We currently have a snugride installed in our 2004 Subaru Forester and it is just not working. We had it installed prior to our baby being born (she is 3 months now). It is outboard behind the passenger seat, and the passenger seat has to be so far up that it is nearly impossible for a person to ride in the front. So, my husband and I can't ride together in the front, and a third adult can only join us if they are really small. Here are my questions, after searching forums, etc...
-Some people say that they get a better result/ solution to this problem if they install the infant seat in the middle without LATCH. I don't understand this at all. Wouldn't that mean that BOTH front seats have to be moved up?
-Would matters (space-wise) improve if we switched to a convertible seat? Specifically, I am looking at the Britax Roundabout. If this would give us enough room in the front passenger seat, I will buy one tomorrow.
Really, we are looking at minivans at this point. We plan to have at least one, probably two, more babies fairly soon. If we could hold off on the new vehicle for just a little while though, that would be best for us financially. I can't believe how small the Forester's back seat is! Thanks so much for any responses or answers that anyone can provide!
