2006 Sienna delivers good "Real World" gas mileage by hansienna

27.9 MPG on recent 1369 mile round trip on I-15, I-210, CA 57, Ball Road, and Harbor Blvd when 49.0 gallons of fuel were consumed with cruise set at 75-76 MPH. EPA Rating is 19 City 26 Highway. Air Conditioner was running most of the trip. Trip computer read 28.6 MPG at end of the trip - slightly higher than the actual mileage. (Sadly, the Odyssey still does not have a trip computer ).
 
Average gasoline price was $ 4.115 per gallon compared to $ 4.292 on similar trip June 13 - 20. (Gasoline dropped 50 cents per gallon 87 octane in Barstow, Calif from $ 4.579 June 14 to $ 4.079 on August 9th).

Not until you get to the Touring model, I believe.
 
I'd miss it a lot - I love having one, and mine is merely a pedestrian LE model, nothing fancy.
 
To be fair the Ody EX has climate control, so there's your trade off. I'd rather have the trip computer, so that's fine with me, but it's all individual preference.

Sienna is a good choice if passengers do not want comfort and legroom by hansienna

The Odyssey has THE MOST Comfortable seats for EVERYONE + The BEST leg room for all 3 rows of seats altho the Sienna does have the largest cargo area behind the 3rd row seat.

My 2006 Sienna LE is NOT as quiet in the 2nd row as my sister's 2001 Odyssey EX. (The Sienna 2nd and 3rd row are also NOT as quiet as was my 2002 T&C LX or our daughter's 1999 GC SE).

I agree..
 
Our 05 T&C sucked, it was fairly quiet and had a nice ride but it does not compare to our Sienna Limited. Also the Odyssey to us had to stiff of a ride and was real loud and annoying after a few minutes of just test driving it.

Odyssey MPG (from that chart)
 
17 CITY
24 HWY
16 300 MILE AVERAGE???
 
How does the Odyssey average 16 mpg? I fear the ratings are overly optimistic. Real world mpg doesn't deliever like it should.

After driving a 2005 Odyssey at 75-85MPH from Oklahoma City to Birmingham, AL, loaded with 600 lbs, I averaged 24 MPG in my aunt's 2005 EX (non VCM).

Yes, he is. Our friends in Tucson hosted us in their new Ody and from the back I felt it had too much road noise. Our Sienna seems more quiet.

My guess is that includes track testing, the 16mpg overall number, that is.
 
So either it struggled to keep up with the quicker Sienna and Dodge, or they gave it more chances in acceleration tests, hoping to obtain better numbers.
