Stopping by Tate today

Hey everyone - I'll be stopping by Tate today to take a look around. Most likely going to be waiting for the '07's to come in, but I wan't to check out how the car seat is going to fit in the back of a MCS.
Anyone know if the back seat room will be any different in the '07's?
Will report back on the experience.


Thanks!

Car seats fit fine back there, and the 02-06 models come with car seat snap-ins built in. Pretty neat feature imho. I would assume the 07's would include that as well.

Vanderspunk (old DCMM member, not sure what he's up to now) has 2 baby seats in the back of his Mini.

Not the best pic evar, but he has a shot in his gallery where you can see the tops of the 2 car seats:


I'm sure theres better shots out there somewhere...

Ok we went over to Tate and started looking around. Brian came out to talk with us and was very helpful. We put our Britax Marathon in the backseat and it fit. They had a small brochure on the '07's that I took a look at as well. According to what they said, the '07 demos may come in around the beginning of the year.
So now it's wait and see!
