We leave thurs evening! yeah!!!! We put the tv/vcr in the van last night - had a borrowed bag that holds the combos - 9 inch screen I think. It works great, but it is huge! Hangs between the seats in the front and the kids will see great - but the sounds comes out the sides (in our ears). The next mini van will have the flip down, built-in kind, but for now.......I'm looking for expert advice on whether or not this is going to drive us crazy and if we should just go buy one of those bag tv's meant for vehicles - they have small screens though and we will have at least one child in the rear of the van who needs to see the tv. We have a 9 year old, 3 1/2 yr old and 12 month old. Is there a better arrangement that I am missing??????
