Carseat in Mazda5 that doesn't cause head falling forward?

You guys are fantastic - you have so many posts about car seats in the Mazda5. I look at it all the time. One thing I haven't seen mention of, though, i slumping. My son is almost 3 and falls asleep in the car about 4 times a week for the half hour ride home, and his head ALWAYS falls forward. I know toddlers are flexible, but sometimes it keeps him awake and makes him upset, and I absolutely hate it. We have a Graco Nautilus and while the seat is fantastic in every other way, the way the headrest slides in front of the backrest pushes his head forward when relaxed.

I am looking for a seat that reclines enough - or is deep enough, maybe? - that this doesn't happen. Suggestions?

The headrest in the nautilus is awful. I ruled it out because of how it pushes the neck forward. We have Frontiers because of the smoother back/neck area.

The argos has a smoother transition but approaches a frontier price.
