	Hey, that works for some people.  I'm glad my wife is not Xena,
either :).

This is the biggest thing to remember.  They grow, and usually without
provocation.
My boy is 4.6 years old now, and I've been in the family since December.
Apparently, he 
could load himself easily by 3.5; all you have to do is buckle him in.
He mastered that
easily by his fourth birthday.  YOMV (your offspring may vary), of
course.

For that particular car, I'd invest in a 4-door 'other' car if the
backseat access is
too hard for you (finance$ allowing).
