The Frontier 85 lasts longer in harnessed mode but is shorter in booster mode compared to the 80. Which child is it for? If it's for the 10 year old and you're looking for maximum booster capacity I'd choose the old 80.
I would not buy a Frontier for the two year old as it is a forward facing combination seat.
well i have the 85 I got it because the comparison/reviews seemed better than the old 80. I like that it goes 5 lbs heavier because I want to keep my guy harnessed as long as possible.
Just curious where you're seeing these killer frontier prices at?
I have owned both and wil say that the 85 is way more compatible and easy to install from my experience.
I can install the 85 in about 1 minute rock my truck solid.
The 80 took me over an hour and still was barely acceptable.
I actually have another on the way since DH was impressed with the fact DD slept of over 2 hours and never once slumped forward.
Target has them for $237 right now if you have AAA you can get 10% off. $252.15 shipped standard.
Amazon did have them with prime, but stopped the prime on them.
I'd wait too and get the 85. I've never had a problem installing a seat quickly and solidly until the Frontier80. I despise installing that thing with a seatbelt. I found Latch to be very quick and easy, but I don't have latch in my van.
