Would it be worth it?

My DS is getting very, very close to having to go FF in his Marathon. Really close. I know my siggy says that he's 29 pounds, but that was a few weeks ago and although I don't have a bathroom scale, I'm guessing that he's over 30 now. (I am making an informed decision to misuse my seat for the moment. That's not the point of the thread though...)

Since DS is obviously going to be going FF sometime this summer, likely before our trip out east (many, many hours of driving), I am wondering if you think it would be worth it to upgrade DS' seat to a Boulevard. He is currently in a Marathon with a Feb 07 DOM, so it only goes up to 48 pounds. Considering he's quite tall, I don't fathom him making it much past 48 pounds in a Marathon or a Boulevard before he outgrew it be height, unless his growth pattern changed a lot. But since he's so young, and has such a big head, would the TSIP provided by the Boulevard be worth it for him since he'll have to go FF?

TIA!

for me it would only be worth it if the Marathon could be sold for $250 since it is only just over a year old. then the upgrade would only cost $70ish
