I am due w/ #3 in May. DS is 6 and still harnessed in a RNXT and DD is almost 4 and in a FF Marathon. We just need a little more space.
DH is a minivanaphobic and will NOT even consider one. Personally, I'd love one for the convenience. I'd love a Sedona.
The Rondo seems to be an option, but tell me if I'm missing something...
We CAN get 3 seats in my Forester, so I'm guessing that this particular setup will work in the Rondo's second seat. The third seat option will only be used once DS moves into a booster (no tethers in the rear seat) and possibly only on long trips when I need him far away from his pesky sister. We'd use it to transport some friends now and then. DS's friends are all in boosters (or nothing:thumbsdown now, so the tether problems shouldn't matter.
I just need some more breathing room. My Forester is tiny. Doable w/ 3 seats but not comfortable. We travel a LOT. I need the kids to have a little space. We'll need a bit more cargo space once we have another person's crap to haul around.
Oh, and the reason I'm looking at the Rondo is that I want to find something that is worth about the same as my used Forester (around 15k) so we don't have another huge car payment. Otherwise I'd totally get the traverse.
