Just checking to make sure DD hasn't outgrown seat...

I've been searching, but can't seem to find this info. My DD (age 4) currently rides in an '07 Marathon, and although the top of her head is within an inch of the top of the seat, her ears are still way below. And I believe she won't outgrow the Marathon until the tops of her ears are within an inch of the top of the seat. This is correct, yes?

When any of the following happen the seat is outgrown forward facing...
Shoulders above top slots.
Weight limit is passed. (65 for your MA)
Tops of ears above the shell.

Hope that helps!

I dont know when it changed the Marathon did originally have that the shoulders could go over the top of the top slots so far as the ears were not even with the top. I know my Marathon that was dated 2006 allowed this it should say in your manual.
