Which Radian?

I need to get one more Radian for the new baby/C to use. In one car the baby will be in the Coccoro (still need to order) and in the other, the baby will be in a Radian. C's absolute favorite seat is the Radian and I just don't see him giving it up easily in my car. I might as well buy a new one since one baby outgrows Coccoro, he/she will need a radian, and, even if C has outgrown his Radian by then, uh, well, not sure what I'd do since he would be about 5 or so. Anyway, which Radian to get? I have access to infant padding, so that isn't a deciding factor for me. Have no idea what "my kids" growth patterns tend to be as A & C are adopted.

Do I really need the 80? Probably not. Color isn't so much a factor for me (and there is always swap when I pop out a girl :whistle: ) Since the baby will be using it, I don't even know if the XT is going to really give that much of an advantage because of the height of the headwings. The SL isn't an issue since my car is a 2005 (manufactured in 04 I'm sure), and Radian/Britax style latches don't work well in dh's Murano. I currently have a 65 with a 33lb RF weight limit that C LOVES.

I like the plain old 65. The XT is nice, the the wings can't br used right away. The SL, I am not convinced yet.

Oh, and I just realized the baby is due on my birthday! :D

I would either get an XT and use it for C and have the baby use the 65 until the baby is tall enough to use the headwings or needs a higher rearfacing weight limit or buy another 65.
