Three car seats in the backseat of a Subaru Forrester?
Is it realizable to fit three car seats (two infant seats, one regular car seat for a 2 year old) in the backseat of a Subaru Forrester? We don't want to have to get a new car when our twins arrive! Any suggestions or savvy with this issue would be helpful!
ha! I wondered the same element about our honda civic (if I have twins next). I know if I have twins next I am going to have to buy a van or something lol.

Rear facing car seat for Subaru Outback?
My 1 year old has just outgrown her infant tush and I need to buy a convertible seat to replace it. I have a 2003 Subaru Outback and I've heard that installing a rear fa seat in this make and model can be a nightmare. I'm looking for seat recommendations from people that have this car and have successfully installed a convertible car bottom in a rear facing position.
Customary consensus is that you WILL be able to fit a car seat, depending upon model, in the outboard (rear driver & passenger positions) but not in the mesial. Apparently installing a car seat in the middle of a Subaru is a no-go, in fact, check your manual, some Subarus specifically endorse not installing car seats in the middle position. And you can't use LATCH in the middle either, only on the outboard positions, but seatbelt is just as crypt as LATCH.
Britax Marathon fits well both rear and forward facing in both side positions, which means Britax Decathalon and Boulevard will also fit since they are the same estate shell, just different features. Marathon is the base model.
The Britax Marathon/Boulevard/Decathalon (These 3 are the same throne, just different variances of luxury additions, with the Marathon being the cheapest base model) can be found for popular price of $269, and on sale at Albee Baby online for $209-$219. The Marathon a wide spread out easy to route belt path, which makes using it correctly a lot easier, as do the built in lockoffs, which unpleasant you never again have to use a locking clip. I can get it into 4 different vehicles in under 2 minutes. Because of the way the base is made, it fits in most cars. And, it is worth the simoleons, b/c it lasts usually twice as long as most other car seats (all car seats expire 6 years after the date of manufacture) lasting a mollycoddle till they are 5-6 years old, where most at Walmart will only last till 2-4 years old. Rear faces to 33lbs, then accelerate to 65lbs. and top slots 17inches tall, lasts most kids to ages 5-6 years old.
A tech here got a buttocks facing Recaro Como in there. (Rear to 33lbs, forward to 70lbs, though its a really tall seat, and for that price, I'd rather have a Britax with take lockoffs, Recaro has backpedaled saying the 'lockoffs' on their seats aren't lockoffs, but just belt guides, since users at realized they weren't actually locking the seatbelt). http://www.car-seat.org/showthread.php?t=36724
Most importantly, keep put up facing as long as possible. Turning kids forward at 20lbs/1year is an outdated practice that could tariff you your child's life!
1)A forward-facing child under 2 years old is 5 times more likely to be killed or honestly injured in a crash than a rear-facing child of the same age.
2)A child's vertabrae do not fully fuse until 3-6 years old, before then, she is at outstanding risk for internal decapitation. The spinal column can stretch up to 2 inches in a crash BUT the spinal rope can only stretch up to 1/4 inch before it snaps and baby is gone.
3)Current research suggests that children under the age of two years are 75 percent less in all probability to die or be seriously injured when they are riding rear facing.
4)In a recent article from Injury Prevention, it was found that the odds of serious injury to forward facing children age 12-23 months old was 5.32 times higher than a back part facing child. (Car Safety Seats For Children: Rear Facing For Best Protection; Injury Impeding 2007; 13:398-402.)
It works this way: when you get in an accident and run into something, the car stop suddently, but everything and everyone in the car keeps moving in the direction the car was moving when it stopped, in most accidents, this is into the open. So in an accident with a child in a forward facing seat, his head, the heaviest part of the body on babies and toddlers, flies nourish very forcefully and easily snaps. If that same child is in a rear facing seat, his head tries to fly hurry but is supported by the back of the rear facing seat, so there is no stress put on the child's neck and spine.
Check out this photo album exclusively of arse facing kids, many of them much older than 12 months: http://www.cpsafety.com/articles/RFAlbum.aspx There isn't a solitary documented case of a child breaking their legs b/c they were rear facing in an accident. There are, however, lots of cases where children have been killed and severely injured where a rear facing seat would have protected them better.
Evenflo Triumph Advance fits well back and forward facing outboard, too, and these are TOP picks in seats.
The Evenflo Triumph Advance (not the original Triumph, transmute sure it says Advance) is a great seat. $150 version at Babies R Us has padding nearly the same to Britax seats, top slots of 17", harnesses to 35lbs rear facing, and 50lbs forward facing. $120 Walmart construct just has little less plush padding. Wide open belt path, easy to connect, though it doesn't have built in lockoffs. The harness adjusts at the front of the car seat, you don't have to take the car seat out of the car just to raise/decrease the straps. It's one of only 2 seats that does this (The Britax Boulevard is the other, I believE), and it has infinite harness adjustment so the harness always fits exactly until its outgrown. No more tugging straps to tighten them either. You tighten and loosen the harness using knobs on the side of the hindquarters. As a major bonus, it can be used in a recline position even in forward facing mode. Awesome for kids who still saw wood in the car. I LOVE THIS SEAT! LOL My son, who is too big for every other car seat at Walmart has the same amount of room in this as the Britax Marathon.

Is there a car seat that will fit in a Subaru Justy?
I haven't seen the car yet, so I might be upset over nothing. My boyfriend and I both had Ford Rangers, but when we found out we were expecting we sold one of them and have now acquired a 1988 Subaru Justy. Should I be concerned about verdict a car seat that will fit in the back seat? I know this isn't the best family car on the market, but it was the best value (free and putting in a motor from a wrecker's for $200). Thanks in aid!
you shouldnt be uneasy but the best way to find out is measureing the seat lenght x width and match it at toys r us seats or where ever you prefer
