So my spawn will be 8 in November. 52#s and 52" All leg. Spawn has low tone and well, issues. His meltdowns have become pretty managable, and I think for short rides he would try really hard. Long rides, if he naps, I don't know. My concern has been that he is kinds fluidy. As in he just kinds of spraws out, doesn't seem to be able to sit up for very long at all. He slumps and lays against the harness of his husky.
Currently he is in a husky in my prius. Over teh weekend his torso appears to have grown 1/2" So maybe 1/2" of harness left, expires in July. I just moved him up to the highest slot last Sept.
In my dad's truck he has a nautilus. He was throwing a fit about it hunching his shoulders and crowding him. I raised the wings up a notch and he seems less fussy. Oddly, he still has a 1/4" of so left in it as a harness. So I went to try it as a booster. Um, it sucks:thumbsup: The lap belt fit is awefulllllllllllll.
We also have a radian, which I was thinking of putting back in teh truck. I just moved him outboard, so it might install better. Would you feel comfortable with this child in this vehicle (2002 chevy silverado with tether) with teh shoulders over the harness slot? I am not sure how it fits in it, it is in my mom's car and she has been out of town.
I also have a rstv that my dad wanted, but I am not sure about him using it.
So I will need a new seat for my car and a new seat for the truck sooner then later.
I would love something with rigid latch, but ds wants to stay in the center of my car which does not have latch. No latch that I could find in my dad's truck (does that seem right - he has two tether hooks).
I have been thinking pro booster, monterey, special needs seat, or frontier85. Ds would love having a blue probooster or frontier, but he is pretty agreeable. He likes all of them in theory. Within 1 hour I only have a turbo, pronto, air boost, and big kid. The other seats would be atleast 3 hours for me.
So please help me.
