We are headed out on a 3000 mile road trip at the end of June. We will be in the car for between 7 and 12 hours each day for a total of 6 travel days.
DD is currently riding rearfacing in a clek foonf. She is 3.5 and weighs about 35 pounds. She has plenty of room in the seat. But she recently potty trained and complains that her butt hurts if we're in the car for more than an hour. We drove to PA, which is a 7 hour drive and she complained a few times about her butt hurting. When we were running errand this week and she was in the car for about an hour, she also complained. There is really no padding in the seat of the foonf, which is frustrating for such an expensive seat.
So, my options are to trade it out with a rearfacing radian, which I don't particularly like how it installs in the Sienna. It installs ok but slips over time to be pretty reclined, even with the angle adjuster.
Or I could try ffing the foonf for the trip and see if forward facing, the comfort is better. Or I could ff the radian. Other ffing seats available are the true fit premier (weighs too much to use rearfacing) or a frontier 85.
This is going to be one long, hellish trip and I need help deciding what to do!
