I've got some of mine here (she was sleeping when the photos were taken). At time of pic, she was almost 25 months, 34" tall and 26-27 pounds. She's slightly older, taller and heavier now and still RF in the True Fit. :)

Mine is in my siggy. I think he was 13 months there. He's almost 16 months now- 31", 26 1/2lbs. I will take some new ones and post them when my laptop gets fixed.

Here's DS1 asleep in the TF. He was barely 27 mo. And, yes, on the 3rd slots (he was right at the 3rd, but on the 2nd slots, the straps would slip off his shoulders).

Here's a few different views of dd. She was a couple weeks shy of 4yrs old, 34lbs, and 42.5" tall. We also ended up using position 3 and she was just barely even with it. In the bottom picture the straps were in position 2 and the seat installed at 45*. I moved the straps up and reinstalled the seat more upright once we got to the first place we were going.

(Sorry to include so many, but for those looking at leg room I thought seeing the different positions might be useful to see. :thumbsup: )

Your dd always looks so comfy in that seat. I think your pictures convince a lot of people that rf works for older kids.

My (almost) 3 year old is ERF in her TF, I will try to get some pics tomorrow. It has lots of leg room RFing. I had put it in FFing since she is almost 3 and it barely fits RFing in my short wheel base Caravan. But today she said she wanted to sit "flipped around" so I tried it RF. So that is how it is for now. . . . . we have only had it for about a week and a half. And can I put a seat back cover (like the ones that go on the back of the front seats) on the back of her captains chair to keep her dirty shoes off it??

I am waiting on your pics. LOL. I was just wondering if someone had some in a caravan. I drive one and Seths legs are literally almost over the seat when he stretches them out. 3.5 will be pushing it for rf in the van.

I wanna see how much mroe room the true fit buys his legs. It is getting hard to get him in their good....

Well, Jaylee was in a Scenera and I had turned her cause it was such a PITA to get her in. She has LOTS more leg room in the TF though. I think I have a pic of her RF in her Scenera from not long ago. I will post both tomorrow after I take a pic of her in the TF. The TF touches the seat in front of it (I am 6ft tall thought) but it doesn't push on it. It also helps that it sits down on the seat (no base).

Thanks. :) She really is comfy in the seat. When I told her I would be putting the seat back ff'ing she says to me "ok, I guess I can try that." Funny kid. :D

And can I put a seat back cover (like the ones that go on the back of the front seats) on the back of her captains chair to keep her dirty shoes off it??

Yep, that's no problem at all. Some people just use a pillow case or a towel on the seat back. An old pillow case might be a good idea - I found the plastic of the seat protector made it harder to get my finger in to access the harness adjuster because my fingers stuck when it was hot out. :eek:

I did this and it would have worked out great, but my 16 month old would shove it up and out from behind the carseat with his feet.

I will try to take a pic of J tomorrow in our TF. My seats are reclined a couple clicks though, so with the Blvd he was in being higher and the TF being so low but with a deeper seat, he has pretty much the same amount of leg room. If you get what I'm saying. I'll take a couple pics though. He does look SOOOO tiny in it though! Smaller then in his Blvd. His head barely touches the top headrest.

I cannot find the one of her in her Scenera, I must have deleted it. Is my angle ok on her seat?? I cannot recline it anymore, or it won't fit. It seems pretty reclined....

Here is my J RF at 16 months, 32 inches, and 27 lbs. He has about a 12 in torso. He is BARELY touching the headrest. His hat makes him a lil taller.. :)
