Hi, I'm new to the forum and tried to read all the previous posts regarding trying to fit 3 across a Prius before posting. Most posts I've found had only one infant involved. So I'm hoping I'm not duplicating another post.
We have a 2005 Prius (Gen II). We are expecting twins in the next month and have a RF 2 year old (about 27 lbs and 33" tall). He's still RF because of the advice given here, but we can turn him around if that's necessary to get the fit.
We also have a 1996 4Runner that I haven't tried to fit with seats yet. But I'm not anticipating too much trouble with that. Oh, the center seat belt is a lap belt only that does not retract or lock. Can these be used to secure car seats?
We currently have the following car seats and I haven't been able to find a combination that fits. We are open to buying more seats if that will work better.
1 Britax Decathalon
2 Britax Boulevard 70s
2 Maxi-Cosi Mico Infant seats
1 Graco Snugride (the 22lb version)
I've tried a FF Boulevard in the center with the 2 Micos with bases. I can get them to fit, but I wouldn't be able to get the carriers in and out. The carriers end up under the flanges on the Boulevard.
I've also tried RF and FF Boulevard in the center with 2 Graco Snugride 35s and couldn't get the doors to close.
I've also tried FF Boulevard in the center with 2 Chicco Keyfit and also couldn't get the carriers in and out.
Thanks in advance.
