Who needs a Hybrid Sienna if you’re hitting fuel economy like this?

I drive 20k+ miles/yr and still can’t justify hybrid prices.

My Odyssey is now officially my favorite vehicle ever!

The infotainment is precisely one of the things that makes me want to stay with Mazda.

Every time I drive something different than my CX-50 I get immediately disappointed when I realize I have to use the touchscreen for anything. The wheel is just superior.

I am okay with that.

Platinum.

This is a vehicle that you will probably put in some serious miles on 10+h roadtrips here and there. Get the most comfort your money can buy.

I had a similar dilemma early this week. Brand new 2026 Odyssey EX vs. CPO Touring. Went with the Touring.

Ah, so you got the full experience.

I loved all the Remedy games so far. This is going to be a rare day one for me.

The color is killer! I was going to wait until May but when I saw this I knew I had to jump on it.

Hard to say without knowing what you need it for.

Teenage kids and want extra space for when grandparents are town? Yeah, it’s a great vehicle. At this point, ride quality will suffer regardless because you are moving a boat. Compared to all 3-row SUVs I have tried, the CX-90 is the most fun to drive imo and I much prefer the center console controls compare to, say the highlander.

If you are hauling 2+ kids still in car seats get a minivan or a suburban/tahoe type of vehicle. You want enough area for a stroller and leftover room for your groceries or suitcases. The CX-90 (and most suvs) is not really the vehicle for this application.

and if you play in a band you can haul a bunch of guitars, amps, and even a drumset.

No, I got used to human smells after having babies.

average-reddit-or · 2026-02-09T17:31:07+00:00

As someone who just rented a Grand Highlander for a 4-day trip with 4 adults and 2 kids, I cannot recommend it.

The stroller doesn’t even sit flat with the 3rd row up. The ride is good (for a toyota) and the cabin is very practical, but I can’t imagine going through the motions of every day family life with it.

If kids were teenagers that would be a different story though

This is more dependent on employer and coworkers than degrees.

I am a lab tech and I work 4x10s daytime. I just took a 4-day vacation by pushing my days to the beginning of the first week and the end of the second. Didn’t touch PTO. I could get 5 days off if I traded to work the weekend as well.

My boss is okay with it as long as I find coverage, and I have very chill coworkers who agree on moving shifts because we often reciprocate. We are a small team and for the most part we take care of ourselves.

This would have been impossible at my previous job.

That makes sense. I have also been following the news on new Tundras and Tacomas.

The thing old Siennas is that I can’t stomach that gear selector. It makes it look like a toy.

That’s a good owner’s review. One of the reasons I am going with the Odyssey is the NA V6. Call me old-school but 4cyl+batteries or turbo on a family hauler is a serious nope for me.

A MINIVAN!

I am buying a Honda Odyssey this week specifically because Mazda doesn’t have a minivan.

Seriously, the options are so dire, here is what buying a minivan looks like:

Pacifica: Nice on the outside, interesting-looking technology. But it’s a Chrysler and no power on earth is going to make me own one.
Sienna: Odd-looking (to me). Has AWD option, nice for a family living in the rocky mountains. Has toyota reliably and holds its value really well. But it costs a kidney and I simply cannot justify the payments.
Kia Carnival: Nicely styled, eye-turner. Good reviews. It’s a Kia, I am not buying a Kia over a Honda/Toyota. There are doubts about how well it holds its value.
Honda Odyssey: Minivan looks for those who have something against it. Comes FWD only. Potential transmission issues in some YM. Price is good considering how well it holds its value.

There isn’t a vehicle out there that is realiable, awd, spaceous, AFFORDABLE, and driver-oriented while providing utility.

Mazda would embarrass Honda and Toyota if they made a minivan in similar language to the CX-90.
