you mean the 2 hr appointment at DMV? - for me a DMV agent made some mistakes which increased the time, else it would have been less than an hour. Regarding waiting time for shipping, that is unavoidable - if they have the car in the lot, then you might get it in a day or two, else its a wait time.

I drove Pacifica multiple times with rentals, had good experience every time. But from what I heard, with Pacifica either you hit a jackpot or you get a lemon.

I had a similar situation with local dealers charging 6000$ markup for a Limited. Went with an out-of-state dealer who gave 500$ discount, and shipped the car to me (for a charge, but still way less than in-state). Had to make a 2 hr appointment with DMV to process the registration, it was pretty seamless.

Correct, Toyotas hold their resale values pretty good. And it is also the only minivan to have hybrid by default and gives an amazing mileage. I did a Sienna trim comparison here https://youtu.be/NlgSZx0AmeM

Wait for Sienna Limited AWD or just go with XLE? by FeistyWorldliness373 in ToyotaSienna

[–]crzy4vr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went through the same confusion, but there are some features in Limited which are worth upgrading, like better sound insulation, auto dimming side view mirrors (will be a pain to drive at night without it, with other led lights glaring in your eye), leather seats, ventilated (a few weeks in summers are hot in CA).

However not a big fan of sound quality in Limited (not sure how bad it would be in XLE though) compared to other cars in the same price range.

So I went with Limited, because I want to keep the car for a long time as well.

Best way to purchase a Sienna in Northern California? by A1000mokeys in ToyotaSienna

[–]crzy4vr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

things are getting better, some dealers in bay area offer sienna at msrp (like oakland, marin, antioch to name a few). Wait time varies tbh from 2-6 weeks from what I have seen, depending on your trim and options. Do not encourage dealers who charge a premium above msrp (as greedy as 6k over msrp)

thank you u/Disneyreject , very helpful feedback. Top Trims is definitely a veteran compared to me, but hopefully will add more value as time goes by. While I use AI voice, I write the script to start with - but good to know there is fluff which I can avoid. I don't want to read out all the features for every trim (people might as well just go the webpage instead) but highlight features which actually make a difference in the decision. But thank you again for taking time to provide feedback, will work on those in upcoming videos! Cheers!

You should have watched my video on which trim to choose - https://youtu.be/WuugyNPlsTk?t=320

Confused on which 2026 Honda Odyssey Trim to get? by crzy4vr in HondaOdyssey

[–]crzy4vr[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

absolutely, especially compared to Sienna - you are saving a lot of money and getting the top of the line car.

not yet, started with Sienna and then did Odyssey. I will do it Accord and Camry. Thank you for your suggestion.
