the key fit... Would you leave DD in the center and put the skinny KF outboard in the skinny spot or would the KF go center and DD outboard?
With DD's Signo RFing in the center with LATCH, the Keyfit will fit outboard behind the drivers side, but the bucket isn't as easy to get in and out, since you have to puzzle it a little. It will work, and leave the outboard passenger position open, which would give me plenty of room to nurse the LO.
I could put DD RF outboard passenger side, and the Keyfit in the middle, but that won't leave me much room to sit and nurse outboard driver side.
I had wanted to go the convertible route from the beginning, but DH wants a bucket, and the True Fit Premiere colors aren't my taste. So, I can use my Companion or DH said I can get a Keyfit.
From your pic, your MDX is obviously 2nd generation? (07+)
If another babe is in my future, I think I would get the Chaperone, so glad to know that it worked outboard. I'd be putting mine driver outboard. Can you compare how much room the Chaperone took RF to any other RF seats? (SS1, TF or MA by any chance?)
Yep, it's an '07. The Chaperone fits fine outboard either side, but probably better passenger. DH is not super tall, but doesn't like to sit too upright, so if the Chaperone was on the driver side, he would have to move his seat slightly forward, even with the handle being up. I haven't tried to TF, MA, or SS1 in my vehicle, but compared to DD's Signo, (which is at an estimated 40 degrees to avoid head slump while sleeping) it took up only slightly less room front to back. Obviously the base of the Chaperone is much longer than the Signo, but the upper backside touches the seat.
