GMC Acadia + Convertible Car Seat

I was just wondering if any of you wonderful ladies drive a GMC Acadia or a Chevy Traverse. 

I am on the hunt to a find a convertible seat that actually fits/works in an Acadia. I originally bought a Britax Boulevard ClickTight (which I ABSOLUTELY LOVE in my hubby's truck), but the angle of my stupid vehicle seat, makes it darn near impossible to get the angle of the seat right when it is rear facing (took my hubby and I over an hour one day to get it to sit at the right angle in my vehicle). Our plan was to just use one seat in both vehicles because it was soo easy to install, but no such luck. I have been googling carseats like crazy but am having no luck. 

**I have tried a few different seat in my vehicle and they all tip forward** 

Re: GMC Acadia + Convertible Car Seat

  • I have an Acadia and had to put a rolled up towel under the seat base.

  • We have been driving my aunt's Toyota Highlander for a week and our 3 Radians have fit perfectly in it. My britax did not get a good fit at all or at least didn't give enough leg room for the person in front. So I would recommend checking out the radian (with the angle adjuster).
  • Also I have read that the Chicco Keyfit have more space between seats. I think it was Keyfit.

  • Thanks soo much! I will check it out later today!
  • I have both the clicktight boulevard and advocate and have not had any issues. I have a traverse. What is the issue with the angle? I have mine somewhere along the middle and haven't had any issues.
  • I had a traverse and now an Acadia and the slope of the back seats in the Acadia create an issue. I think I may have figured out a solution. Now to try it tomorrow.
