Can I fit three booster seats in the back bench of my Dodge Grand Caravan?
I have a 2001 dodge Grand caravan with two bucket seats and a back
bench. My four children (all in car seats/boosters) fit fine, but I don't have room for a friend. Does anyone know if it is possible to fit 2 boosters and a car seat in the back bench? Since there is no shoulder strap in the center of the bench, I would have to put a car seat there, and two boosters on either side. The car seats and boosters i own, however, do not fit on the bench all together. Does anyone have any suggestion? KHL |

If you have enough proper seat belts to properly use with the seats, and if they all fit on the seat without falling off or something, then why not? My suggestion is if you don't have room for a friend, then your friend needs to take their own vehicle. I can't fit any friends in my car with my kids in, so friends and the like need their own way around, as I am not a taxi, and to attempt to accommodate others if it's unsafe or illegal is not my bouquet of roses. |

You'll have to measure and see if you can find other carseats and boosters that are acceptable to you that will fit. You'll have a hard time getting three across in most cars/vans. The backless boosters tend to be a bit smaller, and some carseats are narrower than others. It's very tight quarters with three in child restraints across the back, though, and the carseats/ boosters you'd need to make it fit might be too small for the kids (depending on the size of your kids).

Can I fit three booster seats in the back bench of my Dodge Grand Caravan?
We got 3 car seats to fit in a 89 dodge caravan. Our intrepid would fit 3
also. for your instance though it helps a bit if one of the car seats is rear facing.... That might not be possible though. When we did it it was with 2 highback boosters and my daughters seat. is it possible for an adult to sit in the way back with the little ones? Tori "khl" wrote in message oups.com...

Tori I was also able to get 3 to fit very well in my Intrepid. While it's not the same ... I'm able to put 3 seats in my Scion xB with no problem at all and it is a much smaller car.

You could always get a travel car seat for when your friend is going to be
with you.. it is much smaller then a regular car seat. Tori "khl" wrote in message oups.com...

Hi Tori- Great ideas. I will see if I put the baby's rear facing car seat in back center-- if that works. Also, what type/brand of car seats/boosters do you have? Thanks. |
