Carseat Crankypants
I may be driving two other kids in a way-too-complicated carpool situation this summer. I have a Subaru Forester and a spare Radian and a Compass B510. I will never have both kids at the same time -- it would be one kid to camp and one kid home from camp. There would be: six-year-old boy who rides in a backless booster in his parents' car and who I think would fit in my spare Radian, and eight-year-old girl who seems to be too tall for the Radian.
I don't want to be juggling seats every day, but I want to keep the kids safe. I'm willing to buy a new seat if I have to (but I'm NOT looking for an excuse to go seat shopping).
Would you:
swap out the Radian and the Compass every day?
let both kids ride in the Compass?
get a Monterey?
get a Nautilus? (would I have to actually remove the harness to use it as a BPB for the older girl?)
