HELP ME PICK A NEW MOM CAR
As a mom of two and both are
rear facing in car seats
The large car seats it needs to fit
and still have legroom
For reference, currently driving
my husbands Yukon and the leg
room in the second row is limited.
I'd rather have a smaller car and
same leg room. Or a car with a
better use of space
Lexus TX is high on my list
Has ceiling vents in second row
(non-negotiable)
Not outrageous in price
Mercedes GLE
Love it, need to see if I could get
my hands on one with upper
ceiling vents in second row. Seems
spacious. If we had a third, could
possibly outgrow it but also fits 3
across on the bench.
Nissan armada
I loved my Altima, but is this the same size as the Yukon?
It's so nice inside but can't tell on second row leg room.
Would need to go test drive. Has come recommended!
Infiniti QX65
Love the way Infiniti's drive, not crazy about it but it's cute
and maybe I'd love?
Mercedes GLS
I don't know much about Mercedes so that makes me
worried. Where as I know Lexus' are great.
Con:
Highest on the list
Pros:
Would fit growing family and love the air vent situation
and so pretty
Also these pictures always make me laugh be
who in their right mind is doing this with
Mercedes or Lexus? Or any luxury vehicle
Would've been my first choice or Lincoln aviator but no
upper ceiling vents and that's a deal breaker in Texas
