Infants (under 20 lbs) in NY have to face backwards in their car seats. If your truck is very solid underneath, seat and seat belt mounting points solid, you have a good car seat, and your seat belts new not 40 years old, I don't see a problem. I take my Grandson who is 4 1/2 pretty often. Put him/her in the middle as he/she would be better protected from side impacts. Trucks, unless yours is lowered, sit higher than cars and have stout frames and bumpers, both of which are an advantage in my opinion.
