Did you know there is a new Britax seat out... Yeah neither did I... Today was my first day at class for CPST. I definitely had to bite my tongue several times. One of the instructers were talking about some seats, how all seats meet the same standards and just because a seat is more expensive doesn't mean it's better.

He mentioned a new seat that is out by Britax that cost's $1500. It is a RF, FF and a booster seat. It even has it's own airbags!!! :p

Anyway, I had a great first day. I am the only person there because I want to be. There are only 7 people in my class. Two police, four firefighters and then me. :)

My guess is he's either very mistaken or a good exaggerator. No mention of anything remotely like that at Lifesavers, and even Britax would be insane to charge $1500 for a seat.

Enjoy the class though!

I had great success speaking up in my class. While the people actually instructing didn't know everything, there was an instructor sitting in the back who was very up to date. The instructors really were interested to hear what I had to say. During breaks they'd even go look things up that I had brought up, like super latch. One instructor had to dig to find a frontier to make sure that it really didn't have either lockoffs nor a locking clip. You might try speaking up once to see how it goes.
