Hi there! My wife and I are on the verge of buying a 2013 Prius and before we finalize that decision, we wanted to make sure that we can somewhat easily fit 3 carseats in the back.
Currently have:
5 yo, 45 in, 48 lbs - currently uses the Britax Marathon 70
3 yo, 38 in, 35 lbs - currently uses the Britax Roundabout 55
expecting #3 to join us in August and we need to buy an infant seat since our old infant seat & base expired
So my questions are:
- Is there an infant seat/base that will fit in between two LATCH installs of the britax seats we already have?
- We're open to getting rid of the Roundabout 55 since it's the older of the two seats, so if that was the case, which two seats (one for the newborn and one for the 3 yo who's losing the Roundabout) would you buy? We keep hearing that the Radius is the way to go, but I'm open to other ideas.
- Is the Prius a poor choice given the 3 kiddie dynamic? We're city dwellers, so a big car would be a challenge. Would Prius V be significantly different?
- Any other words of wisdom from all of you 3-in-same-row gurus?
Love all the info I've found already in the many great threads here! Thanks in advance for any advice or insight.
