian install in 2000 ford f250

    I just got my new radian from amazon. I took the britax galaxy out of my dh truck, it's the extra cab or whatever it's called, with the small doors you open once the main door is opened to access the rear bench seat. There's no tether or latch. The front seat has a center console that is...

    so many people ignorant about car seats...

    my younger sister took on my niece's four kids when the state removed them. She's done a world of good for them, giving them values and love and discipline for the first time in their lives. The youngest just turned 4 and weighs around 28 lbs. She has had to get a adifferent car so she can...

    new regent installed

    I just recieved my new britax regent from babyuniverse (oddly, it no longer appears in their online products, and I just got it monday- I wanted to order another one). I read the manual, and every post on here I could find, and was prepared to have problems because it all seemed so confusing...
