Rental car dilemma

I got the ProBooster next to a rear facing Radian in the back of a 2dr Cobalt. There wasn't room for a 3rd seat (but did fit an unboostered 9yr old), but surely the rental car's back seat is bigger then a Cobalt!

The ProBooster may be wide at the shoulders, but the base is fairly narrow. I'd try the RN rf'ing center, ProBooster and RA outboard.

The only issue is the baby is the only one who fits in the ra lol. So that seat can only be used rfing. I'm gonna try the probooster, rfing ra and ffing radian and hope for the best. If not I would think the harmony would fit even though I'm not keen on it.

I would try FF Radian, RF Radian, Booster. Good luck!


Success! My knuckles hate me though and buckling the booster is ridiculous!! Thank goodness it's only one trip

What would have worked *perfect* is FFing radian, RF RA, and Radian as a booster. There was way more room that way and buckling was easy too. But alas....diono decided on the unrealistic minimum of 50 lbs which my child will hit when she's ohhhhh 10 or 11 or so. :rolleyes: Which is funny since she is is just *barely* short enough to even fit in booster mode. She will outgrow it in booster mode in probably 6 months. While never meeting the minimums for a booster :p Totally unrealistic design and minimums IMHO

Yay! I'm so glad you figured it out and they will all be ideally safe for the ride!

I agree about the RN in booster mode. My guy is on the average to stocky side and would be outgrowing an RNXT in booster mode now by height. He isn't 50 pounds either.
