Hi all,
I have a son who will be 2 in August, currently RF in a Chicco Nextfit. We are also expecting twins in September. I'd like to keep my son RF as long as possible, so I need to figure out a vehicle/car seat combo that will fit us all safely, both now and in the future.
I currently have a 2013 Explorer (not inflatable seat belts). From what I've read, it would be extremely challenging to get 3 RF given the center 2nd row seat is so narrow. I would prefer to stay in an SUV and not a mini van, but since I'm only 5'4" it seems pretty unlikely. It's already pretty challenging for me to get my son into his seat since he's not particularly cooperative.
We are strongly considering the Honda Odyssey (likely 2014). I'd like to keep my son in his Nextfit and RF if we can. We also have a Britax b safe from when he was an infant I would prefer to reuse for one of the twins. Would two b safes and a Nextfit fit all RF in the second row of the Odyssey? Is there another car option that might work better for us? Should we just give up and buy a bus? If you were me what configuration of seats and vehicle would you get?
Thanks for the help!
