Ok - I have finally narrowed down my decision to the MBUD. I have only been able to see the 2006 single but really really liked it. I have read the differences between the 2005 and the 2006. I think I can go with the 2005 and save about $100 but my only concern is the sun shade. The 2006 says it is 2" higher. So my question is how much of a difference will this make? My twins are only 12 months old. They are about 50% for height. Don't expect them to be really tall. How important is this feature. Also, if you have an MBUD are you really happy with it? Any downfalls?
Thanks!!!!

The 2006 canopy is higher than the previous years but not as high as the extra tall canopy. On the other hand, *I* think the xtall canopy is poorly designed b/c it's higher in the front and not in the back where it actually matters. And, the new one is not 2" higher, it's 2cm higher (less than an inch). If you end up buying the xtall canopy, it's only $45.

I would definitely go with the 2005 if I got it for $100 or $150 less than the 2006. I have pics on my web site of the MBUD with and w/o the xtall canopy (it's in the "outdoor double strollers"). My DD is in the pic almost 4 and she's in the 90th % in height. The two bigger kids in the pics are older but only in the 10th% or less :-)
