My first carseat check!

I had my carseats checked for the first time ever today! A police officer who goes to church with us is a tech, and I got him to check out the installation of my (kids') new car seats this morning! We have an 03 Town & Country with a RF Cowmooflage Marathon in the center captain's chair and a Madison Regent in our rear bench. I was a little nervous about the Regent as I wasn't sure how much movement was okay and I'm not great at seatbelt installs, but according to the tech, they passed with flying colors! :D I did my best installing them, but I feel lots better about them knowing that a tech checked them out for me.

Oh, and he had never actually seen a Marathon or Regent IRL before!! He thought the Marathon was the coolest seat, and really loved the features of it. Plus he liked the harness strap holders on the Regent. He also checked my old Triumph which I just swapped into DS's Civic RF, which was solid, too.

He also told me that his tech training was the hardest class he'd taken since joining the police force. :eek:
