I have a cousin who currently has 3 dc. The oldest is 5 weighs around 40 lbs if that and in a regent. The middle is 2.5 and is currently rearfacing in the marathon weighing about 32 lbs. And they now have a 1 year old who is outgrowing his safe seat in height. He has about an inch and quarter left above his head in the shell. So she is going to give him the marathon. Now she is at a loss to either put the 2.5 year old in the regent and by either a nautilus for the 5 year old. Or would you leave the 5 year old in the regent and give the 2.5 year old the nautilus. Also does the nautilus and frontier have the same amount of shelf life, which one expires first. The marathon she has has the 33 lb rf weight limit if it was a 35 lbs one i was going to recommend getting a cheaper seat for the baby so the 2.5 year old can rear face. But at 2.5 i am comfortable turning him around as he lasted well beyond the norm. She doesn't know too much about carseat safely but knows i am a freak so for the safetly of her kids she does what i say. When we were talking she wanted to know which one would have the longest expiration date and if one is a significant longer than the other so it would last the baby when they needed it. Thanks in advance.
