Replying to: bobw3 (Sep 12, 2007 4:38 pm) WHERE are the other measurements like Shoulder Room, Hip Room, Head Room, Cargo capacity behind 2nd row and total cargo capacity behind 1st row with ALL seats down or out? WHY not also include the Sienna data if it is bigger inside?  I feel that the Odyssey has THE most comfortable seats for ALL people inside it...BUT the Odyssey cargo room behind 3rd row is compromised by having the air intake for the rear heater/air conditioner fan at floor level while T&C/GC is part way up the rear side and the Sienna with THE LARGEST cargo area behind 3rd row also has the air intake level almost at the top of the rear side.

Replying to: hause7 (Sep 12, 2007 7:25 pm) Not sure if Chrysler put it out or not, but the Oct. issue of Motor Trend says,(including a minivan first subwoofer)in parenthesis. The swivel seats might not be new, but it looks like the Chrysler vans are the only one having them now. I don't think any of the minivans offered a table to go with them, even before. The thing is, all the standard and options you can get with this van that aren't offered with the other minivans. Even if you take away the subwoofer, the list is pretty long. Depending on what a family wants, there is a model for most everyone. Although, I would never buy the base model. That looks really cheap.

Replying to: marine2 (Sep 12, 2007 10:03 pm) On the other hand, the base Sienna or Odyssey does not look cheap because each IS EXPENSIVE. Both EXPENSIVE Ody LX and Sienna CE or LE minivans can NOT be equipped with the comfort of separately controlled temperature for driver and front passenger (that is optional on every GC SE except the base SE for a reasonable price). After driving the Sienna LE for 20+ months, I would gladly give up the nicer looking interior for the luxury of separately controlled temperature for the driver and front passenger.

Replying to: hansienna (Sep 12, 2007 7:08 pm) You can look for yourself if you want to see more data or for the Sienna. I don't have the time to copy/paste everything for you  This was for an '08 T&C and I think the 07 & 08 Ody are identical. I was only identifying these measurements because they were different. Some of the other measurements (hip, head, shoulder) were about the same.

Replying to: tonyv1 (Sep 11, 2007 1:14 pm) 3.8L vs 3.3L engine 6spd vs 4-spd transmission Upgraded door trim materials Leather wrapped shift knob & steering wheel Illuminated front cupholders Tachometer 115V AC power outlet Dual power sliding doors (that can be manuall used instead with no extra resistence) Courtesy/map lights Rear dome light Ambient lighting Fog lights Tip start (don't have to hold key in start position during crank) Homelink garage door opener 3-zone climate control Power adjustable driver's seat 6-speakers Aluminum wheels Body colored sideview mirrors You can put whatever value you want on those items, but there is more than 20 peak horsepower, power doors and seats. |
