Does anyone have experience fitting 3 seats into the 2012 Ford explorer with inflatable seat belts?
We are expecting our 3rd baby and I am trying to figure out how to fit 3 seats in our 2012 Ford Explorer limited. I would love to put 3 across the 2nd row, just don't love the idea of having one enter/exit through the rear lift gate. The 2nd row seems too small for 3 seats. Willing purchase new seats before buying a new vehicle to make this work.
5 year old currently using Recaro Prosport in harness mode, close to weight limit for LATCH so close to booster mode (also have a Graco Nautilus in husband's truck we will likely have to use vs. Recaro due to inflatable seat belts)
2.5 year old in 1st gen Chicco Nextfit with LATCH installation (can also use our Britax Marathon 70 here) recently forward facing.
ISO new infant seat, as our infant seat is expired.
