Got our RXT today and decided to compare it to the XTSL since I have both. My DS has about the same amount of room in both, I didn't think he gained any room in the RXT. Aside from the changes made to the RXT they are pretty much the same. The head wings are more substantial on the RXT and the shell color is a darker gray than the XTSL. The width of the back of the seat inside is the same on both, but the RXT has about 1.5" more width on the seat part with the sides pushed in. With the sides pushed out it's even wider. Now for the pics. DS2 is 3y2m, about 32 lbs and 39". Not sure on torso but he is dead even with the 2nd slots on the Nautilus.
Both seats with RXT sides in:
RXT sides out:
Overall I am very pleased with the RXT. I didn't get to try it in booster mode since DS2 is too small. I may try with DD later if she fits and will update if she does. I do have to say that I hate the new black LATCH straps. They are thicker or something and it's very hard to tighten. Takes a lot more effort than with the old red straps and non-SL straps. Can't wait to get my hands on the angle adjuster also. Feel free to ask any questions.
