My husband and I test drove the new MDX yesterday and it was awesome! But what is even more impressive was that the back seat has 3 full sets of LATCH! And upper tethers in all 5 rear seating positions!! My jaw almost hit the floor when I was standing at the tailgate and saw every seat had a top tether. Are car manufacturers finally getting it? I didn't get to read the manual so I don't know if all 3 sets of LATCH can be use at the same time but it is nice to have the flexibility to use it in which ever seat you please.

MY 2007 Pilot has has upper tether anchors in all 6 rear seats, which I thought was pretty cool. The 3 tether anchors were obvious on the back of the 2nd row seats, but when DH and I had the back open, we saw the tether anchors are actually in the plastic by the back hatch, not on the back of the 3rd row seats. The Pilot only has the lower anchors in the two outboard positions in the 2nd row. For an 8-passenger vehicle, it would have been nice if they put a 3rd set of lower anchors somewhere! LOL

Maybe I'm confused, but doesn't the MDX only have 5 rear seats? Your post says 7, but I'm thinking that's the total number that the MDX seats, and you just typed the wrong number by accident. Do you think you're going to get the MDX?

Oh yeah...DUH...I mean 5!! Haha I'll go fix that! The MDX had the tethers for the rear seats on the back ledge like your Pilot. And then the 3 for the middle row of seats were on the seat backs. And as it stands now I want...no I *need* :D the MDX and my husband gave the go ahead so hopefully we'll have one soon!
