Hi,
My husband and I are expecting identical twins in May and are currently shopping for a new car. I think we'd prefer an SUV but are not set on anything in particular.
My litmus test is this:
I want to be able to fit the babies in the center and passenger outboard positions (rather than both outboard) as this is clearly safer. I want to be able to do this both when they are in infant car seats as well as later when they graduate to larger convertible/FF seats. So . . . I need a 2nd row bench that is wide enough for all of these combos in a center and outboard position.
We haven't bought carseats yet so I'm open to whatever combinations, although I do like both the Chicco KeyFit as well as the Britax Companion.
I drove the 2008 Toyota Sequoia last weekend and was kind of turned off--it was such a beast (I currently drive a wonderful Prius). I'd love a Highlander Hybrid but, unfortunately, it only comes with captain seats in the back (ugh!). I've looked at the Lexux GX 470 but can't tell if that would work as the 2nd row seemed a bit narrow.
Suggestions?
Thanks!
