    2013 Prius vs 2013 Legacy

    Please advise :) I'm in the market for a newer vehicle, but I'm torn. The Prius would save me money on gas, I'd get a discount for parking at work (fuel efficient discount), and it's the color I want (I know, lol). The Legacy has better safety ratings. I'm open to suggestions for another...

    I'm teaching the CPS portion of Safety Town...

    I could use some suggestions on what to talk about. I'll have 5 groups of 12 kids, about 20 minutes for each group. These are mostly 4 & 5 year olds. The officer in charge just said "really emphasize buckling up, and what air bags are", and he showed me a little car and ramp that he puts an...

    Which boosters allow for tether (but no lower anchor) use?

    I know a few seats allow lower anchor and top tether use, like the Frontier, Nautilus, Young Sport, Sympohony... But are there any, other than the Start that allow for just top tether use and still provide a good belt fit? Thanks!!
