It already was happily ever after, but the more giant things I bring home/haul (steam cleaners, vacuums, travel systems, dog crate, etc.) the more I love this car more and more every day.Went to pick up my crib and rails order, worrying if the boxes would fit. The store employee loaded the two oversized boxes in the back and I'm like "YES!! I LOVE THIS CAR!!" It would have accomodated the crib, the rails, the mattress, bedding set, and one of each item of the whole stinkin' babies (are) us. I'm waiting for my neighbor to come home to help me drag it out of the car so I can put it together and go get a mattress tomorrow or Saturday.

Pretty soon you can practice loading the dogs AND the baby!!!

looks like a party

i think you can fit a dozen or two babies in there too!

^ ^ (No thanks)

DONE!! ...my slick black crib!

ppppurtyNo trees were harmed in the making of that crib right???? HAHAHA thats all recycled wood right?

Very nice!!! Hopefully a tree was felled, ripped, sawn, edged, planed, notched, painted and packed to make it!

The vibe has a nice large section in the back but I think you might be in for a shock when you load your baby in the back seat. I have 5 month old twins & they are carted around in them infant carriers. I put the bases in the back seat so the carrier can just click in place & it fits but you have to move your front seats up a little. So if your a tall guy. I am 5'9, you wont have much leg room.

nice colour choice --- beauty with having a 2nd is we can reuse the 1st crib Quote, originally posted by Airmack »I put the bases in the back seat so the carrier can just click in place & it fits but you have to move your front seats up a little.

Damp shoulder but Lots of leg room though!Dave

It'll be OK...since I already have my seat all the way forward...really short Asian, not a guy, and the dogs are really short Germans, so no trouble with dog drool either

Your dogs will really appreciate when your child is old enough to sit in the car seat and eat snacks. Children drop a good portion of what they pick up!Your child will quickly become your dogs FAVORITE person!!!Dave

Oh no, Dave....there'll be no mooching of snacks. I don't allow the dogs loose in the car. It's either the crate with the cargo straps around it, or the carry bag with the seat belt around it. Yep, E-III, Unbelievable how fast it has gone by, and smooth sailing. I never had any morning sickness or other nasty symptoms the books warn you about. Right now I get entertained by watching my belly move, "Aliens" style. Next I'll see a HAND sticking out through my skin LOLToday I picked up the mattress which I loaded and unloaded myself under one arm; decided not to take a pic to show how nicely it fit in the back of the cargo (my case is still pending.) I will air the mattress out to let the formaldehyde/flame resistant chemicals off-gas before putting it in the crib.

Poor creatures.Not to mention the Grandchild based treats he gets, in the car and in the house! We don't feed him from the table but the grandkids giggle so when they "accidentally drop things." Our job with the kids is simple, spoil and then return them.Dave

They'll just have to be content with being tossed organic carrots and things at home.
