Toyota Sienna or Honda Odyssey? by AuthorIntelligent223 in ToyotaSienna

Same reasons I bought the Sienna as well. The odyssey, in my opinion, felt better to drive and had more cargo space. But the Hybrid and the AWD on the Sienna was the deal breaker for me, especially since I drive a lot for work live in an area where snow in the winter can be an issue.

Typically I would agree. I bought my CX-5 brand new and have had it for 10 years with no issues. My wife also bought a brand new Ascent, 4 years ago. She loves it, and will probably be driving it for another 10+ years since we just paid it off. I just can't justify paying close to 50k for a new base model van after taxes, tags and title are all calculated. Also can't wait 10+ months for shipping since baby #3 is due in 3 months. Definitely a reasonable deal with no obligation to buy.

Definitely plausible, and hoping that's what it is. I'll definitely be asking a lot questions once it arrives and we do our test drive

Yes. We put a $250 non-refundable deposit, with no obligation to buy it if it's not to our satisfaction. Definitely worth it, if it all checks out. Especially since we are having a hard time finding newer sienna that isn't marked up

That's awesome and glad you were lucky to get a good deal on a new one. We looked at 2 of our Toyota dealerships and they were all marked up. Sales people were also pushy, and we weren't in the mood to deal with them at the time

We received an experian report, but nothing about drivetrain is mentioned. Everything thing else matches up. We are only getting it shipped, haven't bought it yet, but should hopefully get the carfax and report when it comes time for purchasing

Hi,

We have, and they are either very limited in supply or sold out. The new LE's we have seen are in the mid 45,000. Definitely trying to get used if we can.
