A friend is due soon with baby #3, and I'd like to try and help her figure out how to fit 3 car seats in her and her hubby's current vehicles. She has a fairly recent (2010?) Equinox that will likely be traded in for something with 3 rows in the next year, and her DH drives a 2013 quad-cab Tacoma. DS1 is 4 1/2, ff in a Graco Nautilus (which they love), and DS2 is 2 1/2, also ff in an Evenflo Symphony (which they don't really like). She has a Graco infant seat in storage, but isn't sure of the model or expiration date. Presently they just move the seats between cars as necessary, with the Equinox as the primary vehicle. They would like DS1 to ride in the middle so that he is next to the baby, and would prefer not to turn DS2 back rear-facing. Is the Nautilus too big to work in the center of either vehicle? Any suggestions for seats that would work well for the baby and DS2 on either side? In searching the forum the only seat I've seen mentioned as puzzling well with it is a RF My Ride. They would prefer a bucket for the baby to start, but all suggestions are welcome.
I am traveling by car to visit her next week and have the following seats I could bring to try out: a Britax B-Safe and Roundabout 50, a Coccoro, and a Scenera. Does anyone know if any of these might work? I know DS2 is 33" right now, if that helps.
TIA!
