Okay I talked to a customer sales rep at Britax and she said that the Advocate goes 5-33rf and 20-65 ff :crying:. She did confirm the Diplomat goes to 35 rf though.

I believe her but she did say that they haven't seen the seat, is it possible that they may change the limit in the next few months???? I was so excited to get this seat but now I can't justify it because I already have 2 BV's and although the ff recline would be awesome, I'm not sure if it is $300 worth awesome:rolleyes:.

Well, if they haven't seen the seat, then I wouldn't take her word for it. You could always call back, get a different rep and ask and see what they say - if you feel like holding forever again. ;)

The rep told me on the phone that both the new seats RF to 35 pounds. Wish they could get their stories straight.

Yeah, I'm gonna try to call again tomorrow. Since she hadn't seen the seat and didn't even know what kind of adjuster it had, I wasn't completely sold that she knew for sure but the fact that she did confirm the Diplomat was going to 35 pounds threw me off;)!

It really doesn't make sense that they would only have 1 seat that rf to 35 pounds.

I was just going through all the brochures we picked up at the ABC show last week, and the 2008 Britax product catalogue states that both the Advocate and the Diplomat rear face to 35 pounds.

Hth!
