Question Fitting 3 across in Toyota Corolla/Avalon

[Unregistered]

I have a 6.5 year old in a Graco high back booster, and a 1.5 year old RF in a Evenflo Triumph Advance, and I am expecting a new baby in the spring. I am wondering how we will be able to fit 3 across in the back seat of our 1996 Toyota Avalon and 2005 Toyota Avalon. (we have a spare Graco snugride that was the 1.5yr olds when he was younger, and just purchased 2 Sunshine Kids Radian seats on clearance.)

I'm wondering if we can use any of what we have starting with a Radian and Graco Booster in each car, ideally if I'm purchasing another seat for the new baby for each car I want it to last awhile. (I rather not buy 2 more infant seats, convertible would be better.) Also, the babies need to rear face. Any suggestions? Thank you!

My sister just did a trip in her dh's Toyota Corolla, around a 1998-99, and did a three across. She did rf Marathon, ff Radian, ff Radian. She could also fit a TurboBooster on the side instead of the Radian, but opted for keeping her dd harnessed for the 8 hour trip. I think you will probably be able to fit three across with a Radian and some other convertible, both rf, and a Turbo in each car.

Thank you so much for replying, is there another convertible that you (or someone else) recommends that doesn't take up a lot of space that might be a little more affordable then getting 2 more Radian seats? If they are the only seats that will work though I will get them because it's cheaper then buying new cars.
