And you will be trapped for hours in an area roughly the size of a kitchen table with the people who know how to push your buttons better than anyone.
If you have kids, a DVD option is a wise investment.
Though we didn't go with the DVD option when we purchased our mini-van, we quickly purchased a TV/Video Player combo. We then replaced that with a TV/DVD combo. Best add-on investment we've /ever/ made. Highly recommended.

Of course if you're even more sadistic than your children and know how to push their buttons, you may enjoy the no-DVD, no-air conditioning vehicle. In fact, you may opt for the sub-compact. You can use the savings to pay for more gas and cheap motels! ;-)
