Question What midsize SUVs will fit a RF Diono comfortably!?

My husband and I are in the market for a larger family vehicle. I'm currently driving a compact car and my daughter has a Diono radian. Her seat leaves NO room in the front seat for a passenger to ride. I recently ordered the angle adjuster to use with her seat. However, if/when we have more children I won't be able to use a angle adjuster with a new born so I want to make sure whichever vehicle we get will accommodate a high back rear facing convertible seat! We are currently looking at the Chevy Traverse and Ford Explorers with 2nd row captain seats. Does anyone have Diono radians installed RF in a Chevy Traverse or other SUV they can recommend for us to look at?

I would try the Ford Flex. It has more second row leg room than the Explorer, but with a similar interior layout. It's also a little lower which makes it easier for kids to get in and out.

I actually just started looking at those last night! I love that the 2nd row captain seats do not have big bulky arm rests so it probably makes the pass through easier than the traverse/acadia and Tahoe/yukons

The seats are very comfortable, and I can manage the path to the rear though I am not small. I think it's the best riding car I've ever been in, and have had a number of other people agree. I currently have a Limited, and can't imagine giving up the creature comforts that came with it.
