Sienna or Odyssey?

Never thought the day would come but we have decided to get a mini van because of how practical, roomy and comfy they are with kids and a dog. Anyway, these are the 2 we are really looking into. Based on your experiences which would you choose (if price and product are super similar)? Also if you could tell me why OR if you have another mini van option you would recommend I'd appreciate it!!!

UPDATE:
Thanks everyone, we are 99.99% going to go with the Odyssey! I drove it today and loved it! Love all the cool features for driving with kids!

I have a love hate relationship with my Odyssey. I love it for all it brings to the table... space, safety features, handling, driveability.

I hate it b/c it IS a minivan. LOL. Chat Icon

My choice is the Sienna because it has AWD and in the winter months, I love the way it handles on snow and ice instead of the FWD Odyssey

Re: Sienna or Odyssey?

We have a Sienna. We didn't like the Odyssey AT ALL. I even think the new one's are ugly. Big Sienna fans over here! Chat Icon

My parents have an Odyssey. I love driving it...it's so roomy inside and it's surprisingly good on gas for being so big.

Re: Sienna or Odyssey?

I have the Odyssey. I looked at both but I like the idea that I can have 3 car seats across the middle and ave the older kids that can buckle themselves in the third row. the sienna could only have 2 car seats in the middle even in the 8 seater. I also liked how the Odyssey drove but the selling point was the seats.

i love my odyssey, i currently lease a new one also, and it is great on gas especially on the highways because it drops down to 3 cylinders.

wow what a story..

We were back and forth too and ended up with the Odyssey..

Anyone who owns a Honda (in general) swear by their product including my in-laws who work on cars for a living

and in the end my DH and I like knowing that the Odyssey was the ONLY mini-van out there (and we looked at all on the market) that offered the option to have a car seat in all 6 positions in the 2nd and 3rd row. we liked having that versatility. So we decided to look no further. We are only 2 weeks in..but we are both in love! Could NOT be happier!
