On another board where I post, someone wants to know if there is any car where she can fit three Marathons in the same row. She doesn't want a minivan and wants all her children together. I assume at some point they will all be forward facing so puzzling RFing and FFing may not work.
Thanks!

I think the Impala might work. It's got a really roomy back seat. I know I can do it in my Suburban.

Buick La Sabre, Park Avenue and bigger would work.

Pontiac Grand Prix ? (4 door sedan) has 3 sets of tether anchors and seemed pretty roomy.

I'd want to try the Ford 500 as well.

Any possiblity of switching an MA for a Radian in the middle? I'd bet most full size sedans could handle that.

We have a Grand Prix w/3 tether anchors and you can NOT put 2 ff MA's side by side. Now, ours is a 2000...so a newer model may be roomier.

I haven't actually had more than one Marathon to try this, but I'm pretty certain I could get three of them across the back of my Mom's Mercury (I think it's a Grand Marquis? I always forget... yeah, I just looked up photos, it's a Grand Marquis.) There's a LOT of room back there!

Hmm, maybe the Ford Taurus with the pre-2008 older body style, or the 2008 Taurus model which is essentially a renamed and very roomy Ford 500.

I know someone who managed to get 3 MAs in the back seat of a Hyundai Sonata, but I'm not sure what year.

Thanks for the options. I'll let her know!

I was able to get my 2 MAs ffing and ffing/rfing side-by-side in mil's Impala. The extra outboard seat definitely seemed roomy enough for a 3rd Marathon, but I didn't have a 3rd MA to give it a try.

Dodge Intrepid would work as well... 3 sets of LATCH
