I'll be carpooling with a friend next year and will need to fit a max of 5 kids in my car. We will most likely be carpooling for many years to come so I'm looking for the best (and most economical) setup that will grow with us.
My current carseats I own: 2 britax roundabouts, 1 britax marathon, 1 britax Frontier 85, and 1 graco turbo booster
My kids: 5 1/2 year old (he is over 50lb and almost 48"), 3 1/2 year old (he is probably close to 40lb and is almost 41"), 1 1/2 year old (the munchkin of the family... Probably 24lb and not sure how tall)
My current setup: older boys in frontier and marathon in 3rd row. Baby in rear facing roundabout behind driver.
The kids I'm taking in the carpool: 6 year old (she will be 7 in September) and a just 5 year old boy. My friend (and I) prefer to keep the kids in at least high back boosters but are ok with 5pt harnesses too.
The carpool will be every week during the school year so I would prefer a "permanent" setup with 3 across the 3rd row. I want to keep the baby in the second row for easy access. And I would rather keep the plus 1 seat stowed away so the older kids can get to the third row easily. I would also like the option in the second row seat easily taken out for weekends and vacations.
Any suggestions for the third row?
