Could be child abuse!

Once you get the tiny ones out of car seats they might be OK, but would probably be too close together for their comfort (and your sanity) on a longish trip. Right now, the oldest one will probably have to go in the middle, and because car seats take up a lot of space, the kid will be pretty miserable.
Keep the 'vert and get a minivan. We did an SUV when our two kids were small but a van would have been better. Also.... you have to look further ahead. The 7 yr old will have friends you have to tote and you'll sometimes have the 2 little ones in tow so you'll need more room than a 9-5 has.
It's a fact of life these days that if you have more than 2 kids you're likely to need something bigger than a mid-size wagon.
When they're older they can suffer better. We had 3 kids, ages 15-20, in our 9-5 wagon on a 550 mile trip and it worked, but they were not comfortable. Two would have been okay. 3 really pushes the envelope.
