If you could choose any new vehicle and seats today...

And you'd magically get whatever you wanted for free, what would you get? (This includes seats that haven't come out yet but we know about).

I'd get a 2011 Odyssey in red, 2 graco Argos elites, and a graco myride

momtotwogirls · May 23, 2011

I would get a Chevy Traverse and 2 TWE and a FN85 and a Graco belogic

I only have 2 kids but I gotta have back-ups

firemomof3 · May 23, 2011

I would also get a 2011 Odyssey

For seats; Recaro Monza and a TW

carseatfreak · May 23, 2011

Oohh...good topic. I would pick a 2011 Honday Odyssey too (and 2011 pilot for the hubs!). My favorite seats to use right now are the old style MA's. I would probably stay with them for the time being (but this is our first try at extended rear facing and I hear they are shy on leg room as they get bigger). I've just not fell in love with our my rides or radian's yet... I would like to 'try' a parkway for booster.

ElaynesMom · May 23, 2011

I'd get a 2011 Ford Taurus (in gold), and a Frontier XT (85) in Livia.

krystin_21a · May 23, 2011

Land Rover LR 4. Of the three seats I have, I would only exchange the 07 Marathon for a newer version. Actually, I would get two of those so that the baby would have one when he/she outgrows the Keyfit. My oldest rides in a 2010 Frontier which we both love.

christineka · May 23, 2011

2010 sienna, multimac for the third row, a multitech, and two boosters... not sure which. I love the old style parkway!

If I have to go with only US current and coming soon seats, I don't know... 2 radians, a vivo, frontier 85 for dd1 because she'd love it, a cowmoo boulevard 70, and true fit premier? I don't have so many options because I refuse to drive a larger van.

macmomma · May 23, 2011

Love my new car I have so I just need a new seat- I would LOVE a Marathon70 in Crimson and one day I will buy one.. today is just not the day

My second choice in seats would be a Blvd classic in Shannon- I always wanted to own a Shannon Blvd but I guess it will never happen

glockchick · May 23, 2011

I'd love a brand new Suburban. No clue on the seats. I'm finding stuff that bugs me about all of them lately. Too big, no cup holders, not compatible...

I would get Abigail a taller booster, probably a PW. Other than that, no clue. Radian for the little two if they were compatible rear facing and FFing I guess.

Brianna · May 23, 2011

I'd love a brand new fully loaded Jetta, and I think I'd stick with the My Ride (unless I can have the Argo for when he's ready to FF)

alake · May 23, 2011

I will play. I would have a new Mazda 5, with a Frontier for Summer, who is 5 and Leah who is tiny, but suffers motion sickness, if she didn't would rear face her in a Radian, but most likely would get her a Frontier, both in CowMoo.

cpsaddict · May 23, 2011

A 2011 Traverse and a Boulevard 70 in Cowmoo for both kiddos.

Carrie_R · May 23, 2011

Probably a 2011 Ody or Pilot. Whichever has better 3rd row seating position layout (seems the hip room number is the same.)

Seats: I would keep my original Frontier (booster,) MR and Monterey. Get a second Monterey, probably get an Argos for 6yo (considering reharnessing him this summer,) assuming the booster fit is ok and headslump is eliminated, or else keep my ProSport -- and a BeLogic and TWE for the 4 & 2yos.

If you ask me after this summer, my answer would be a totally different vehicle. Either a Mazda5 or something with excellent gas mileage, since I won't be hauling eleventy-million kids anymore.

Starlight · May 23, 2011

2011 3/4 ton Suburban, in the pearly white, with better rims than the standard package includes.

As far as seats? I dunno. Whatever fits, I guess. I need too many of them to pick and choose what I want. lol

We have an '06 right now, w/ 2 GN's, a RF Radian, a SR22 and a backless booster. Honestly, I'd be fine with those, if I could just have a better quality booster shoved in there.

ETA: Wait, this is magically free? To heck with the Suburban! I want a new custom Conversion van. E350 (for towing power), Hi-top (so I can walk upright in the back) w/ 6 captains chairs and a rear bench (seating 9 total). All lap/shoulder, LATCH, headrests, and enough room for 2 double strollers in the back, plus groceries. Dh wants to add individual tvs w/ input capabilities in the headrests, and a Nav system in the front. If we're making it custom, and it's free, can I make it run 100 miles on a teaspoon of vegetable oil or something, with a 5 gallon vegetable oil tank, so I rarely have to fill up?

sweetfeet · May 23, 2011

An Acura MDX with a Clek Olli for my 9 year old and a Britax TWP for the 4 year old with a medical port.

Jeanum · May 23, 2011

Chevy Volt (if DH convinces me 100%

) or a Toyota Prius, Frontier85 in Livia or Cowmoo, and a Monterey or Harmony LiteRider if the Monterey isn't a good fit outboard in highback mode (the sloping rear ceiling/roofline in those cars might interfere with HBB at the tallest setting).

emtb79 · May 23, 2011

Im going to be different I want a 2010 ODY or the 2011 in a dark color so the windows would be less noticeable. I cant quite get past the windows on the 2011 yet. Also a new fully loaded Ford van for the daycare with pivoting screens so my rear-facers acan watch the movie on the ride too.

I want a Cowmoo MT for my baby in my van.

And some new Radians if they fix the Super latch problem. A couple cowmoo FR85s, and a couple more cowmoo BVLD70s.

Kat_Momof3 · May 23, 2011

I would get a Toyota Camry Hybrid in Aloe Green Metallic, a Clek Oobr in Paul Frank Heart Shades, and if Jeffrey didn't 5-step or he could fit with room to go in a backless booster, I'd get a clek olli in Paul Frank Red Scurvy

luckyclov · May 23, 2011

I wouldn't change the vehicle from what I have, an '11 Sienna, but I would get one with a power liftgate. I'm too lazy to *only* have power sliders.

Let's see...seats. I'd keep my Livia FR85 and Cowmoo MA70, but I think I'd want an Oobr for DS1. No, no...scratch that, I'd want the yet-to-be-released Kiddy booster (the taller one - Cruiser?). And also an Aton. Just to have. Because I have nothing to put in it.

MommaWhitney · May 23, 2011

For me a fully loaded with cloth seats 2011 Toyota Sienna in dark gray. For Dh a fully loaded with cloth seats 2011 Toyota Tundra truck.

Id keep the seats I have (GN in raya and a MyRide in the gray with dots print) and Id put those in the truck.
Id get another GN in Raya and a CA in Ella for the van.
Id also get 2 britax parkway boosters (one for each car) in cowmoo when DD1 starts to booster.
