#1 of 4 2000 Sienna with 132,000. Time for a new van or wait? by 3girls4me8 May 21, 2009 (4:30 am)
We have a 2000 Sienna that we love. It has been the best van needing very little repair over all these years. When should I expect we will need to start replacing things? I'm trying to decide if we should keep it for another year or get a new van now. Replies to this message: ateixeira (May 21, 2009 11:02 am) jproc (May 24, 2009 7:50 am) yatesjo (May 24, 2009 6:39 pm)

Replying to: 3girls4me8 (May 21, 2009 4:30 am) In normal times, I'd just say hold on to as long as it fills your needs and doesn't require a continuous stream of repairs. However with the proposed CAFE changes the current crop of vehicles may represent the twilight of a golden age of power and utility much like the pre-1973 cars were for a quarter century.   I still say keep it, but beware. To replace your van with a vehicle of similar capability may start to get much more difficult/expensive in the next few years.
