Does anyone have one or know anything about them? We were out looking at them last weekend and we really like them. The extended or crew-cab, of course. But I tried to find where I could tether RF, and couldn't find anything.. Any ideas on where that might be possible?? I really need to try my RA and MA in it RF, but DH wants to wait until we are more serious about buying, which won't be until after we sell our house later this year(we're being optomistic about it. lol)..

Any thoughts about it would be greatly appreciated!! TIA!

There should be some part of the seat to use. It is recommended to use
Seat frame bar
Seat mounting rail bolted to the floor
Vehicle safety belt anchor bolted to the floor (not the seat)
Leg of a vehicle seat bolted to the floor

Look for some type of structural strong,unmoveable part.

We have an 04 Ext Cab. The tether point is a loop on the back of the bench seat. The back bench seat does NOT move at all and you can't force anything between the seat and the window. Took us a bit to figure it out, but now it works well. I honestly would get a Crew Cab. We are looking at them right now. They are so roomy in back. It would be so hard to have a carseat outboard. Middle is the only place seats work comfortably, imo.

Yep, I know. I checked for all of those and didn't find any. I was hoping someone had some real world experience w/it. I'll have to search some more next time we check them out..

The FF tether anchor looked hard to get to, but I guess after you get used to it isn't a big deal..

We have an '03 Silverado...extended cab. I love it. RF we tethered to the bottom of the front passenger seat... As far as FF, in the Silverado, you have to pass it through the loop and to an adjacent tether portion on the rear of the headrest. At least that's what needs to be done with the '03 and was also mentioned in my update class this weekend.
