For those of you with Britax convertible carseats... Which one do you have, and why did you choose to buy the model that you did? We're in the market for one, since DD is getting rather tall for her infant bucket seat.

We have the advocate 70cs.
Chose it because.. It had the most safety features and had the print I wanted.

We have the boulevard because it was free with the britax registry rewards. We plan to switch over to it in a month or two (LO is almost 8 months).

We have two Boulevard seats!
@chopsuey119: I love that print!

We got the marathon. A big selling point for me was it has the click adjustable straps, the Peres have to be rethreaded.

We went with the boulevard too. No rethread, the lap portion stays upright so its easier to get her in and out. I also wanted the zebra pattern so that was a factor for us.

Ok, now I am sad. I was looking at the print options, and it looks like they have discontinued their "cowmooflage" cow-spotted pattern. Is it crazy that I was really looking forward to DD's cow-spotted carseat?

@skibobrown: our infant seat was cow pattern and I lurved it! I had to have the chaperone for that reason, so I totally get it.

@skibobrown: They have the cowmooflage pattern in the Marathon on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Britax-Marathon-70-G3-Convertible-Seat/dp/B00834D5SO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1357088906&sr=8-1&keywords=britax+marathon+70+g3

We have the Marathon. Honestly, we chose it because we found a good deal on it, and knew we couldn't lose with whatever Britax we chose.

@skibobrown: they still have cowmooflage on albeebaby.com - that's where we got out seat

Oooh.. Maybe we'll get the Pavillion then. Or the Boulevard or Advocate if we can find them in the discontinued cowmooflage. After reading more about the carseat options, I think we want as much side impact protection as we can get, since we drive a long stretch of high-speed, accident-prone highway fairly regularly.

We went with the Marathon. Basically, it was because it has a few more features than the Roundabout, but not super expensive. We'll probably move to a Diono Radian when we get a bigger car and keep the Marathon for #2.

Diapers.com should still have cowmooflage too- I just bought our convertible seat from there in that print.
Is it bad that I don't remember what model it is, just that it's cow print?

Thanks guys! I ordered the Pavillion in cowmooflage last night. I can't wait for DD's new carseat to come! (She is getting too heavy in the infant bucket anyways...)
