Thanx for the info on the strollers:D It looks like were going to take the 55 hard top.The only question is what is the height of that one( seat to opening in roof).Trying to figure out where the roof line would be on my son when he was sitting in it.(Roof line even with his chest,face etc)Looking forward to doing business with you.
