If you have a 2-3 year old, what is he/she riding in in the car?
Rear or forward facing?
Do you love/hate the seat??
If you could have something different what would it be?

DD is 2.5 and rides RF in a ProRide. She loves it, I love it. I have a thing about SIP since she's right by the door.

It doesn't offer the best legroom, but she's never really known any different. I'm getting a TF today and I may trade it out for the rest of winter (jeans + boots + short-legged thing = a hard time getting buckled in) LOL

J is 2 years 3 months riding RF in a MyRide. I love his seat but just bought a Triumph 65 so that I can leave it permanently in my car- I've been installing his MR every weekend in my car so far.

A True Fit Premier in my car, True Fit in my husband's, and Coccoro for travel. She's rear facing in all, though the Coccoro will likely only be a few more months by height.

DD is 2 years 2 days, riding RF in a MA. I'd like to get a MR for more legroom, but DH isn't so keen on new carseats. If she starts to get too much more squished, I'll probably pull out our spare/travel seat (a CA) and keep the MA for spare.

Rfing Radian xlt. I am not sure I am completely satisfied with it but it is our only option as we have to do three across and it is the only one that will work. When he switches to ffing I am not sure what we will do as *I* don't even 5 step well in the back row will (plus there is a plastic peice I end up sitting on as the seat sort of cuts in a bit from the sides) so I doubt my ds will.

DD is almost 2 (next week), but I'll answer anyway. DD is in a RF TFP. I love it.

DS is 2y6m and rfing in a CCO in my van and a RA50 in DH's car. He is close to the 1in in the CCO depending on if he is wearing a cloth or disposable diaper. I will soon be putting him in the RA50 in my van and the EFTA in DH's car, both still rfing.

He was in a classic Blvd before the CCO and I miss it! It expired this fall and I wish we had had the funds to replace it. He'll also have the option of the TF rfing when DD outgrows it within the next year I think.

My DD is 2 yrs 1 month and a total shrimp that rides RFing in a CCO in my car, my hubby's car and my mom's car. I'm kinda obsessed with the seat and she still has about 2 inches left height wise and 7 pounds weight wise.

DS is 2.25 and riding RFing in a Signo. He still fits great. Legroom is ok. He spent the last month in the MR and didn't seem to appreciate the extra legroom. Plus I hated that I couldn't tighten the harness without undoing the crotch buckle and then pulling the adjuster strap then rebuckling.

DS turned 3 on nye. He spent the last yr rf in rn xtsl. I like it a lot better now that I have the angle adjuster. I wouldn't change it but I like the new diono covers better. He really would have liked to have the cobalt, oh well. I like the low sides so he can climb in himself and there's plenty of leg room for him.

My 2.5 year old is riding rfing in a classic marathon. (Covered in moo) It doesn't have much leg room, but I have radians and a tfp for later. I chose it because I've always wanted a cow seat.

DD is 2y2m and riding in a Bv70. It is getting hard to buckle her bc her legs are finally growing and well is 2 and doesn't always like to be buckled. I really rally want a purple Radian but I guess I'll just keep drooling,lol!

I'm a nanny to a 2 1/2 year old who rides RF in a Complete Air in my car and RF in Evenflo Symphonies in her parents' cars.

She's a shorty and has 8+ inches over her head in the CA and 4+ in the Symphonies.

Ds is 2 years 9 months in a rf Radian XT. He has good leg room and plenty of room to grow. Totally wants a Foonf to match big sister's Paul Frank Oobr.

2 yr 8 months and rides in a Scenera, TF, TFP, and RNXT. All rfing. We love them all and so does she. I do wish the TF/P went to 40 lbs. when she outgrows them weight wise (another 4 lbs) she'll be riding in 2 XTs and 2 XTSLs and I'll have to turn DD1 ff.
