Maybe time to update that recommended seats list now, though, eh? What with the 40 lb. RF seats on the market and all.
Very, very impressive. Great work and a great resource. Thanks to you guys, thousands (maybe millions) of parents have a straightforward, current, smart place to research their very important purchases. Looking forward to Year 2!
Those are some really great stats. Keep making the world safer, one carseat at a time.
