Sorentosite.com Discussions - My wife also has a new toy

Well, it was my wife's turn to pick a car so here is our new toy. Picked it up last night after 3 longs hours at the stealership.

What's with your wife and vans Duh

sweet cluster...love the transition from white to blue SWEEEET!

We were going crazy with the Sentra. We got used to all the room in the Sorie and the Sienna. You have no idea how much "i hate this small car" crap I had to listen to. She calls the Sentra the "Mr.Bean car."

Nice lookin ride!

Nobody dresses a van like Honda. Very sweet looking. We went with the Plain Jane Sedona and got all the gadgets they had to offer. The Odyssey is the best looking minivan on the road. Nice pick.

Congrats on the new van ,I like Honda's van........260 km/h? wow thats more than sorrie and is same like my Camry , sweet.

BTW, does any one now in what price range those invisible 3M bra things are?

$300 to $400 for the EVO crowd. SHould be around $300 for the van too.

Good luck with the new van! My parents have an '05 "Touring" that they drive the heck out of (up and down from Florida to Minneapolis with several stops in between several times a year to see family) and like overall, BUT the Odyssey has been very "un-Honda-like" with multiple problems, some recurring, and I have several friends and acquaintances who own Odysseys and have also had multiple "issues" with them. Hopefully Honda has worked out the bugs by now, because except for the reliability issues and the lack of an AWD model I might be driving one instead of my diesel Ford Excursion.

Actually, my second choice was a Toyota Sienna, and only because it DID (and does) have an AWD option. However I like the look of the Odyssey a lot better than the Sienna.

Enjoy it ... it's a sweet ride!

Regards,

We had a 2006 Sienna CE for about a year before we moved to Chicago. Also a great ride. It's too early to tell with the Ody. I'll be testing it tomorrow for a while as I have to do a South Suburbs > Chicago > Bannockburn trip. Let's see how it goes.
