Getting new car..advice?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Ok to get to the third row, you have to put down either the passenger side back seat or the drivers side one. It goes down the flips up. Not a huge PIA, unless your car seats are buckled in in those spots. Then yes a pain. The only option that worked for me was a car seat in middle and on one side, leaving that other side open. That make it a pain to get the child out and in of that middle seat. But to be honest, my kids all fit comfortably in the second row, car seats and all. I only used the third row when transporting extra kids.

The expedition and any similar SUVs have the same layout to get to the third row. I keep mine folded down 99% of the time. A mini van is the only vehicle I can think of with more friendly layout. I'm not a mini van kinda chick though lol.

Dude same here im not a mini van chick at all!!! hence why im looking for a truck too. I initially got a mini van because when the babies are under 1yo a adult would ride next to them. So it use to be me and the baby in the second row and older kids in the third row. I didnt know back then suvs came with third row.

Ballin 6'1 and u got in fine then sounds good to me. No one in my group is over 6 feet lol.

My explorer is a 98 with a 04 engine,Eddie Bauer..
I love it I just want something new
I am in the same boat as you,but between a tacoma 07,04 4runner,04 Audi fx35,03 Titan,07 Infiniti, or a 03 jaguar stype r..
But I'm more into what's more reliable that won't break down as much or won't cost a Lot to fix

I would stay away from the titan and are you sure the titan is an 03? The Nissan Titian was released in 2004. But just a heads up most of the titans within in the first 2 years were riddled with problems. If you need 4x4 go with the Tacoma if your looking for more roomier rider go with the 4runner. They all cost a tone but the other 3 will cost a lot more to fix repair wise. Infiniti is to Nissan what Lexus is to Toyota. Just higher end.
