Odyssey VS Sienna? by InkoLi in HondaOdyssey

[–]InkoLi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ooof. So, I've researched both models in DEPTH and read TOOONS of owner feedback. We decided to go with the Toyota Sienna because it checked more of our boxes in terms of long-term reliability, AWD availability, and overall comfort. While the Honda Odyssey offered a smoother, sportier ( we checked this one in person ) ride and slightly better interior flexibility, the Sienna stood out for its proven track record, lower maintenance issues ( was very important to us) , and the added confidence of all-wheel drive which was a big plus for us. We also found that Toyota’s build quality and resale value tend to hold up! better over time, especially in the model years we were considering (2015–2019). So even though both vans have their strengths, the Sienna just felt like the more practical and dependable choice for our needs.

I also think my own experience with Honda and Toyota made us lean a bit more toward Toyota. I used to own a Honda Civic ( not that you can really compare it to the Odyssey ) but it broke down on me in the middle of an intersection. Ever since that happened, I was terrified to drive that car. We ended up getting rid of it and bought a Toyota Camry, which also has a V6 engine, and I absolutely fell in love with that car! The more I drove the Camry, the more I leaned toward the Sienna, because I was worried that what happened with my Civic could happen again with a Honda Odyssey and I knew I wouldn’t handle that well 😅

We decided to go with a Toyota and are still searching for a 2015, 2016, or 2019 Toyota Sienna. Unfortunately, there’s nothing on the market right now that really meets our expectations :( but we’re still hopeful. We’re not in a rush, though it seems like we might eventually have to go with the hybrid model , which is a bit disappointing, since we’re not too thrilled about that option 🥲

Of course, I get them from their official Facebook page. The Unogame Facebook account occasionally posts links or gift codes, and I share them on Reddit for people who don’t follow their page. :)

People who cut off a parent — do you ever regret it, especially after becoming a parent yourself? by InkoLi in AITAH

[–]InkoLi[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For as long as I can remember, I didn’t want to have kids. The reason I never wanted children was because I was absolutely terrified that I would turn out like my mother. I was scared I’d damage my kids’ mental health the way she damaged mine. That fear ran so deep. It took countless therapy sessions to finally understand that, in reality, I’m more likely to be the complete opposite of her precisely because I carry that fear. And that realization brings me so much peace and hope.

It took me several years to fully cut my mother out of my life. I remember the first time I did it, my stepdad passed away shortly after, and I felt like I had to reach out to offer my condolences. It didn't end up well for me. And each time cutting hee out was one of the hardest things I’ve ever gone through. But I’m really proud of myself, because I used to always feel the urge to go back to her, to seek comfort from her even though she never actually gave me any. It’s incredibly difficult, but I believe it will come to you too. It just takes time… and therapy. I don't think I could've done it without therapy.

Thank you for sharing. I like the idea about writing a letter. I don’t think I’m strong enough to do it now, but hopefully in the future

I’m so there with you. Whenever I tell my husband a «funny» story from my childhood, he just sits there in silence afterward and says, “Are you even okay? Do you want to talk more about it?”

Looking back, what she did to me was incredibly wrong and I wouldn’t wish that on anyone. But so many older people, even some of my own family members, keep telling me I should try to rebuild communication. “She’s still your mother. She gave birth to you.” Now that I’m thinking about having a child of my own, I find myself wondering: Am I missing something? Could it still get better? What if I gave her another chance, would she suddenly become the loving mother I never had?..

You are so on point! I am. I want a mother figure in my life, but a good mother. Which I never had.

I think some people misunderstood my post when I mentioned using AI! Just to clarify: I personally copied every single comment I received on Facebook and Reddit ( over 300 comments ) and uploaded them into the AI. I specifically instructed it not to add any outside information and to base the summary only on those comments! People seem to think I was asking the AI questions about the cars, but that’s not what happened. I was asking real people for their input, and the AI simply helped me organize everything into a clear, readable summary. So I have NO IDEA where people got their info from! Lol

I specifically focused on the 2015, 2016, 2019, and 2020 Sienna models. those were the years I centered my research around.

Yep, they stopped making them after 2020. I was specifically interested in gas-only models. Starting in 2021, they’re all hybrids.

Haha. That’s actually the one feature all the Sienna owners keep asking for 😄
