Fitting 3 Carseats in a Chrysler 300M?

Okay I know the Radian80 and Radian65 is the BEST and will def fit but I have twins (2-years old) and one on the way due july 2010. No I cant not afford a new car We (me and DH) are both full time students so we have to save as much as possible is there. So we need 2-carseats for toddlers and an infant seat. Is there any CHEAPER carseats out there that we can buy other than those?! I was looking at the Evenflo and it looked good only ...I am willing to pay 100 for a carseat and yes if we have to i will pay the 230 for the Radian ones but I do NOT want to that is to much!

I want something SAFE and that may have extended harnessing my 2 year olds are still rear facing and we will turn them around when this one is born.

    Well it really depends on how much your two year olds weigh. I had a really hard time finding car seats that would fit three wide across the back seat of my van that were not super expensive. I finally got Cosco Sceneras. I love them! They are 54 dollars about and can be rear facing from 5-35lbs and front facing from 22-40 lbs. They are pretty slender compared to a lot of the other seats i looked at and tall enough that my toddlers didn’t look super uncomfortable. The only down side is that they only go up to 40lbs, so if you don’t feel your child will be ready for a booster seat by then, you will have to purchase another 5 point harness.

    Some of my other kids are in Graco Nautilus but they are more spendy. About $140. I couldn’t get my infant seat and two of those in the back, so those two are in the middle seats. But I do LOVE them.

    It does come in neutral colors as well.

    We have 3 kids under the age of 2 also, and we were able to fit our two toddler seats and our infant seat into a HONDA CIVIC! we have all 3 Evenflo brand. and they fit, its a very tight squeeze for our kids in the back but we cannot afford a bigger car yet. I have both my older daughters facing forward and our son-the baby in the infant seat, the way we did it was have the two girls on the ends and the baby in the middle, its easier for me to reach back and reach him faster. if you want to have the older too sitting next to each other, the way we do it is have the infant seat behind the passengers seat that way if you are on the freeway you can easily pull over and take care of the baby. Our car seats are safe, the do have the extended harnessing and we used all the latches on all 3 seats. I think your car is probably way more roomier than a civic so maybe it wont be as bad as a civic. Good luck :]
