Wifey and I are expecting our baby around Christmas, so we're getting prepared.

Default lol... oh hell yes, I was just telling my wife I needed one of these, lol... Is there some reason

you think it won't? they are no bigger than your standard graco seat (in fact i think they are a rebadged graco seat)

Default Yes I fits, kinda tight

I've had one for a year now. Best car seat IMO. In the s4 it is very hard to get the passenger seat belts latched once the seat is in.

Default We have two of those in the back seat.

Realize that for your newborn, you will be rearfacing for 12 months or 20 lbs. In the rearfacing direction the front seat may have to be moved up a little to accomodate the car seat. This will be true for all convertible seats. The fabric for this seat is much softer than the Peg Perego we used to have. Also, it seems to not be as hot for the kids.

Default Thanks all - wife and I are thinking of getting a "high performance" wagon if the current ride

ends up being too much hassle. We'll try it out!

Default we had 2 Britax Marathons too. those are nice seats.

Good crash test ratings. Very comfy. I dont think you're giving up much staying with Britax.
