    REAR FACING ONLY child seats in M3- which ones have you used if you're over 6' tall?

    I wasn't asking for an opinion on what kind of car to buy, thanks. You gotta read peoples whole post before responding to save everyone time.

    REAR FACING ONLY child seats in M3- which ones have you used if you're over 6' tall?

    We aren't looking for a forward facing seat - as the post said, we are looking for rear facing only, and looking for specific seat recommendations. I did see your video and the rear facing seat you've used does not appear to be a good model for newborns which needs lots of recline so their head...

    REAR FACING ONLY child seats in M3- which ones have you used if you're over 6' tall?

    That's good to know, thank you for sharing your experience. I had a feeling the Graco would only fit it it was more upright than reclined, which doesn't work for a newborn. We just received a Chicco Keyfit 30, and while it's not what we want, it should hopefully be usable for the first few...

    Thank you! Yeah we really wanted the Diono Radian but definitely wont fit. Are your front passengers tall? If so, and you can get the Marathon in, that would be great.

    Thanks to you having a specific model recommendation, I was able to find some pictures online of a britax one4life in a model 3 and it looks like the front passenger will only have to give up a little leg room! Thank you!

    Good to know - and if there's a 6' person in the front passenger seat, how cramped do you think they might feel? We just have to get through a year of sacrifice, then we'll have a larger model and it wont be an issue.

    Aww man, I was hoping not to hear that. Were there any models you tried that were close? Perhaps we can have the closest fit possible behind the passenger seat and sacrifice a little leg room for that front passenger. We may only have the M3P for another year max and then can transfer whatever...

    REAR FACING ONLY child seats in M3- which ones have you used if you're over 6' tall?

    I've used them before for infants and I know I don't like them, we prefer to carry babe on us, but more importantly for me - as a health care professional who specialises in muscular skeletal development, I can confidently say I don't want my baby in an infant carrier more than is absolutely...

    REAR FACING ONLY child seats in M3- which ones have you used if you're over 6' tall?

    Thanks for the recommendation, I'll check out the Britax One4Life, is this one you've used in a Model 3? We'll use either the middle seat or behind passenger - whatever will fit best for the driver. I didn't think about the ski rack option but will consider that if the frunk option doesn't...

    Can TM3 have a rear-facing infant car seat in the center?

    Hi David, how tall are you if you don't mind me asking? We have been told that the Diono Radian RXT wont fit in any seats for us, being over 6 feet tall. We are looking for a rear facing infant seat that is usable for up to the age of two.

    Please read whole post before answering. We have a Model 3 (2021 yr). We have tall front seat drivers (over 6 foot) and are expecting a baby soon. I have read so many threads and am struggling to get exact car seat model names for REAR FACING infant/child safety seats with tall front...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Last year I waited 8 weeks for my M3P but I knew it was going to be 8 weeks. I would have waited 18 weeks. Communication from Tesla was outstanding last quarter, and nothing like it has been for some of you this quarter. Seeing all your posts, it seems that it's the unknown factor AND the...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Oh no, I'm sorry to hear that. Can you call the person assigned to your order and find out if it's for sure cancelled? This is the second Tesla purchase for us and both times we've had someone assigned to our order from the very beginning. We have their direct phone number and email and they...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Do you mean you had an appointment booked, or was the delivery window there, and then gone? We had Dec 22-31, then it disappeared and we got an actual appointment a couple days later. See the post before this one. Hopefully you are getting yours!

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    It's arrived! We'd been checking our account daily. We ordered Dec 7th (British Columbia). At first the delivery date said "2-4 weeks form order date", then about mid December that changed to "December 22-31" and then last week the delivery date disappeared and said nothing at all! Last night a...
