Hi again,
I posted the other day about RF shoulder harness height - thanks to all who replied! I posted a follow-up q in that thread, but it is pages back by now. To answer those who asked, yes, my 17mo dd is in a 2005 Graco Comfort Sport with only 3 shoulder harness positions. She is fairly uncomfortable in it; the shoulder straps tend to dig into her neck because they are threaded in the middle holes, which are over an inch below the tops of her shoulders.
So -- we are thinking of switching to a newer RF seat with more shoulder harness heights to choose from. We are down to either the Graco My Ride or the Compass/First Years True Fit. I've been searching/reading the threads here and am leaning toward the TF because our dd is taller than she is heavy; 31.5 in tall, but only 22.2 lb. The MR also looks wider to me than the TF, and since it has to go next to my 5yo ds' Britax, I think the TF would be a better choice. We have a GMC Yukon and these seats will be in the middle row bench seat.
Any experience with these carseats in this type of SUV?
Thanks!! - Kathleen
