What a nice upgrade!

Perfect for a mom with young kids, wish I got this vehicle years ago! Just took a road trip and it went well!

This van is amazing!

I can go anywhere in style and know I will make it from point a to point b. I have an ex trim and I love it. Mine has 174,098 miles so I will probably update my van pretty soon.

Tops All Minivans

We love our Odyssey, the largest, most comfortable riding of all mini-vans for just two persons to a car-full of adults and children. Serves us well!

Nothing beats the Honda Odyssey

After having our 2006 Honda Odyssey EX-L rear-ended, we were forced to look for a replacement minivan. Tried all other makes and models in this category and still ended up purchasing another Honda Odyssey. Nothing beats its value and reliability. But we went with the Touring edition and couldn't be happier. All the features you would want on a minivan.

Best family car for driving in town and out of tow

I like it, I found what I need for myself and my family in this car. DVD player is very good, with the wireless head phones.

Consistently practical, comfortable and reliable.

We moved from snowbound Michigan south where snow was not so prevalent. We traded our Sequoia (an awesome vehicle) for a more practical Odyssey- 8 seater- as we have a large family. We bought one with 120k and now are at 160k. This vehicle has proven to be consistently reliable and very practical. It is the perfect family vehicle. All the exterior and interior features are solid and typically will not break. The folding back seats are simply wonderful. The precision of the drive and overall feel of the ride is a cut above the Sienna- we also owned (a 2007) for about 4 years. We did have an interesting misfire with a cylinder and were informed that at times these have "sticky rings" (pistons)..which is a massive expense- basically replacing the engine. I am watching carefully- it is rare but it is out there and possible.

Very long lasting

I'm very pleased with the smoothness and space in this vehicle. The van drives well and doesn't have a loud engine. The materials seem well made.

The standard for mini-vans

This vehicle has been great as a kid-hauler, grocery-getter, vacation-packer. It lacks the pizazz of the sportier cars, but hey, that's not what you get when you have 3 car seats in the back. Very nice, comfortable, reliable car with no issues to speak of.

Fantastic family vehicle

Drive it daily and never have a problem with it. Only very minor issue is the tire pressure sensors. We've had to replace 2 of them. Drives excellent, quiet interior at highway speeds. Handles well.
