Hello...we need to get a car seat for my daughter as she is growing out of the first one. My situation first...
I Have 2003 Chev S10 Ext Cab. I realize the following allready...turn off pass air bag. Dont install in middle of front seat. dont install in the cab.
(additional thoughts...My daughter may be in a Toyota corrola back seat from time to time. Is middle best???...)
I have also read that rear facing is recommended for as long as possible and given that my daughter will be in the front seat of a truck i think tha safety is an even greater factor than normal. I have read up alot on the reputation of Britax and they seem to be stylin and with rep for many safety and other features. I dont mind the prices as long as they are definitely that much better. just saw the Safety 1st complete air i think it is called. Has anyone heard the word on these???...
Does anyone have experience/tips with a chev s10 as far as what seats make a better fit than others in this vehicle type? I am guessing seeing around the seat to the passenger side of the truck is also a consideration. So
sorry for being kind of all over the place..ideal criteria are ...
fit
safety (with pass side pick up truck installation in mind)
heavy rear-facing limit (35lbs great...40 or more even better)
heavy front facing limit
ease of use/convenience
Price is not really a big concern, and any assistance/opinions would be great..
thanks
PS i am located in Nova Scotia, Canada, just incase availability of the seat is a concern...
