I had two Recaro boosters for a while and I could not imagine squeezing in a third. +1 on the towel under the booster, no way that is gonna get the chance to leave an impression on my leather. Third row seating may be a must. I have three boys and now that only one is in a booster my wife was able to get rid of the Odyssey. Now I don't need to hear her complain about driving a minivan! LOL

Success. I sat comfortably in front of the Chicco Key Fit 30! Now time to find an LS. I'm looking at an '05 in Florida listed for $21,900. Service history on the Lexus website is long, but nothing major and seems like all the maintenance has been done at a Lexus dealer. It has about 50k miles on the odo. It has nav, but no UL, which is perfect for us. I was thinking about offering $20k. Is that reasonable?

The price sounds about right. I would have it inspected before buying.

The biggest question that I'm struggling with is the back seat and trunk space combo enough for the twins. We're getting the narrowest convertible seats that we can find:

The double stroller will fit fine in the trunk with extra room for groceries. Congrats on the soon to be born twins!
