Envoy: Monterey, Scenera FF, FPSVD FF.
EXTREMELY hard to install! Had to be with seatbelts to allow outboard seats to be moved farther out. Buckling the Monterey was tough.

Mitsubishi Montero (not my car, unsure of what year, but definitely pre-2002 as there's no latch)
behind driver: Monterey, center lap belt only: RF RN, behind passenger: backless turbo. Plenty of room, easy to buckle the boosters. Even though the Monterey is wide at the top, I find it fits well next to a RF RN because they both have such a narrow footprint.

Great! I'd like to put it next to a rfing radian. It will be rfing for the next 3-4 years too. (Then we can figure something else out.)

Not 3 carseats, but . . . kiddo used the Monterey center between Parkway & Grandma: '08 Toyota Yaris
It was not easy to buckle the boosters (with the buckle stalks for both being on the same side of the Monterey) & it was tricky to shut the door all the way ... it was still safer than not using a booster & Grandma (5' ~150#) was the small adult to ride in the vehicle, although she had to sit sideways with the door open to buckle herself & was pretty uncomfortable for the ride
