Toyota and Honda: 2 super vehicle makers. I take C&D more for entertainment than for scientific revelations about the auto industry. Unfortunately, we will have to wait for Consumers Report to arrive with more complete and objective findings about both minivans, imo. |

Replying to: buckeye1 (Sep 15, 2004 11:01 am) I sure wouldn't consider C-R to be the gold standard of automotive reviews. Just MO.

Replying to: buckeye1 (Sep 15, 2004 11:01 am) So without actual numbers to support their reviews, how objective can they be? |

Replying to: heywood1 (Sep 15, 2004 11:57 am) Combine that with the JD Powers long term reliability report, and you get a better view of reliability. Yeah, if I want a good review on cars, I look to Car magazines. If I want a good for stereo system, I look to stereo magazines. If I want a good review on LCD, Plasma TV, etc, I look to video magazines. CR is just good for reliability reports, and there are other sources for that as well. If you want to know which vehicle is quieter, smoother, cushier, handles better around corners, you look to car magazines, IMO. |

"If you want to know which vehicle is quieter, smoother, cushier, handles better around corners, you look to car magazines, IMO." And then TEST DRIVE IT. Try to avoid the common pitfalls of falling in love with a car based on reviews and photos (or website threads) and then 'living' with some annoying idiocycracy which bothers the heck out of YOU but wasn't on the reviewers radar screen. |

Until I was sure Honda could design and build a decent automatic transmission for their minivans. Seems they have had nagging issues, large and small since they got into the minivan market.

| Just got a call from my salesman. Apparently Honda shipped Ody's early from Alabama to avoid Hurricane. EX-L I'm wait listed for has MSRP of 30,810. I'm going in this weekend to take a look. | |
