Hi there!
We are likely purchasing a 2010 Ford Focus Sedan or Coupe, unsure which at this point. I thought I should come see if you have any pointers or suggestions based on the car seats we are currently using.
Seat #1: Britax Marathon, FF
Seat #2: Britax Decathlon, FF
Do you see any barriers to using these car seats in the 2010 Ford Focus? Anyone doing something similar, have pics to show me what I am facing? Currently we have a 2000 Ford Taurus, so I know I am going to be losing some room.
Many thanks in advance!

I'm not going to be a ton of help...never been in a Focus. But we just got a Civic Coup. It's DH's car and the kids will almost never be in it so it works for us. Something negative is now close to the window a rear passenger's head is. I'm 5'2". I sat in the back seat and pulled up the head rest. I was surprised it didn't go higher...until I realized it can't go higher because the glass is right there. I'd feel ok riding back there. But I'd never put a tall (or avg height) adult there. Something to check out if you'll have the car when your kids are older or if you'll carry adults.
