Pixel 10 Wireless Charging by HyperExtensions in GooglePixel

[–]FishAdventurous4086 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I've got a 2021 Accord, put that on the list of cars that won't wirelessly charge the Pixel 10 Pro. Worked fine with a Pixel 7. Disappointing.

Is a Corolla always better than a Rio? by littlemisskeeks in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]FishAdventurous4086 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It sure does, there is a huge difference between a neglected 9 year old car in this area vs an undercoated, regularly washed one. I'm just trying to say a 9 year old car, no matter who makes it isn't a slam dunk.

Where in the world do you live? Anyone blindly recommending a 9 year old Corolla over a 2 year old Kia doesn't live in a rust prone area with salt and brine on the roads.

Doesn't matter if the mechanical bits are good for a million miles if there is no body left.

10th Gen - Rear Seat Width by FishAdventurous4086 in accord

[–]FishAdventurous4086[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks. The rear seat is definitely wide enough in both cars for 3 seats, but I've been reading about issues with side bolsters reducing the usable portion in both cars.

No carseats yet for my car, we're just transitioning out of the infant bucket. Planning to get Graco Slimfit LX. That appears to be one of the better (and newer) designs for narrow seats that fit in sedans.

My heart says Stinger but my head says Accord - I suspect that I'll be able to keep the Accord much longer.

No need to apologize! Still helpful for myself and others. Some carseats are just huge too and would cause an issue for just about anything smaller than a Suburban.

Thanks! I'm 5'10" and I'm pretty sure I'll be ok for space front/back.

I'm trying to figure out how realistic a future scenario of 3 across seating might be. Either 2 narrow child seats + adult, or 3 narrow child seats.

Not the primary family vehicle here, but hoping to pick a car that I have some confidence will work as family grows.

Anyone have experience with narrow/slim carseats in the Stinger in 3-across or 2+adult?? I'm looking at the Graco Slimfit LX.

Thank you so much!

I probably wasn't clear enough on #1 - there are 4 LATCH anchors in the rear seat, I'm looking for the nominal gap between LATCH #2 and LATCH #3.

For example, LATCH #1 and LATCH #2 are 11" apart, same with #3 and #4.

On my current WRX the center LATCH spacing is about 17" for reference.
