After much research, I decided to get this car seat. Although I drive a Saturn Ion and when the car seat was rear facing the passenger seat was cramped it is only for a few months and I could deal with it. I wanted a car seat that would be comfortable for my little one since we do a lot of 12 hour trips to visit family in Ohio and Florida. I think what I love the most about this seat is that the straps are so easy to adjust you can even do it with your little one in the car seat. You know they grow so fast!! Plus some days its cold and you have to make room for a jacket and then the next day it's warm and the straps need to be tightened again. I definitely recommend this car seat!!!
