2006 Toyota Sienna LE from North America - Comments

Not one thing wrong with it!

This is our 3rd Sienna. We truly love these vans! We traded our 2003 Sienna for this one, and we can honestly say that Toyota has done a tremendous job of building excellent minivans.

Our 2003 Sienna LE was a great family minivan, and this one just adds on to what was a great family minivan, and is even better.

This one is a Blue Mirage Metallic one, and has the hubcaps, not the optional alloy wheels. My husband and our 3 kids and our 2 beagle dogs adore this one. It handles excellent, rides that way, and is great on the road. It is way more versatile than our 2 previous versions of the Sienna. Plus, it is much more roomier than those 2.

To be honest with you, a lot of our friends are definitely trading in their Chrysler minivans just to get one of these. Same thing goes for some of our family members.

So if you in the market for a minivan, you owe it to yourself to see your nearest Toyota dealer and look at one of these minivans. Chances are that you will think twice before looking at the Chrysler minivans, and buying one of these.

These minivans are definitely giving the Chrysler minivans a run for their money. There are so many of the 2006 models on the road as we speak. These will definitely outseat the Chrysler minivans as the best selling minivans soon, we hope!

So buy one, and you will make it your loyal family friendly, kid friendly, and dog friendly minivan for life.

I lost the fever after a 2 years of driving on deteriorate roads. Rattles and suspension issues took over. My dealer have replaced numerous bushings to softened the ride, but the structure was affected.

One of the best dealer or Toyota employee written reviews

I've read. Some of it right out of the brochure, very good.

Last I checked, my dogs did not car a lick, wag or bark what make/model of I have as long as they are in the car with me. Also, you mention "Chrysler" almost as often as you do Toyota or Sienna. Comes across to me that you have deep respect for Chrysler's product, but just don't want people to buy it. You don't mention at all the other top selling minivan--the Odyssey.

Lastly, if the Sienna is going to be the top selling minivan, it has to out sell both the Dodge/Chrysler van and Honda's Odyssey, both of which are regularly on the top 10 "trucks" sold every month (wardsauto.com\key data) It has a long way to go.

I have been driving a 1997 Dodge Grand Caravan SPORT for 10 years (128,000 miles) It has been a work horse. Comfortable ride, good handling and great on long trips. I have never had a problem with the engine. That being said I have had problems with the power locks freezing and needing replacement more than once, a phantom wiper which was fixed many times, and a power window mechanism breaking.

We are in the market for a new van and are considering the Sienna. We test drove the Sienna and found the ride to be very similar to our Caravan Sport. I am looking forward to all the new safety features available and am hoping we get a model which lives up to Toyota's reputation. We will not buy an AWD with run-flat tires thanks to this forum.

My dad has been driving a Sienna for a few years and likes it a lot.

My wife and I love our Sienna van!!! We have taken lots of out-of-town trips and have never had a problem. We also have a Camry, and the Sienna gives us more room for the kids on trips.

The comment about the Chrysler vans and their high rating, is probably because the Chrysler van is cheaper and their owners do not know the difference between a good ride and a great ride. The Sienna is rated right along with the Odyssey and priced lower. Do yourself a favor and spend the money, get a Sienna van, and enjoy the ride!!!
