Hi everyone...I'm in the market to buy a new vehicle. It will be to my main "commuter" car. Main people in it will be me, DH, and new LO (EDD Nov). We travel once a month to see my DSDs but usually we rent a car. But this car may need to work potential 3-across sometimes (extended holidays, summer) but we also have 7 passeger SUV so I'm not TOO worried about it. I mainly need this car to work for ERFing the LO eventually so DH won't be itching to turn LO FF due to knees in the dashboard. He's 6'0" so not abnormally tall.
DSD1: 7 yo, backless booster
DSD2: 3 yo, FF MA
(those wouldn't be my choices for these children but DH and I can't fight their mom anymore on it)
New LO: Infant bucket to get through winter, then convertible (maybe radian?)
Cars we are considering:
1. 2010-2011 Nissan Altima: I checked the 3 across thread, and successful radian installation thread and both checked out :thumbsup:
2. 2010-2011 Honda CRV: didn't turn up search results on either thread, input appreciated
3. 2008-2009 VW Passat: Had some older models on both the 3 across and radian threads but nothing about later models...should work.
4. 2007-2008 BMW 328i: Nothing found on either thread, input appreciated
If anyone has any added input about these cars and carseat installs or just your general thoughts, I would much appreciate them! TIA!
