Buy the power door models. Very difficult to get in on slopped driveway or hill.
Detailed review:
I bought the Sienna CE back in 2002. No major problems until 2006. Tire inflation light kept coming on for nearly a year, even after replacing tires. Even the dealer couldn't figure it out for the longest time. It turns out that the rear brake drums were faulty and this was not a rare occurance. A safety bullitin had been issued years ago, yet no recall. It cost me over $700 for this repair. Car still rides good. No other big problems at 64k miles.
Wanted Honda Odyssey, yet Honda dealers were out of stock for months.
