Marathon 65 vs. Marathon 70 vs. Boulevard 70

I am researching seats for DD2 who at this point is a car seat sleeper. DD1 had a Marathon 65 and she was not a big fan of the seat at all so I have always kind of thought I would get a Boulevard 70 for DD2.

Does the Marathon 70 do everything as well as the old Boulevard 65? or because I have a car sleeper should I just spend the extra $19 and get the Boulevard? (I can get the Boulevard for $184 and the Marathon for $163 at Amazon because I have a 10% off code and a $25 Amazon Visa reward)

What do you all think?

I love the big headwings on the BV70 so I chose that when I needed another convertible. My son sleeps great in it, no slumping at all :)

We haven't had head slump issues in our MA70 either. But for $19 bucks I'd go with the Blvd. It has an extra layer of EPP foam.

Tried her in the Boulevard, Marathon, and My Ride last night and she seemed the most comfortable in the Boulevard so we will most likely go with that one, but I can totally see how the My Ride is a great seat for extended rear facing. I might go back to BRUS without the kids and see how it works in my car in the center seat next to the Frontier.
