Does anyone have a 2009 Nautilus yet?
I am excited to say that I am the proud owner of one, as of this afternoon.
On the way back from our mini-vacation today, we decided to stop at Target for no reason really. I wanted to look at the Nautilus they have there (Reese, all gray, plush) since we were planning to get another Nautilus soon anyway. I wanted to hold off for a while to try to get a 2009, so we'd have an extra year on it. I'm not a huge fan of the gray, but whatever.
So Alisha tipped the box over a little and I asked what the date was. I was sold as soon as I seen that it was a 2009. I prefer my Matrix (black/silver), but the manufacture date makes up for it. Alisha likes it and it's for her car, so that's all that matters I guess.
The box was short and square, rather than that huge/tall one they used to come in and the seat was put together except for the headrest (don't know if that's a new thing or not). Our other, we got this past September and had to put the back on and headrest (armrests were already on). The manual was the 9/08 version (different than our other Nautilus). It's not the one that says you can use LATCH in booster mode though...it's the one that says absolutely nothing about it (our other one specifically says don't do it).
So anyway...I was excited and had to post about it! Thanks for reading!
