I got a new (to-me) Toyota Sienna!!!

I'm so excited, I got my first minivan! LOL. It's a 2004, but it's in great shape. We weren't planning to get one until at least next spring, but DH stopped to look at it and he liked it, the price was exactly what we wanted to spend, and they seem hard to find used. It is silver, and it drives so smoothly and like a car, I couldn't believe it!!

DH went to look at an Odyssey at a Honda dealer in the same area, and after 15 minutes, the salesman came out. He was, uh, not exactly nice or helpful, and when DH asked if he could open the Odyssey so he could look at it, the man looked at him and said, "The battery in that one is dead. The battery in the other one is dead too. I can't open the power doors with a dead battery".

Anyway, I got my van, and now I'm a true "soccer mom".

I know my fellow Disers' would share my excitement!!

I also have a Toyota Sienna, but much older then yours, it's a 1998, and I still love it... never did any major repairs on it, just breaks, the timing belt and oil changes... they are really reliable... and yes, very hard to find used ones... Enjoy your mini van!!! You'll love it.
