I currently have 4 carseats in my ford 08 expedition. Expecting baby number 5...so another carseat. I currently have a graco booster in the back for my 7 year old and an evenflo booster with back for my 5 yr old. I cannot fit another seat between those 2. :( I have a rear facing graco 65 in the middle row with my 1 yr old and a safety 1st forwardfacing harness seat for my 3yr old. I currently have a diono radian rxt on the way so im anxious to see if it will fit in the back row. However i still dont think my kids will be able to reach their buckle for their boosters. A friend of mine suggested seatbelt extenders, but im not sure on the safety of those. Another car right now is not an option, though i really love the nissan nv. :)

Hi there. Congrats on #5. :)

Which Graco do you have, and which Safety 1st?

Do you have the screws in the armrest of your seven year old's booster?

Seatbelt extenders are not safe for boosters or carseats. They're for people who cannot get the seatbelt to reach around their bodies.

Do you have five seats in the back, or six?
