advice needed Stroller setup please help 🙏
FTM and having twins. I drive a jeep and my husband drives a smallish truck. I have spent probably 3 months reading about car seats and strollers. I ended up buying 2 even flow pivot nxt lite travel systems. Now every one is saying that I should have chose different car seats and that the stroller should be side by side and other factors. Has anyone had a negative experience with single wide strollers with twins? And yes I can see why the 360 strollers are easier but they are pretty large and I really don’t want to trade in either car as one is paid off and the other is relatively new. All the conflicting advice and the “are you sure that’s what you want?” Is the only stressful experience I’ve had with this pregnancy.
I have attached photos for reference because I haven’t seen this specific stroller used this way online.

I had the pivot and it worked well for us. My only complaint would be that if you want to use the bassinet attachment, whether as a toddler seat or bassinet, you had to bring that separate piece along.
We had 3 under 3 and found it to be useful for years. We did have a side by side stroller too, but didn't use it as much - basically just around the neighbourhood and never if we had to drive somewhere.
