That's partly why we are waiting 5-6yrs for no.3, I really dont want a 7 seater Lol Our car has 3 proper seatbelts and we have tried a booster and 2 car seats, didn't fit x

My friend has a vauxhall meriva and fits stage 0, a highback booster and a booster ine the back. I think its a case of trial and error and where you place the seats

Not sure what you have right now but I have seen many, many cars with 2 seats & a booster in the backseat... I'm always in awe of how they fit in there but apparently you can do it with many North American cars. For what it's worth I love my aunt's Suburban lol, very roomy in the back on long drives... just a pain to park when you're used to a car!!

I think I will die the day I end up driving one of these:

Our primary car (the family one) is a malibu. They are known for being a spacious car but I can't see it for some reason. We could probably do it if one of the seats was a booster but it would be a tight squeeze. Could be because my sons convertible car seat is HUGE though. My husband is kind of excited at the thought of getting a suburban, it was his first vehicle. I'm kind of nervous that I'll ram into things haha, and I really don't want to get a van. I'm like you and refuse to be seen driving one!

LOL that's so funny I've never noticed that about the TV shows. Maybe because I'm so used to seeing them. I love how spacious they are. It's one of the only vehicles my little guy doesn't get car sick in. We will probably end up buying one even if we only have two kids just for that reason.

i think thats why i love them hon, they are just so unusual here! that is wonderful about no sickness in the suburban, we have a lot of hatchbacks here, more than anything

We could do with a 7 seater, its not so bad at the moment, just gotta make sure nicole is fastened in before we put charlie in the back, but its gonna be a nightmare once charlie is in his big carseat, no room whatsoever!!
