Okay, i need some voices of sanity pretty please. I found a Monterey online, on clearance for $56 It's pink, but i would find another cover for it or just make DS deal with it for that price.

I drive a 2005 Sienna 7 seater. DS1 isn't ready for a booster yet but heck, it's as cheap as a TB... it could sit in my closet for a bit! He's skinny and TALL.... about 47inches and 38ish lbs (right around 40 fully dressed) -

So what are the odds that this booster will work for him? Someone come along and tell me it WON'T work so i don't feel the need to buy it! And of course, if you think i should enable away

I wish I could.. I love a bargain. I would buy it and either use it or resell it to someone.. too good of a bargain.. Sorry I am no help!

Holy crap. I'm vaguely tempted by that. Piper would love a pink seat. But we love her cupholders and cubbies in the Nautilus, and I don't have LATCH anyway, so at least her Nautilus tethers in.

But, you're thinking of buying a seat that you would then need to spend more time and money on for another cover, and then not use it. I wouldn't (I'm not going to).

I'm no help... if I had the extra cash I'd buy it up in a second just so I could start booster training DS1 on short drives. He loves pink

Well if it wasn't pink I was going to tell you you couldn't buy it cause I was going to. But its pink. And pink is annoying. Focus on the pink and remember you have no need for a pink seat.

Okay, where did you find it? I would love one for my dd...she's super long-legged and has been complaining about leg support. For that price, a Monterey would be do-able.

You can pm me, if you'd like.

Sorry.... i just pm'd solmama and told her where it was. I think there was only one to begin with! I promise though if Solmama doesn't want it - i will PM you Laurette!

And THANK YOU to the voices of reason. DS1 wouldn't dig pink at ALL!
