New Cars

Yep, you read that right. We had to get 2 new cars after realizing that the car seats did not fit behind Michael in either the Jeep or the Nissan. Initially we started looking at other car seats, but they all measured the same and when we went in to Babies R Us to look at the bases, they were not much smaller. We tried several times to get Michael to squish into the cars, but once I saw his knees on the dashboard I said forget it!

We tried several types of SUV's including a bigger Jeep, Honda Pilot, Chevy Tahoe... and the list goes on. We literally drove to the dealership and started putting the car seat in the back and then having Michael get in the front to eliminate the models that would not work (by the way, none of the above worked).

We ended up getting a Honda Accord (HUGE backseat), and a Ram 1500. We are very happy with how the baby car seats (and strollers/baby gear) fits in each car and relieved that we found cars that were big enough.
