“Going to start looking for a car that can fit 3 car seats for the grandkids & has a DVD player in the ceiling. Any recommendations?”

Bose noise cancelling headphones:)

Three grandkids will have different tastes in infotainment depending on ages.

Go for an aftermarket infotainment system(s) with back of the headrest video. On kid might want to view a movie while another might want to play an xbox/playstation gaming system. I think the gaming systems also allow video feed, recordings from TV like nickelodeon or Al-Jazeera.

If money is not a problem and you want to take longish road trips consider a satellite TV rig. Dish or Direct TV (AT&T) provide the service and you buy the car’$ antenna. Headphones are good but they have them with microphones as well.

I am a nerd dad so I drive a KIA minvan (Killed in Action?).
so adding or removing seats for luggage or the grandkids parents and/or friends is more easily accomplished. KIA has decent value to durability. I’ve owned 3 with 2 over 175,000 miles.

Last word of wisdom; plan for motion sick kids. The newer minivans windows do roll down at least part way but, keep a watchful guard for a kid who seems to go quiet.
