My 2.5 year-old's shoulders are about to go past the highest strap slot the Safety 1st 5-point/booster in her grandma's car ... she doesn't look ready to ride in it as a booster, though. The shoulder belt will not be close against her chest, but my mom thinks she'll be OK because she has automatic locking belts. I believe she has a bit more room left in the harness straps of her Graco Platinum in my dad's F250. I can't find any crash info on the rear seat of the F250, but my guess is that unless it was in an accident with an equally sized or bigger vehicle, then she's pretty safe? She so rarely rides in the big truck & if she does it's most often just to "help" her grandpa plow their mile-long driveway. So, I'm thinking I'd rather switch seats so that he has the Safety 1st as a booster [he has automatic locking belts, too]. I'd like to let my sister-in-law use the Graco 5-point/booster in her Bonneville on the weekly occasion that she wants to take my daughter with hers to get all the kids icecream [she said she'll use it if *I* install it]. I know the Graco can be in the middle, but if my mom & I go halves on a Britax Husky can it be installed with a lap only belt??? My mom drives my daughter around often & I'd prefer her to be as safe as possible in the little Chevy Tracker. If not the Husky then I'm thinking we'll have to get another Wizard, although I was hoping to get the longer lifespan of the Husky.
