I asked this question in a post but I probably should have just made it a new post.
Wondering what you would do; planning ahead to summer. A new 7-year-old (60 lbs. and 49/50 inches). Rides in a booster normally. Planning a 7-hour trip on highway and then curvy roads (all dangerous and scary) to grandma's house. Captain's chair in a new van.
1. Remain in booster (He has an Oobr or Prosport (booster mode only fits).
2. Put in our spare Radian XT. He fits fine BUT his shoulders would be over the top slots.
3. Get Frontier85 (though I have no use for one after trip).
My concern is he might sleep and I have no idea how he'll do with that, and I do have to remind him to stay in position sometimes on our short trips around town. Next to his sister for 7 hours really doesn't inspire me.
His 4 and 5-year-old siblings (both over 40 lbs.) will be in a FF Radian, so if I wanted to freak out about neck load (and I do somewhat) I'd have to worry about them too. Just too much worrying! It's just the 7-year-old I'm unsure what to do with.
