And rather in an X5 than an X1, which really isn't a kid friendly car. The suspension is rather stiff, the air circulation isn't powerful enough, and the rubber door seals and wires under the front seats come off if kicked. The American versions are SAVs with emphasis on S. To be Driven, not rolled.
Thanks, but if I were looking for parenting advice I wouldn't be on a car forum. Of course I check her seat belt, which can be done from the drivers seat. Should I brush her teeth for her too?

Do you go around telling people who have kids in a civic that they should buy another, safer car? I am content with the safety features of my X1, just as I was with my previous X5.
