Replying to: sahildesai (Jun 10, 2007 4:40 pm) I doubt it. We have a 06 ODY EX-L and love it (and compared it to the Toyota). We use the 8th chair (clearly the middle/least desirable seat) as the last possible option. We pack 3 (preferrably smaller bodies) in the back BEFORE getting out the middle seat. The middle seat doesn't slide at all so that person is subject to what happens to each chair on the sides and can get into a real lack of elbow room. I prefer to put a child in that seat (that loves the view of the RES, doesn't care about legroom, and it short so they don't block the view of the ones from the back row). Of course we really only use the 8th chair on trips anyway - of which we've done a few now.   Again, I love the Honda ODY...   The gap between the seats is pretty wide making the rear bench pretty accessible/usable. A friend of mine has 4 kids (with a Sienna) and he says they use the 2+2+2 arrangment most of the time anyway.   Can't you just hear it "stop touching me"!

Replying to: odyarchitect (Jun 13, 2007 1:24 pm) We have actually had a different experience . . . There are two girls (8 & 10 yo) in our neighborhood that car pool with our 8 yo daughter in our '07 ody. No 1 girl wants to sit in the far back so we put in the center seat. Now they fight over who sits in the center because it has the best view! Even when we are driving with only my daughter in the van, she still chooses to sit in the center.

Replying to: hockeyfool (Jun 13, 2007 2:32 pm) Actually, when we load up 7-8 people for trip, my 6-year-old PREFERS the middle seat too. He prefers the best view too.   From my experience, the only complaints about the middle seat come from an adult. It's not so much the sitting experience, it's the coordination with the 2 seats beside them.   On a tangent to this, does it frustrate you that when you lean & slide the middle seats forward to access the rear seat (by lifting the lever on the top of the seat) and the go to slide them back into place, the seat back is leaning too far forward? If I had a nickel for everytime I had to reach down and recline the seat for someone... Adults seem to be baffled/confused by this more than kids.

You can see part of the grille of the 2008 Odyssey in the following picture (behind red 2008 Accord Coupe): Spy shot of Accord, with 08 Odyssey behind it Replies to this message: carfun888 (Jun 27, 2007 7:58 am) dbt (Jun 30, 2007 7:28 pm) dbt (Jul 01, 2007 9:52 am)

Replying to: dbt (Jun 26, 2007 9:03 pm) Looks like PAX tires on that Accord!!   If that is the case then the Ody Touring won't be droppping them for 08. Replies to this message: dbt (Jun 30, 2007 7:28 pm) dbt (Jul 01, 2007 9:52 am)

Replying to: carfun888 (Jun 27, 2007 7:58 am) It's looking like the Touring itself is dropped for 08.   See HondaPreview.com   (also some confusion on no current ordering info on NAV, but speculation is that the new nav will debut on Accord with Ipod integration, and then make it available on Ody) Replies to this message: dbt (Jul 01, 2007 9:52 am)

Replying to: dbt (Jun 30, 2007 7:28 pm) I may be jumping the gun here: dealers have not been given a model code for the 08 touring as of now, but just as the Nav may come later, so may the Touring.
#3573 of 3589 This is Very Interesting... by jchan2 Jul 02, 2007 (5:53 pm)
If they dropped the Navigation and Touring models, were people not buying them, or was Honda simplifying trim lines, like Toyota did last year with the Sienna?   And if they're on hiatus, what's causing the delay? Dropping both don't make sense; as the PAX equipment is getting around to more Honda dealers...   I'm betting they shuffled the equipment around and added more content to the LX model...
