Reliable sienna with quality design.
Very reliable. Only problem is o2 sensors tend to fail frequently. Also the door handles tend to break. Otherwise it is well designed and reliable.

Our Toyota van is very reliable, has enough room for extra passengers, and the CD player is wonderful.
I love the roomy seats, the great A/C, cargo space. This has been a very reliable vehicle for our family. I will be very sad when we need to replace it.

It is a perfect car for a mom/family with kids. Or for those who transport people a lot.
I love it! It is a perfect size for our little growing family. It has plenty of storage and room for people. Very durable and easy to drive.

Everything still works like new.
I have never had any problems with my car other than things that would normally need replacing with age. Any time I have had a problem, I immediately have it fixed. Everything on my car works, electric seats, windows, etc. Work like new. I have 260, 000 on this car and it runs just great.

Older model van, looks great, runs well!
We love that this van has 8 full seats for our large family. The extra storage throughout is also helpful. This van drives smoothly and gets good gas mileage.

Dependable and reliable. . .
Reliable and dependable and has only needed minor repairs in 16 years I have owned it. Drives great and can hold a lot of stuff or people has not been a money eater on repairs more than I expected over the years it to have and it is a dependable and reliable car to have.

Toyota Sienna not just for moms anymore. Gets the job done without being an SUV.
The van has comfortable seating. Plenty of room for suitcases if we travel without having luggage around our feet. I can fit six adults comfortably if we are a crowd. It gets decent gas mileage 20 mpg. As it is older I pay lower taxes and insurance. It also is higher than a crossover without the gas guzzling of an SUV.

It gets very good gas mileage. I drive 30 miles a day five days a week and a full tank lasts all five days.
It's a good car with excellent gas mileage. My one complaint is it sits low so when you are driving at night another taller vehicle will be using their lights and blind you.
accountCircle Mai M
It is old and need to fix a lot of things.
The muffler is not good, it keep making noise when stepping on the gas pedal. The back and right side of the door handle broke.
accountCircle Pamela M
It seats 7 and can haul a lot of things and is not bad on gas for a an older van.
I like that it still runs. I like that it does not use a ton of gas considering how old it is. I don't like the fact that it is old, but we do not want a car payment. Ilike the fact that it does not require a lot of work to it for as it is an older van.
accountCircle Julie L
Good price and reliable..
I like the space inside and gas mileage. I like have two front and two side doors. I dislike the cheaply made door handles which break easily.
accountCircle Reggie S
Best minivan you can get.
What sets this vans specs apart is that the ability to turn on a dime. The speed its capable of is great everything handles well and it is pretty quiet. Toyota always makes great vehicles. The sienna is a really fun vehicle that so happens to be a minivan.

Reliable Van good for long or short trips
My 2002 Toyota Sienna is a reliable and comfortable van. All of its electronics and air conditioning still works, although the air conditioning can be fairly loud when on full. The sunroof does not close fully on my model. My vehicle has a leak in it, where water will pool at the floor on the drivers side whenever there is a long rain storm. The vehicle still drives well. The power steering is still functional as are all of the power windows and doors.

If you take care of it the motor will last, it is a reliable family vehicle.
Reliable vehicle. Issue with door handles breaking on the exterior. Paint is peeling on the hood, seems to be a common complaint. Turning radius seems to be worse than a Suburban.

It's been a very dependable vehicle. Great gas mileage!
My vehicle was purchased from a friend. The professional mechanic that recommended it is, in fact, the only one that's ever been under the hood. I trust him plus I knew the previous owner . . . All good
