"MAN can that thing handle all the bumps and crazy tree roots in our neighborhood. ... We can take it on trails even."
"I live in 300 year old American city with cracked sidewalks, potholes, constant construction, you name it. The Citi Mini braved it all without breaking a sweat, and gave us a lot of really good memories. Love that damn thing."
"It’s not small or lightweight and doesn’t fit in the overhead, but it’s sturdy and we just gate check it naked (without a bag or any protection). ... We’ve flown with it probably a dozen times (and used it for a while at home as a backup when we had an issue with our vista) and it’s still holding up well."

"it lays flat and has an awesome shade for naps"
"for naps, it lays down almost completely flat, which is really nice! ... My 6 year old still likes to recline all the way and chill when we're walking, haha"
"Also really love that the seat folds completely flat. Our little guy is a great stroller napper and it's like we have a little mobile hotel room for him when we're out and about"

"I used it many times flying solo with my little one all the way up to the gate. ... I could hold him and still fold the stroller one handed."
"Being able to manipulate it with one hand is rare and priceless"
"The onw-handed fold ... were life savers multiple times when I had to take the stairs somewhere unexpectedly"

"extremely manoeuvrable ... It has served me well on cobblestone streets, forest trails, beaches and everything in between."

"I wanted one stroller that fit every need and found it in a jogger"
"it can work now when they are newborns (the harness tightens and can lay flat) and also when they are up to 50 lbs each ... I didn’t even need an infant insert!"
"My oldest is tall (she was the size of a 10 year old), and she still fit in no problem (the weight limit is high too, which we like a lot)"

"It’s not small or lightweight"
"I just switched to a minu v2 because the gt2 is just a tiny bit too bulky to easily maneuver in and out of our house with an injured back."
"I still kind of hate it and am considering getting two single compact strollers.. but I already have 2 double strollers and I just feel like this is first world problems"

"Terrible basket space"
"My main complaint is the basket under the seat is tiny compared the vista."
"I Hate the basket."

"The Babyzen and City brands don’t really have much adjustment capacity for the the steering handle, so if you’re too tall or too short it may be extremely uncomfortable for you to use something if you need to constantly hunch over."
"I don’t like that you can’t adjust the handle."

"There is one caveat: it does not do parent facing. ... My guy has outgrown the bassinet/car seat but is not quite ready for world facing. So the City Mini GT is now waiting for him to get a bit bigger. ... If it had a reversible seat it would be the perfect stroller for every situation."
We bought a caddy type stroller (babytrend snap & go) when our twins were first born. Really convenient and easy to take around. I waited until black friday to SPLURGEEEEE on not 1 but 2 babyjoggers 😅. Theyre 30% on black friday plus either amazon (15% off) or target (15% + 5% if using red card) completion discount. Getting 2 was only a bit more than getting 1 when not on sale. It worked in our favor bc they were born only a few months away from black friday. Ok we love both the babyjogger double strollers so I imagine the single versions would be amazing as well. The mini gt2 is so smooth and easy to take them shopping and around the city in. Also got the summit x3 because that is an actual jogging stroller (mini gt2 is not). I get such a good workout in with that one. Both worth the purchase and the wait. We still use the caddy as well for more tight places like the doctors office…will be using that one for as long as they fit in their infant carseat.
I got the citi mini gt2 and I don't love it. We loved our bugaboo fox but the 2 part fold was a ball ache. The baby jogger harness is crap and the seat isn't upright enough for my liking. Not sure how it gets so many good reviews. Mountain buggy is far superior in terms of handling and harness etc, wish we'd got one of those!
With a newborn, you’re going to need to spend the money and deal with the weight. We got the [Baby Jogger City Mini stroller and car seat set.](https://www.amazon.com/Baby-Jogger-City-Travel-System/dp/B07YCNSM4J/) It was super nice for the first year. Being able to go from car seat to stroller and back without having to unbuckle the kid was really nice. Our kid is nearing 2, and that’s still his car seat. When he could sit on his own, we changed the stroller to the [Babyzen Yoyo.](https://www.amazon.com/Babyzen-YOYO2-Stroller-Black-Canopy/dp/B0857159B3/) That’s the one that hits everything you listed. $450, super light, well built and sturdy, and it packs up so small that it fits in the overhead compartment of an airplane. Just got back from a trip with the kid and didn’t have to check the stroller. Just popped it overhead, and it’s the same stroller we use everyday on the streets of Philadelphia. The only downside is that it’s not appropriate for a newborn. They need to be able to sit up on their own before you can use the Babyzen Yoyo.
I have the uppa baby vista with the piggy back but ended up getting a Baby Jogger City Mini GT2 with their ride along attachment and love it. I got it for airports because it’s much smaller and better for rental cars (I have three kids and often travel with grandparents… space is premium). I use it more than the uppa baby now. The ride along attachment is a little trickier to get on and off quickly, but just takes some practice. Uppa baby does have a lot more storage underneath, which I do miss sometimes with the baby jogger and could be a consideration for Disney. Baby jogger is easier to collapse in my opinion.
I also started with a Graco, but switched to Uppababy! The Graco was too bulky for me and we rarely clipped the car seat into the stroller. We ended up continuing to use the Graco car seat but got a Minu because it was smaller and more lightweight.
Uppa Baby G Luxe, or Baby Jogger City Mini 2. My daughters are 19, and 15 now but I had early versions of Uppa Baby Vista and it was a great stroller. Very much a BIFL quality item. Go to the store and try a bunch out and get the one with the easiest fold. We had a Maclaren Triumph stroller and it was great; so sad the company went out of business.
Yup, this is the one right here. I live in 300 year old American city with cracked sidewalks, potholes, constant construction, you name it. The Citi Mini braved it all without breaking a sweat, and gave us a lot of really good memories. Love that damn thing.
Baby Jogger City Mini 2 served us very well and we did a LOT of long distance walking
I love my city mini gt2. Two kids and that thing is still trucking. Plus the shock absorber on that bad boy!
Do you intend to actually jog with it outside of Disney or do you just prefer the style and ease of push of jogging strollers?
Perfect. I already added my suggestion under the other comment but the Baby Jogger City Mini GT2 would be my top suggestion. It is quite a bit more expensive than the Jeep you were looking at but they are quite popular and usually fairly easy to find gently used locally for a good price. Definitely worth the upgrade over the Jeep.
The Mountain Buggy Nano is a great travel stroller but not a great long-term option for a child who is already 4 unless they are very petite. Something easy to fold and reasonably compact but with a higher weight capacity and seat dimensions that will work for a bigger/older child will be beneficial in the long run since kids tend to need strollers MUCH longer at Disney than in regular life. Assuming they don’t actually intend to jog with it outside of Disney, I’d suggest the Baby Jogger City Mini GT2. It will fit a bigger child so much better. Shop around on Marketplace to find a good condition gently used one to save on the cost.
