When we went for the Kia Carnival minivan last year we opted for the 7 seater configuration that came with fancy captain chairs with insane recline. We opted for this knowing we had one kid but would hurt the resale value of car. I am glad now we did because this is the number one thing we use in our swim meets to just go back seat and relax! Even the kid uses it on long drives and after practice. Absolutely love these seats on the carnival!
