If you had to choose today which one would you choose?
Gabe isn't ready to forward face (and not even 2 yet) but of course I like planning ahead. I did go and play with them both at USA Baby this week. I like them both, he'd already fit in both well because he's so tall even though he's skinny. His head is already even with the top of the Britax Logo in the Marathon rear facing.
He's an only child so I don't have to think about too many seats in the back seat or passing something down. I like that the Regent is nice and open, but the Frontier becomes such a good booster and with only one child that 9 year expiration is nice. But I'm not sure about his head being pushed forward in the Frontier. I like some of the covers on the Regent better but the Sahara isn't bad on the Frontier. ACK!
I will probably be getting a newER car next year. Mine is a 98 Plymouth Breeze and I'll be lucky if I get something that's got LATCH (lol). So would install issues on either one stop you from getting it if you didn't know what car you'll be putting it in? It will be a car and not a van for sure.
Okay so you can tell I'm just "talking out loud" but I like to plan ahead and I'm probably making this a much bigger deal then it is, don't we all?
So for argument's sake if you HAD to buy one of them today (and knew you'd get a Frontier with the fixed splitter plate issue too) which one would you choose?
