Which seats to keep?

My collection at the moment is only 7 seats. Eek!

I have two BVs, 1 MA, 1 RA, 1 GN, 1 FN, 1 SS1. Main car is GN and SS1, secondary (mostly only weekends) is FN and RA. Funny, Britax gets downgraded to the spare vehicle :rolleyes:

So, I was gonna sell the FN, of which I am really not that fond. Now that I know I can use the GN with the crotch strap, that's staying (it doesn't bother him, and we love the seat soooo much). AJ's not gonna give up the SS1 anytime soon. I really want to use the RA for at least a few more months until I can make another convertible really upright.

So, GN, SS1, and RA must stay. The SS1 and RA are obviously only temporary seats, so I'm gonna need to replace both of those within the year. AJ wants to keep her BV (the brown one) for him. I really don't even want to deal with a RF BV again.

Should I sell the FN and put Charlie in a MA or BV at this point in my car? Should I even keep a larger convertible for Sam in my car, or just use the RA until he outgrows it and then get another seat for charlie and give Sam the seat Charlie is in? That would mean it would have to be the MA that charlie goes in now, and the BV gets sold, because I really never want to RF an older kid in a BV again. Charlie would rather have the MA anyway (though I'd rather put him in the BV for the SIP and sleeping support, but I'll concede to his wishes if need be).

The seat I'd like to get Charlie, if I can install it with the belt, is an XT. My back seat is just so small, that a low profile seat would be best. I want the FN to work, but it doesn't. The GN would if not for those stupid arm rests. But I need to really mess with the GN and make sure it'll go in AJ's car with the belt, otherwise I have to keep the FN for when he hits LATCH weight limit (another 6ish pounds) so I can install it LBP with her FOB belts.

I really just want to get rid of some seats. I'm tired of having so many. But I really wouldn't if I moved Sam into his convertibles today, I'd only have one extra. Maybe that's the answer...

So, what do I do oh wise ones?

You want to sell your RA to me. :whistle: Since my sister will not give mine up for the next 6 months or so.

Seriously, though, if your not going to use the BV FFing and dont want to use it RFing, I guess thats what I would give up.

If you only need to get rid of one, then FN and keep BV for AJ.

Your sister is holding your RA hostage?! Get it back! Storm the palace! Let loose the pigeons! Replace her chewing gum with rubber cement!
