| I am looking for 2 recommendations: (A) a rental car class other than minivan that will fit 3 car seats across the back seat(s), and (B) a rental car type that will fit 3 car seats plus still have room for 4 grownups. I have 3 kids: 4 yo who's just over 40 lbs, 2.5 yo who's about 30 lbs?, and 13 mo who's just over 20 lbs. for everyday use, I have 3 Cosco Alpha Omega Elite's, which I love but they are definitely bulky. I drive a Mazda 5 (6 seats, 3 rows) and they all fit fine ff though I wish the back row had full latch and it has no trunk space left when all 3 rows are up. I also have 2 spare car seats (Cosco High Back Booster Car Seat and Evenflo Big Kid Excalibur Booster Seat) for (A) - when we go to visit our family back east I can never find a good price on renting a minivan. is there another rental car class (or specific car) that would hold all 3 seats in the back? I have a belt-positioning booster carseat and a 5 pt harness carseat (don't remember the model specifics) that I leave there and could purchase a 3rd carseat to leave there or bring one of ours from here. for (B) - when we have visitors here, we sometimes rent a minivan. even using our narrower spare car seats it is usually very difficult to fit a grownup into the 3rd row. we have also had problems before putting a car seat in the (bench-style) middle row of a minivan using the shoulder belt which makes climbing into the back seat very tricky. any specific brands of minivans or maybe larger SUVs that handle 3 car seats plus 4 grown ups gracefully? thanks!
