There’s an orthopeadic doc in laffy I trained a dog for that traded his F250 for a mini van. Guy was a pole vaulter at LSU and does senior now. I clowned him but after explaining how practical it was for traveling to meets I shut up. Wife bought a sienna from PL years ago and it was the best vehicle we have ever owned.

Mine is the best vehicle I’ve ever owned. Newest and lowest mileage too. Absolutely love it

Enjoyed our Sienna immensely on trips to Chattanooga and such like places with family.

Until Mrs M. and I were rear ended by a Tacoma. Front seats and mid seats all broke and fell back flat. Only the driver's and front passenger's seat were occupied. Got Mrs. M. a Tahoe to replace it.

Pretty sure any vehicle would have had problems hit as hard as we were. We just thought the bigger Chevy frame was safer.

I'm big on Toyota. Just bought a 2021 Camry as the kids are older and driving now, but I have owned three Siennas ('02, '06, '09). They have all been very dependable and mostly trouble-free for hauling the kids to school and other activies. The only negative that comes to mind is that the windshields are rock magnets.

I'd forgotten that. It's true.

Not a Sienna but we got a 2016 town and country leather with DVD player it hauls all 3 of the kids around with ease. All the seats fold into the floor and we were able to load a full size fridge in the back. It is also nice knowing my kids won’t slam their doors into other people vehicles, since the doors slide back.

So you have me looking at these vans. May replace my city driver coup with one since it’s about dead. Told my wife I’d do it if I can get the personalized license plate RAPVAN. It’s available. She got mad. One of you sienna baws should jump on that plate.

We had a Sienna back around the turn of the century. Loved it.
