Doesn’t the manual say you shouldn’t put one in the middle?

No. It says not to use the outboard LATCH anchors for the middle seat. Those are for outboard seats only. Child seat in the middle must be installed using the seat belt.

Seeing this inspired me to try my collection of car seats.
x2 Graco 4ever
x1 Cosco Scenera (I think)
Tight fit, but doors close without pinching the seats. Used seat belts for all seats, can’t do it with latch system.

It only makes sense that the 3 should safely carry 3 kiddos! Nice!!

I put some towels between the car seat and the Tesla seats to minimize creasing on the pleather.

On my last two S’s any creases or marks came out with a hair dryer and a bit of a massage.

Infant seats and multiple rear facing seats are not a great fit for a Model 3 for those expecting new babies and they should be rear facing for as long as possible. We luckily just have 1 Uppababy Mesa installed behind the passenger side and there is no way multiple rear facing car seats can fit. The Model X on the other hand shines as a baby mover and the FWD have been the single best feature to load kids in. The 3 can work for a 2 kid family but really would not encourage it for 3 kid families as a primary car. Best to pick up a inventory discounted X or wait 2 years when they will be under 45-50k used.

I cringe at the amount of work it takes to buckle in/out your kids. Kudos to you!

Staying strong and not getting a min-van. Hats off to you!

Can anyone report how the Graco 4Ever fits in the rear facing position in the back of a Model 3? How far up does the passenger seat need to be?

Not sure about graco but the diono takes up a lot of room rear facing. I’m 6’2 and am quite uncomfortable in the passenger seat with a rear facing seat behind it. It’s ok for short around town drives. My wife is 5’6” and is comfortable in the passenger seat.
