EPS foam on Ultra/Platinum CarGo

I saw on Graco's website that EPS foam is only on models manufactured after July 19, 2004. Do you think it's important to get that? How would I find out the manufacture date? I was thinking about ordering online from BabyAge where it's $59.99 shipped, but now I'm wondering if the cheap price is due to it being the old model. Any feedback?

I would guess it's an older model without the EPS ... I really like the idea of EPS, but I'm not sure precisely what the exact statistical-type benefit is other than it's the same stuff used in helmets so it's added protection for head injury & I remember reading that head injuries are the most common kind of kids in accidents:confused:

You could just call or e-mail them and ask the mfgr date of the model you're considering. ;) Other people have done that type of thing in the past to ensure that they're getting the version they want.
