Earliest year Odyssey w/4+ top tethers? Other cars with 4+?

I have a small budget ($5k or less) and need to get a 7+ passenger vehicle ... and I'd like to have more than 3 top tethers to work with and headrests on all seats (this seems like it doesn't exist in GM vehicles? I keep seeing no headrest on the middle seat in the 3rd row). Help?

Not sure about the head rests. But, according to the LATCH manual, the following have 4 (or more) top tether anchors:

Ford Freestyle 2005-2007
Honda Odyssey 2006 and newer
Kia Sedona 2006-2010, not sure about the newer ones
(Incidentally, the Hyunadi Entourage is similar enough to the Sedona that it may have the same, but not sure on that)
Toyota Sienna 2004-2010

The 2006 Ody does have headrests everywhere too. The top tether for the 3rd row center is in an awkward spot but it's there. It crosses the trunk space and attaches right by the trunk latch so there is no way my double jogging stroller or a large/wide item would fit in the trunk while using that anchor. I'm glad it's there if I need it though, just hate the position.

Older Odysseys have places to add 3 for the third row, but they are on the back sill, so they will cross the cargo space. I believe they do come with 2 already in the second row, so they should be able to have tethers in all 5 rear positions.

I have a '00, there are headrests in all 5 positions, but haven't looked for the tether anchors yet :eek:
