If anyone has two child seats installed, would you be able to take a photo and maybe a measurement of the space between them? I'm curious if it's going to be possible for someone to squeeze between them.

Personally we have two - one rear facing and one forward facing, for the time being. So if you have that specific setup that would be cool too :)

I temporarily moved mine to the grandparents car while they are visiting this week. I head out to pick them up this weekend and can snap a pic after I move them back into the truck. It's a booster and a forward facing seat. There's a lot of room. With one forward and one backward, you could have the rear on the side and forward in the middle....if you're brave enough to put them next to each other :)

I don't have a picture but I have a forward face and rear facing car seat and my mom was able to sit between the two without an issue. She is smaller but I think someone of average height and weight could comfortably fit.

we also have one forward-facing, one rear facing, and i think someone could easily fit in between them.

As others have said, you can configure two car seats however you want and an average size human will be able to join them. I think the preferred setup would be one car seat in the middle as a side seat would be more comfortable than the middle but you know your situation.

There is plenty of space for an adult to fit between the two car seats. Depending on how you measure around 20” in width.

Hell no! You always always keep the kids as far apart as possible! I have had some combo of 3 boosters or car seats for 4 years. My back seat is so much more peaceful when I only have 2 of the 3 kids in the back and they are separated.

But to answer the question a full-size full cab truck handles two car seats and an adult or even three car seats just fine. It worked great with my Nissan titan until I upgraded to the lightning, which works equally as good.

Ha! This is literally the reason I had to upgrade from my last car. 3rd kid. And I couldn’t be happier. There is plenty of room for all 3 kids. rear facing and booster were used at first, and my oldest had plenty of room. Now we just have the rear facing in the middle, with daughter and oldest son on either side.

To clarify, I meant the preferred setup for comfort for.the adult. I'm imagining grandma getting in and out. It's easier if you don't have to get around a car seat. For every day driving, keep them apart.
