We've been looking at mid-sized SUV's/Cross-overs, and as well checked out the Odyssey van, not expecting much from a van. Turns out we're pretty impressed with the Odyssey and may follow that up as a real purchase option. We especially like the Toruing model that has all the bells and whistles --- and it handles surprisingly well for what we expected from a van. Does anyone have any advice for us --- things to know about or be aware of --- before we go much further re the Odyssey? We figure this NG may be the best source for some input. Thanks in advance for the benefit of your experience.
Definitely check out the Ody Club link Elmo posted, it's a great resource. We have an '07 and love it. Only issue we've had (besides 2 flat tires!) is having the power steering pump replaced (under warranty). Our choice came down to the Ody or the Sienna, and we felt like the Ody handled a bit better, and really liked the option of the 8th seat. Dan D '07 Ody EX Central NJ USA
