Alright so part one ended w/ me eliminating the RA55 & MR65 as options for us. Part 2 is working with the CA65LX & Radian XTSL
A quick background again. I'm trying to find a seat I can install in the center seat of my second row. Little plastic hinges made this a difficult task. It needs to be used FF by DD until DS outgrows his Avenue, then it'll be passed down to him to use RF. I wanted it to last him to age 4. The crazy part is that I used to have 2 radians and I hated them so I sold them. But here I am, buying another.
The radian is the clear winner and I'll be keeping it. I've already decided so the title of this makes no sense LOL. But I wanted to share pics anyway in case someone ever wants to search for 3 across in a Ford Freestyle.
The Complete Air 65 LX installed in the center on the #2 recline, but I couldn't fit my niece's seat next to it. I didn't try a variety of configureations though because by the time it arrived I had already determined that the radian will be the keeper.
However.... I think I want to keep both seats. Look how pretty they look together.
I could keep DS in the original CA in DH's car and have the Avenue as back up (grandparents/etc). Then I won't have to worry about him outgrowing 2 seats differently and feel guilty about him being FF in one car. I was only "authorized" to keep one seat though. Help me! How can I convince DH to keep both? :-D Other than "but look how preeeetttyyy"
