1. Does anyone have the Instep Safari Double jogging stroller http://www.amazon.com/o/ASIN/B000IORPYW/ref=s9_asin_image_1/002-4732618-8532818 ? If no, which one do you have?
2. Are you able to fit the double jogging stroller you have in the trunk of a sedan (namely Toyota Corolla)
3. Do you recommend the stroller you have to others, and why?
Also: I’m wanting to get it for exercise walking ~4 miles per day. I expect that my oldest child, who will turn 4 in July, will eventually end up sitting in it each time we are out walking, but at what age do children absolutely refuse to sit in a stroller?
I know I’m asking for a lot of info, so thank you in advance for taking the time, if there’s anything else you’d like to share in reference to a double jogging stroller I’d be grateful.

I have a 2006 Toyota corolla. Is there a way to disconnect the buzzer that sounds if the seatbelts are not plugged in.
Please not commnets on the use and safety of seat belts.
I know all about the pros and cons of wearing them. Seat belts are NOT required where we live.

I want one that has very high safety ratins, and is small enough to fit in a toyota corolla that will allow for two more seats to also fit in. Plus, it has to be comfortable enough for long trips, and preferably, be a convertible seat that he can use for a few years. Any suggestions? What do you use? Thanks!

My son is 7 months old and in the 97% for height & 75% for weight (18lb 10oz & 28.5in @ 6mo)
I have a Chicco keyfit22, and a Graco Comfortsport (haven’t used it yet – bought as a backup)
My only problem is that I have a small car! (2005 Toyota Corolla S) I want to get a bigger car but that is not feasible right now.
Does anyone have any recommendations for top rated convertible car seats that will fit? I want to rear face as long as possible.

My baby girl is currently 16 lbs 8 oz and 27 inches at 9 months old, so she is still well within the height/weight requirements of her infant seat. However, she is starting to fight, cry, and struggle every time I put her in her infant seat (or lay her down in the infant tub or changing table for that matter). A few friends told me that switching to the convertible seat will help because they can sit up (which is what she wants to do). I’m researching car seats, and it seems like the big kahuna on the market right now is the Britax Advocate. Does anyone have one? If so, what do you think? I drive a Toyota Corolla–do you think it would be too big? Is it really heavy to move between cars (my husband is deployed right now so I would have to move it myself if I choose to drive the other car). The price tag is steep, but I’m not basing my decision off of that because I saved money when I was pregnant for a convertible seat some day. I just want the best possible seat. Also, are the side cushion thingys on the Advocate effected by side curtain air bags on your car? Our Scion xB has side curtain air bags

-Used or New, as long as it fits the budget (see below)
-A budget of a price between k and k
-Small
-Four doors
-Side air bags
-Needs to have a high safety rating
-Air conditioning and radio
-Not leather seats
Beyond that I’m not sure of anything else I should want. I don’t expect anyone to research for a car based on these things but if you know of one off-hand that matches these or close to these I’d just like to know about it. Thanks!
So far I have become aware of the Honda Civic 2007 Sedan, the Honda Fit 2008, and the Toyota Corolla 2008. If you have any reasons why I should/should not get these three cars I’d love to hear them.

I am in the market to get a convertible car seat for My 13 months old daughter. She weighs 20 lbs and is 30 inches tall.
I want to keep her rear facing as long as possible and i am debating between Britax boulevard and Evenflo Symphony 65. Which one is better (Ignoring the price factor)?
Also, I have a 2004 Jeep Liberty and 1997 toyota corolla. Any idea whether these car seats will fit in?

I have a 26 mo old (approx 40 lbs and 3ft tall) and a 4 mo old, who is in an infant seat. My 4 mo old is getting too big for his seat and I want to put him in my other son’s car seat (Britax Marithon convertable carseat) and buy my older son a toddler/booster seat. Any suggestions/opinions as to the best ones out there? I definately want one with a 5 point harness, but there are so many to choose from and when I look it up on the internet, there are so many different opinions from different companies. Please let me know which ones you use and how you like them. THX!
Money is always an issue, but when it comes to my babies, I will spend what I need to as long as they are safe. That said, I was looking at the Britax Regent and that seat is huge. We have a Toyota Corolla and I am concerned about it fitting. Is there any seat as good as Britax but not so big?

Keeping in mind the size of the Toyota Corolla and that my one-year-old spends a fair amount of time in the car…… What Would You Choose?

there is just one problem with this. i am 6’2”, so the driver’s seat has to be really roomy.
it has to be really safe. good crash test rating
and it can’t be too old. it has to be a used car.
as a permit holder, i am driving a 2006 toyota corolla and it is so small… i have trouble getting in and out

The car is a toyota corolla 2007 and the seats have stains so I need to cover them up with a seat cover but I don’t know which color would go nicely with tan. I have an ornament for the rearview mirror that has black beads, red clay flowers, and a mini clay cow.
Thanks!
And the car does not have side airbags.
