as long as it doesn't supplant or make irrelevant the Sienna. They really ought to offer it in 2.4L and 2.4-hybrid versions only. Either you or mackabee was saying that RAV and HL are Toyota's offerings to those folks who want a Camry wagon. I don't think so. Those models are a poor substitute for a proper wagon, which would benefit from being lower to the ground/lower-roofed when it comes to fuel economy and handling. On the flip side, Sienna is HUGE. Some people need a huge and versatile vehicle like that, and this FTSX will not be a good replacement for it. I am still not warmed up to the looks of the "Zio" - that is the vehicle we are talking about here, right?

They could call it the Camry Mark X! That would be catchy and we could count them towards Camry sales. Just like Honda used to count the wagons, couples, and sedans as Accord sales.  Mackabee

Toyota is putting a plan in place for the eventual marginalization of the minivan. The Odyssey and Sienna are the two best in the market, and they are seeing 10-15% drops every year. The crossover is replacing the minivan, and Toyota is coming up with a crossover that thinks it's a minivan. It's a plan. In 5 years, we'll see if it bears fruit. Toyota could be ahead of the curve with this large, low crossover. Chrysler may get credit for starting it. Will Toyota perfect it?  DrFill
