Question Another True Fit or a combination seat?

Our 3-yr-old is in a True Fit. He will be 4 when sister will need to move to a convertible seat. Per growth chart he'll fit in the TF 'til he's 6; he's ~25th percentile for ht and wt right now with 2 more slots to go for the harness.

Right now I'm debating whether to...

A) get another TF for baby soon and expect to get a TurboBooster or similar later for my son; or

B) get a Frontier 90 (or Nautilus) for my son now, move baby to our TF (which expires when baby will be 3.5 yrs old) then get a TB when baby needs the Frontier/Nautilus?

Also, if I go the combination seat route, is Frontier really worth $70 more over the Nautilus? I've read about belt path problems with the Nautilus, and I know people LOVE their Frontiers.

I'd go with B. He doesn't need the height or weight limit of the Frontier, by the sound of it, so you have a lot of options. You could get the Frontier, or you could look at the Frontier 85, Graco Argos, Graco Nautilus, Evenflo SecureKid, and Harmony Defender.
