Would this be a good choice?

http://www.specialtybaby.com/sa1stsibiboc.html My DD is 5, 37lbs, 39 inches (not sure of her torso, but I do know it's shorter than her almost 4yr old sis' and she (sis) still has room in the scenera). I drive a 2003 Chevy Astro van (it does have headrests). I want to keep her harnessed for as long as possible. I really want to get a Regent, but that may take awhile so I was thinking of this seat to hold us over for a while. I don't see her outgrowing it in height or weight anytime soon. Thanks :D

This seat is fine. The top slots of the Scenera are 14.5", and this seat has a top slot of 17". So you've got at least 2.5" of torso growth. She sounds like a very petite one, so you should have years and years out of this seat.

It requires headrests behind it, but otherwise it's a great seat. A great deal for the dollar.

Thanks! We do have headrests, so that works perfectly!

There's a different model of that same seat at BRU with 19" top slots. It seems different color covers indicate different top slot measurements :confused:
