[quote=Anonymous]Something I haven’t seen mentioned yet is leg room. Even in vans and mid-size SUVs, rear facing car seats eat up a lot of leg space for the driver and front passenger. If you plan to have another kid within 2 years, you’ll have 2 rear facing. My 6’ DH is uncomfortable in the driver’s seat of our Ford Explorer when there’s a RF car seat behind him. We now have 3 kids and 2 biggish dogs that we travel with often, and I drive a Suburban (bought it right before DS3 was born, DH took the Explorer). We also have a tall family friend who switched to a Suburban after seeing the front leg room difference between our vehicle and their van. The Explorer is great now that two of our kids forward-face/sit in a booster, but in those baby years we didn’t love it. The Tahoe is the same size inside as the Suburban, just a shorter trunk. If you folded down half the back row, you’d have room for a dog.[/quote]
