Car recommendations from toddler parents?
We're starting to shop for a used car, and having a hard time finding recommendations and ratings from parents, like safety features, and if can kids have side air bags? And also on space for car seats - currently am getting kicked! Any answers on what you drive, and whether you like it would be great! We'll have 2 convertible car seats in there, and only care if they fit - not if someone can fit between them.

You need a car like a caravan, more comfortable when it comes to kids! has space for the two toddler seats and extra space on back for more ppl.

I have a Honda civic 4 door with child locks. My 3 year old sits behind the driver seat. I personally recommend a 4 door car, it's so much easier to go in and out with a child that way. A 2 door is so much harder to work. You end up climbing in to get the child or contorting yourself to put the car seat in. Very hard.
As for safety features, my car is older so the LATCH system was not around yet. But LATCH is good, Childproof doors are VERY important in my mind. Would not want your little one to open the door at 65 mph down the road.
I personally recommend a Honda, they are great cars, have lots of room and run for ever.
Best of luck!

The Picasso's are great cos you can get both seats in the back (or in the front for a treat and turn off the airbag), still get someone or stuff in the middle and with only the handbreak on the floor you can walk from the front to the back of the car really easily. My vote at the moment. Oh and plenty of room for the stroller, pram and some shopping. (and the odd football). Oh and it sits a bit higher which makes it much easier for getting them in and out.

I have a Mazda 3 hatchback and it is wonderful. Two car seats fit easily in the back with plenty of room. My husband is 6'4" and when he puts the front seat all the way back my daughter still has room to kick her feet. There is also plenty of room in the hatchback for a stroller and all the other baby gear!

We have a Nissian Quest. It has child lock safety. It has room for the my kids car seats and a back seat for anyone else. Also good size trunk for stroller and groceries. My kids love the van because we have a TV in it...also keeps them entertained when we are traveling. Good luck on your car search!!

We have a Buick LeSabre. It's very roomy, with lots of trunk space for strollers and such. It's a 4-door, with the back doors having the child safety feature. We've had it for a year (we bought it used) and we love it. It's very comfortable, and gets good gas mileage.

I have a GMC Envoy and like it. Prior I had a Ford Explorer and to be honest, liked it better. It was roomier. I have a lot of friends who drive the Honda Odyssey, minivan, and swear by it.
