Have had our 2007 Entourage since it was practically new and it's served us very very well. Nearly 100k on the odo now too.

Didnt you guys just get that like a year ago? What did you get her now?

[nurkvinny]

We just bought a '12 - I think - Odyssey Touring after looking for a long time. Highly recommended.

Honda Pilot, Needed 4wd

We really looked at the Toyota and Honda. In the end, honda had a nicer interior and the spare tire is inside instead of underneath. We have had our 2011 Odyssey now for 2 years and love it. Good luck.

If i was going to cut my balls off, i would get a odyssey, with a town and country a hair behind.

If you want the Chrysler minus the looks, you can look at the VW Routan...essentially the same running gear ect.. A good friend of mine just got a LOADED one for under 25 with like 30K on it... I think you can get a lot for your money with them as opposed to the essentially same Town and Country

Good luck replacing the PAX tires. Cheaper to buy 4 normal wheels and tires than replace the PAX tires

I have a 2015 Grand Caravan on the lot, I could save you a chunk of money on.

Shoot me a PM if you would be interested in it, and I'll look up my costs on it in the morning.

[gillbot]

This was $24k

Pricing would be very close to the same without supplier of you qualify for the many incentives currently being offered.

Honda

Toyota

Nissan Quest

 

And two off balls

 

New pathfinder and newer Ford Flex limited ecoboost

Make sure the Flex will fit if you have a single car garage. It's wide.

It came with new non-original, normal tires. PAX died on Odyssey 2010ish.

Yup. Our 2010 EX-L has standard 16" tires. Michelin PAX tires were only from 2005-2007.

[Forrest Gump 9]

Yep, 17.5" rims. I threw them away the day after I bought the odyssey.

 

It's really depend on what you're going after. Odyssey will drive sportier, a little rougher. Sienna will drive a little smoother, but it'll also put you to sleep. And the Nissan Quest if you really like gas station, because some brilliant at Nissan decided to put a five gallon gas tank on it. I personally have the odyssey it's 180k miles now a delegated to trash hauler and HomeDepot run but still run fine. Actually yesterday a Subaru/Scion thingy couldn't get pass me on 315. That was rather amusing.

LOL...that's the one thing I like about our van....it has guts, will spin off the light and has enough HP to insure it doesn't run out of gas on the highway. Passes are done with ease.

Looking like we are going to go with a new Nissan Pathfinder. Wife drive it this morning and loved it. She can't bring herself to a minivan yet. The pathfinder has tons of storage space, 3rd row, nice interior. Hopefully we will be in it tomorrow.
