Does anyone know whether a rear-facing car/infant seat would fit in an 07 or 08 Toyota Tacoma Double-cab? I am thinking of buying one of these, but necessitate to make sure it will fit fine (and not "cramp" the front passenger too much. Thanks for any help/info you can provide.
Take that form to the dealer or whoever has the vehicle for mart and check this out for yourself. There really isn't a reliable way to know if this truck will work for your situation.
I am the proud owner of a 1999 Dodge Dakota plus cab because the babe-in-arms seat wouldn't fit in this model, so they (the couple who owned it in the past me) sold it and bought a different one. It works for me because a forward facing child seat (for an older child - they have a baby) fits (in the rear) safely and comfortably for me, the front passenger (an adult) and the child in stern.
Yes, this truck has the key switch to turn stale the passenger air bag, but I don't inevitability to resort to that. I hope you will avoid doing that too.
If there are any problems with the fit of the form or a lack of safe distance from the dashboard and airbags for the front form passenger, skip the models you are looking at and move on to another style. You might not have any trouble though because the newer models are a great deal roomier than the earlier ones.
Better safe than sorry!
Good luck to you!
I enjoy a 2006 Tacoma Double Cab and the rear facing car form fit good in the middle of the put money on seat. When it was directly bringing up the rear the passenger it was a little cramped. We used a "snap and go" style next to the base left within the car and it worked good, but be a little hard to lift up the car seat to the stub frequently. We still have the truck, but the daily driver is immediately a 2008 xB, which is extremely easy to put a rear facing or forward facing motor seat in the backbone and not cramp the front passenger. From my research I found that at least 34 inches of rear form leg room is needed in the back for a dutiful fit. The 2006 Tacoma Double Cab has about 32 inches and the Scion xB have about 39 inches.
If the vehicle has no stern seat, such as a pickup truck, an infant will be safe contained by a rear-facing child seat only if the vehicle does not hold a passenger side air bag or if it have a cutoff switch for the passenger side air bag.
In summary, culture riding in the front seat who are most possible to be injured or killed by an inflating air pod are:
infants riding in rear-facing car seating
children age 12 and under who are not properly secured in a restraint system that is to say appropriate for their size -a forward facing safety seat, booster form, or correct fitting lap and shoulder belt
children or adults who are not buckled up
children or adults who place the shoulder belt either astern their back or under their arm
people sitting too close to the steering wheel or dashboard so that they come into contact with the atmosphere bag before it is fully inflated.

Answers: Here's a place you can look to see what other people did or didn't enjoy luck with, keeping in mind i.e. reported by consumers just like you, not experts, and that some of the seating mentioned are not sold anymore:
http://www.carseatdata.org/main/search?e...
If at all possible, people near children should not have pickup trucks as their primary vehicle, even if it has a backseat. It can be difficult to seize seats to fit right, and leaves very little room. Also, it provides more risk for serious injury b/c the child is so close to that flipside window, with nil in between them and the glass. So, since you're solitary considering it, in my humble opinion, I'd read aloud...consider something else if this is to be the primary car the child rides in.
IF i.e. not at all possible, or its a secondary vehicle that doesn't fetch the child that much: you should be able to find something that works. To be able to sustain more, though, I'd really need to know the child's age - or is he not here yet?
No issue what seat you choose - odds are the front form will end up pushed forward quite a bit, there's only just not enough room to install a seat otherwise surrounded by such a small space. One tip that can help, is to try and install the rear facing form in the middle of the backseat. Not only is it safer (if it installs capably there) but if it works out just right, the back of the reverse facing seat will jutt out between the 2 front seats and thus not hinder how far they can be pushed back.
One highest thing to consider - if I was putting my little one into a rear facing car form in a truck, I would want it to be tethered. Most car places in the US only tether forward facing, but at hand are 3 that can be tethered rear facing as well: Britax spaces, and Sunshine Kids seats (wouldn't recommend the Sunshine Kids Radian65/80, though, definitely not a honourable seat for taking up less room front to put money on, though they are very narrow.) and the Fisher Price Safe Voyage Deluxe, which is a Britax form made under the Fisher Price name. See, within an accident, the seat will bounce back, and your precious baby's face could very expected be thrown towards the back of the truck, smashing into the glass. Having the reverse facing seat tethered to the floor helps prevent this.
So here's the chairs to be looking at with this feature:
Fisher Price Safe Voyage Deluxe - The Fisher Price Safe Voyage Deluxe Convertible form is great, it is made by Britax, without all the frills. It's alike shell as a Marathon, but for less than half the price. $130 at Albee Baby online next to free shipping, or at their eBay name, babysurplus. Rear faces to 33lbs, forward to 55lbs. Easy to use, fits contained by most cars. A small word of warning about these chairs: they are now officially not making them anymore, so the date of create is getting older and older, next to many being deliver that are 6+ months old already. Since car places expire 6 years after the date of manufacture, this could make a difference to you, especially since its possible your child could fit within the seat for the next 5-6 years.
Britax Marathon/Decathalon/Boulevard: The Britax Marathon/Boulevard/Decathalon (These 3 are alike seat, just different variances of luxury additions, near the Marathon being the cheapest base model) can be found for regular price of $269, and on mart at Albee Baby online for $209-$219. The Marathon a wide open straightforward to route belt path, which makes using it correctly greatly easier, as do the built in lockoffs, which mean you never again hold to use a locking clip. I can get it into 4 different vehicles within under 2 minutes. Because of the way the bed is made, it fits in most cars. And, it is worth the money, b/c it lasts usually twice as long as most other coup¨¦ seats (all car spaces expire 6 years after the date of manufacture) lasting a baby till they are 5-6 years antiquated, where most at Walmart will only final till 2-4 years old. Rear faces to 33lbs, next forward to 65lbs. and top slots 17inches tall, lasts most kids to ages 5-6 years weak. Britax is having one of their semiannual sales from February 24 - March 2. You could snag a Britax form for $200 or less including shipping!
Now - if this is a newborn we're talking give or take a few, that does change the recommendations, some, as plentiful newborns will be too small to fit safely into the chairs mentioned above, since they are convertible seats. If that were the defence - I would get a cheap Cosco Scenera ($50 at Walmart/Target/Kmart) and use it for the first couple months until the child fit into one of the seats above and consequently keep it as a spare seat. It can not be tethered reverse facing, but it is a good seat for the price, cheaper than most infant carrier, and it will provide you with a spare seat you can use for the subsequent 2-3 years, whereas most infant carriers are outgrown at about 4-7 months of age.
As for infant carrier - they're all pretty similar in size. Again, try and install contained by the middle to see if it gets a good fit, it might tender the passengers up frotn more room. Generally though, rear facing convertible spaces will fit better in small vehicles later infant seats: they just whip up less room, especially as the baby get older, b/c they only hold to have the seat at a 45 level angle for the first 5 months or so, and then it can be put a little more adjectives giving a little more room to the front.
If the vehicle has no stern seat, such as a pickup truck, an infant will be safe contained by a rear-facing child seat only if the vehicle does not hold a passenger side air bag or if it have a cutoff switch for the passenger side air bag.
In summary, culture riding in the front seat who are most possible to be injured or killed by an inflating air pod are:
