Since Honda dealers are selling Odysseys with nice discounts, will the resale value of the Odyssey drop? While shopping for a new minivan, I discovered I can buy an Odyssey for thousands of dollars less than a comparable Sienna or Town and Country. Has resale value of Odysseys been much better than Siennas because Odysseys have few options that depreciate faster than the base vehicle? A less expensive used Odyssey LX costs more than a used Sienna LE.

Everyone got better prices than you did, by far. And with a handle like "toyojunk", do you honestly think people believe you're seriously shopping for another Toyota? I don't. |

By the way dumping the stock tires on the Sienna improves handling tons, we have a set of Yokohama Avid's on ours and it's like night and day. |

The Sienna offers more usable power, better fuel economy, and a more family-oriented soft ride. I do disagree with him about the handling being as good in the Sienna, but hey, disagreements are allowed, right?  The Odyssey has better seating options, more carlike handling, and in my opinion, better styling inside and out. We know you dislike your Sienna, but putting words in other people's mouths is going a little far, hans. Neither is the "Best" or the "Worst." Both are excellent options, which appeal to different people.

Replying to: toyojunk (May 25, 2009 6:58 pm) For all the hype about Ody handling you would think Honda would at least include a dead pedal. Seriously, how can you even talk about handling when there is no real deal pedal for your left foot? A deal-killer omission, IMHO, even if I had been shopping for handling vs. ride comfort. Unless Honda has fixed that since I last test drove one?
