In the van, I'd replace my 3 sk radians with 3 diono radians (r100 or r120), my old parkway with a harmony cruz (Child may have to go backless soon anyway.), and cruz and frontier85 with the same.

For the car- another tfp and whatever great deal super tall hbb I run across.

In reality, though, I have spare old style parkways in my basement that I can use if one gets crashed:) If my rodi is crashed, I'd just put in an old parkway.

My van, Currently has a Frontier and XTSL. I'd get DD1 another Frontier, DD2 I'd let her pick, maybe a cobalt RXT, TFP or a Size4Me, I could use a cup holder that can't be broken off by a kid using it as a step to get into the seat.

DH's car, Can I pretend it was totaled? He currently has a Frontier and Roundabout 50. Different car: Probably a Securekid and probably another Britax convertible since it will probably have another tiny back seat, if it fit maybe a Size4Me because it might fit in the mustang with the secure kid. Same car Another Frontier and Britax convertible with lockoffs.

My mom's van has a Maestro, I'd get it a Nautilus since it has no tethers or a Argos so it could be easily adjusted for any grand kid I just wish they weren't so grey.

The Radian 80 in the house I'd probably get a RSTV so I could only have a seat for MIL when visiting and other random travel stuff.

that's a scary thought! my current seats are a Recaro Probooster, an Evenflo Big Kid, and a combi Dakota backless.

I do have a spare harmony backless currently repurposed as my footrest under my desk.

What I would do is get an evenflo amp to replace the big kid... it just works best in dh's car. In my van, I'd probably get a harmony cruz if it does indeed work with the seatbelts there. If not, I'd get a backless or highback amp or turbobooster - money dependent and depending on if a backless would give her good shoulderbelt fit in the third row (the combi dakota does, but I don't know about the others) AND the 2nd row.

For Jeffrey in dh's car, where he still needs and wants a booster, I'd get the cosco ambassador backless or a harmony olympian, depending on if he could fit comfortably in the ambassador.

Nothing new. I LOVE mine and they are almost new. But, but, but I do want 2 Frontier 85's b/c my oldest two are growing and it'll make sense down the road.

But I won't buy anything until they phase out some of the flame retardants by the end of 2012. Then, I'll snap some up!

In my van we have 2 Frontier85s and a Harmony no back booster for when nieces ride with us. I would most likely replace them all the same, but since DD1's is in booster mode I might got for just a booster, but probably not because I really like how the FR85 is working for her.

In DH's we have a FR85 and an original Frontier. I would replace them both with 85s, or again, consider a dedicated booster for DD1.

MIL has an Evenflo Gen65 for DD2 and a turbobooster for DD1 in her car. If they needed replaced, I am pretty sure it would be another turbobooster. Not sure about the Gen65...do they still sell them? If so, maybe another one because MIL is really good about getting that one tight enough. If they are not still being sold, maybe a Maestro, maybe something else.

Right now in my van I have a Frontier, Monterey, and a Keyfit base. I'd get another Frontier, and a blue Monterey (current is pink), and another Keyfit base because BabyD's parents bought it for her in my car. Boring, I know. The fact is all the seats in all 4 cars are exactly what is needed there (until I find out if a FRSICT fits in Mom's escort).

Right now we have an Oobr for each of our main cars, an RNXTSL for our car that only has lap belts and a Vivo for backup. I would replace the RNXTSL for a Frontier so that we can keep DD harnessed in that car. I would keep everything else the same.

Currently have:
Marathon
Marathon 70
Frontier 85
Evenflo Secure Kid

I would probably replace the Marathon with a Marathon 70 and the current Marathon 70 with....ugh, an R120 or RXT. I hate, hate, hate the Radian harness adjuster, but it unfortunately is the ONLY answer to my car seat conundrum. I need a higher rearfacing weigh limit, rearfacing tether(or ARB), slim(so I can talk DH into kid #3) and less than a car payment and a half(Foonf). Oh, not being atrociously ugly(Foonf) is a bonus.

For DD, I would get two new Frontiers. I really like the Secure Kid, but the head slump is BAD for DD. I adore the Frontier.

What is the story about the new Peg convertible? I've seen it suggested a few times, but I thought the measurements were the same as the Britax seats, which I don't like! LOL

AFM

RN XT------Foonf
GN----------Frontier
Monterey---Oobr

Can I pretend to have my LBB in the car too! LOL

TurboBooster----Olli

Right now I have two Regents, a Frontier 80, and a SK Monterey in my van. My 9yo uses the Monterey most of the time right now, but sometimes he still rides harnessed. I would replace all the Britax seats with Frontier 85s and the Monterey with something that is allowed to be used with no support behind it, maybe a Parkway. Right now we are using the Monterey against the instructions.:eek: Oh, I also have a Safeguard Go in there, not buckled. I use it when I go in my friends car for my 4yo. I would probably replace with a Safety 1st Go. I need the narrowness and shape for her car once a week.

Colton's main seat is a Nautilus, his backup is a CA 50 lb version. Chy's main seat is an RXT and her backup is a classic MA.

I'd replace Colton's main seat with a ProBooster and his backup seat with a 65 lb version CA. I would get Chy another RXT (but in Plum this time!), and her backup seat would be another classic MA. I need that seat because it has lockoffs, fits well in small spaces, and is the easiest install in the world and we often have older, small vehicles we borrow from family or ride with family in and having that MA has saved me a ton of scraped knuckles and cussing, lol. I don't think ours expires until Chy will be of a good booster age, because I never want to let that seat go.
