Sorry for the shameless beg, but DH was just in an accident and we need to replace the car seat. We have a little time since there is no ETA on when the car will be fixed. I'm having trouble searching for what I need. Pretty please with sugar on top could you help me?

We had the Britax Marathon for both of our cars. Love it. Mine will stay in my car, his needs to be replaced, obviously.

Car: 06 Lexus ES330
DD: 4.5 years old
36 pounds
3'7" tall

We'd like to keep her in a 5 point until she's basically ready to drive herself :)

Thoughts? Thanks so much!

Britax Frontier? Possibly a Radian XT

Britax Frontier or Graco Nautilus are good choices :)

Britax Frontier or Graco Nautilus. Both will harness for a while yet and then turn to a booster. They'll last longer than your MA harnessed, too, I believe.

Thanks so much!!! I think we'll be doing the Frontier if I can find one local to try out. I really appreciate it!

We've been really happy with our Frontiers. I think that's a good choice.
