Parents and kids can now enjoy watching their favorite family-friendly shows while going on a road trip, cross-country ride, or just by simply driving their Jeep or Dodge vehicles. Sirius Satellite Radio, one of the leading satellite radio service provider in the U.S. and DaimlerChrysler AG's Chrysler Group division has recently announced the availability of the first ever in-car television network, the SIRIUS Backseat TV to the 2008 model year vehicle lineup of Jeep and Dodge brands.
