I need a new seat for DD in my dads 4dr Tundra. She's thisclose to outgrowing the MA by weight, RF. BRU has the triumph65s for $112 with a trade in. How are these for RF bigger kids. DD is 34lbs, 37in, 12-13 inch torso.

I have an EFTA (which is I believe the same shell as the Triumph65). My son is 39", 36 pounds, and has a 15" torso. He fits with 3-4" of shell above his head. If I had the 65, he'd be RFing still as he would easily still fit. The seat has tons of RF leg room too, which makes it nice for the bigger kids. And it installs really upright. I LOVE that seat.

We have one as a spare and I happen to use it in our car yesterday and took some pics of DD. She is 31lbs, 34.5"(?) and 12" torso height.
Here are the pics from yesterday (please excuse her blankie hanging out of her mouth, she sucks on it when she's tired):

And from a few weeks ago after we first got it and had to try it out:

She seems comfy in it, decent leg room and probably about 3" or so of shell above her head still. My only complaint is the buckle presses into her stomach. I doesn't seem to bother her though. It's kind of hard to see in the pic, but the buckle kind of comes to a point at the top and presses in.

It's a little difficult to get to the tabs to loosen the harness straps in my Santa Fe, but not terrible.
Okay, I lied I have another complaint, the latch straps are short making it a bit difficult to tighten because you don't have much access to pull. The install isn't too bad though otherwise. We got it since it seemed to be the most grandparent friendly as far as adjustment.

It's still in our vehicle so I can get more pics if you'd like :thumbsup:
