Here's another way to keep the kids from fighting during long car rides that worked for my girlfriend when her kids were little (they're both adults now).
My girlfriend and her husband, who live just outside Rochester, NY, decided to take the kids to Disney World. To save money, they also decided they would drive rather than fly. At the start of the trip, my girlfriend gave each child a roll of quarters. She explained to them that the roll of quarters was theirs to keep with one stipulation. Each time they fought, they would have to pay her a quarter. So it was totally up to them, how much money they got to keep. Well, it worked.... I think a total of 75¢ was paid by each child the entire trip.
