Earlier this week, I flew to Southern California to attend a Kelley Blue Book Ride-n-Drive and KBB Best Buy Awards immersion event and test drove a few of the nominees! It was awesome to hear all about how this decision is made and what all they are looking at. We drove the coast and the views of the ocean were stunning! I loved being able to test out carseats and strollers in the cars. That’s something that people don’t always think about doing before purchasing, and then they are stuck figuring out what to do with their oversized carseats or strollers that won’t fit. There are many “must haves” in my book while shopping for a new ride for my family. It was nice to test drive all types and see and feel the difference. Here is a little video of me testing out the stroller fit!
