I have 3 and drive an Acura MDX. We have a Marathon and 2 boosters across the middle seat. It seats 7. I love it!

I have a Chevy Traverse, I got it when we started thinking about #2. My neighbor had a Jeep Grand Cherokee and traded it in for a Traverse too since they are getting ready to have #3. We both love it (and FWIW their 2nd car is a Caravan).

ALL 3 of my kids are in convertible carseats. My 5YO is not 40lbs so I won't put her in a booster. I drive a minivan.

You don't HAVE to drive a minivan with 3+ kids, but I can tell you that if your 3 are close in age and you'll be in convertible seats for a while, it is MUCH easier and more convenient to drive a minivan. The sliding doors, the fact that it's low to the ground, etc. make it very easy for all 3 of my kids to climb in and out.

GL in your search!

DH and I each have a sedan. Right now we have a base in each car for the baby's seat and we used to have a convertible seat in each car. I always knew in the back of my head that the limit for the convertible was 40lbs. My oldest has been just under that (around 37-39lbs each time I weigh him) FOREVER but he keeps growing taller. There must be a height limit too, but I never bothered to look it up...then when I tried to put him in it with his coat on this winter I could NOT get the straps all the way fastened, so I finally went to a booster with him, and we just share one for both our cars.

We COULD fit 3 seats of some sort in both our cars, but that would suck. I like the small SUVs best.

Thank you everyone, we have the Honda oddesey right now and love it but want a second car that works as well. We have an inifiti fx and g that are going back soon, funny that a few if you mentioned the mdx bc my DH is really considering that. Thanks again!!

We went ahead and got a Honda Pilot when we found out I was pg with DS. Right now we have DD's convertible and DS's infant seat in the middle row. For kicks I wanted to see if 2 convertible seats would fit with an infant seat in the middle row, and all 3 seats fit! We are planning on TTC#3 when DS is 12 months old, so I'm really glad we have the big middle row and extra third row seating!

We are having our 4th child and I drive a 1999 Suburban. I love it. Well, except for the gas mileage.

I am about to buy the Mazda 5. We take DH's Acura RDX on trips, so it is just for around town. It holds 4 car seats. The RDX can have 2 car seats and a booster, but not 3 car seats (it says it in the manual, so no puzzeling). I have a volvo wagon, the smaller one, it only holds 2 car seats, not even 2 car seats and a booster. I have Sunshine Radian seats.
