Do the MA65 and the old style BLVD have the same shell?

lovemybabybug · Feb 17, 2012

I am trying to figure out how a MA65 would play in a 3 across in my car, but can't find anyone who has one. My friend has a old style BLVD, and I think I read somewhere they have the shell, only the BLVD has the head wings. CAn someone confirm/ correct me? Thanks!

MA 65, as in, the classic marathon from target? Because otherwise you can't get them new, as far as I know.

They do have the same shell as the 65# limit boulevard.

The old old with the 33lbs rf limit. If all goes well I will be buying it from someone here.

And thank out, I am happy to know they are the same. I have a couple of situtations coming op that will require extras seats and I am trying to make one seat work for all the defferent scenarios, so if the MA works next to the MR then it will be just perfect!

I'm pretty sure Target still sells the Classic MA. The old 33 lb RF ones and the 35 lb RF ones are identical, by the by. And the Roundabout 50 is the same shell as the Classic MA, too.

Isn't one of them shorter?

And are the new ones wider? The new generation I mean?

Basicly I need a narrow seat, that will work well in a 3 across, MUST have lock offs and it has to be cheap. I don't care about the cover color and also I only need it until summer next year, so it can be an older seat. Someone here has a MA 65 with 2+ years left on it, I am so hoping it would work. Then I need to find 3rd seat. Right now the child who would be in the third seat is in a Baby Trend Flex Loc and that fits next to the MR baseless, so as long as she is in that, I don't need to worry about the third, but big sis outgrew that when she was 5 months, and this one seems to be following the same growth curve, so it will happen sonner or later. I know radians would work, but I cant afford them.

All Britaxes are wide, except the old little Roundabout 40s, and they weren't narrow. The Britax may puzzle well, but they're not narrow.
