Hi all!
We have an '06 Volvo XC70, a very tall baby (over the 97% her whole life, currently 7m), strangely enough her Dad and I are also very tall. We are currently using the Nuna Pipa which requires the passenger to be pretty squished up. (It can't fit behind the driver seat and still allow for either of us to actually drive.) The Pipa is almost outgrown and we want to reclaim some legroom when we replace it. Grandma is flipping out over the Diono Radian XRT, but I'm 99% certain it takes up MORE room than the Pipa in RF. The Nuna Rava takes up the same amount of space or less, depending on the recline you use, it has rave reviews everywhere, and has extra leg room for the kiddo as she grows, but it's super pricey and never goes on sale. I like that both is these seats have steel frames, the only ones that do to my knowledge.
Any insight on the fit of the Diono in an XC70? Does the foam incline accessory help all that much?
Any insights on the Rava?
Any other super safe car seats that give kiddo and parents both more legroom that I should consider?
Thanks in advance!
