Someone at Toyota needs to be told that the Sienna doesn't need a speedo that goes to 160.
It's in Pesos
Yeah why doesn’t it go up to 220??
In the UK here we have the much smaller, cheaper minivan called the verso with a 160 mph speedo. The fastest model does 118.
ikr, it needs to be much higher
@@ballisticmissl7919 There's also the Avanza in South America.
I have a 2004 Sienna for my commuter car. 270,000 miles and I can’t believe how well it still drives. Driver seat looks like it has 10K miles on it. Second gen is solid
My dad put 400k on his 04, and sold it for $5k after. Interior was beat up too. Felt way more solid than my 2021.
I guess you changed the timing belt at 100k miles. Did you ever change the water pump. I changed the water pump on my 2007 Sienna at 97K. The only thing. 3.5 liter
@@TobyCostaRica Probably due to the tires...Toyota puts crap tires on their cars.
It’s seems most older Toyota’s last a long time I have a 2000 Toyota Solara and that things runs like a beast with mileage at 201,987
@@TobyCostaRica we have a 2008! 312.000. Miles! You can't even hear👂👂the engine on! Solid great VAN
Now I know why I still see tons of these old Siennas on the road, them things are loaded.
minivans have been luxury cruisers for a long time. These ones don't have many features compared to top of the line ones. There is a reason the top of the line minivans are now all $50k.
i am Vietnamese and in Vietnamese plazas you will literally see these vans everywhere
They last a TON. Very durable.
In the UK, mpvs (minivans) have never had a luxurious status (probably one of the reasons they are disappearing so quickly). In continental Europe, there is one luxurious mpv called the Renault espace. You can configure it to be over 70,000 euros. But that's really it

SECOND GENERATION TOYOTA SIENNA GANG LET'S GOOO!
2nd gen still looks aggressive and sporty, 3rd looked fat and bloated, 4th gen looks best, just a little fussy. Still will keep my 2nd gen forever
My dad sold our 2013 Toyota Sienna SE to use my uncle's 2007 Toyota Sienna CE since it was free
and yeah my uncle died that's why we're using his van...
2006 owner. Great van. Inadvertently received it over time after kids grew up and wife basically took over my car as her own. Use it for my rentals these days because it carries full sheets of plywood and drywall plus tools. Took me 3 years of ownership to notice the hidden arm rest storage - I store my wallet or firearm in there as thieves would simply pass over it. About 8 years ago my kid lost her tablet and it has been an unsolved mystery ever since. Well, past summer I was vacuuming up construction debris in the van and found the long missing tablet in the hidden drawer under the passenger seat! I had no idea it existed. 221,000 miles now, running great, and btw tablet still worked and it was hilarious watching the old videos stored on the device.
My 04 sienna has 324k miles.... still running strong.. 🤟
How’s your sienna holding up? Just got an 08 love hearing about people’s high mileage siennas
People always give me looks when I say that I low key love my parent's 04 Sienna XLE Limited that they bought new before I entered high school. I got my permit in it, we toured universities in it, helped me move in/out of school, helped me w/ multiple apt moves as an adult, road trips, home depot runs, etc. etc. And it currently has only 80,000 miles for a 17 year old car so it's going to last till we go extinct.
Thankfully I have a 440i 6MT w/ an exhaust to redeem my street cred but I will always adore that van.
Love my pearl white 05 customer optioned 1owner Sienna. So fast but now that I removed the second row and pass side jumper seat .. This thing is getting converted into a camper using nice light weight birch and pine. Bar sink, hot water, wood floor, fridge etc.. Wish me luck, the floor is going to be the hardest part!!😔
Honestly the old sienna looks like a 2008 car which is a good thing
Another car that's aged well? 3rd generation 4runners, in nice shape they look like they came right off the lot. I think they have aged better than the 4th gens
well because the 2008 sienna IS the 2004 version
@@gavcom4060 Well technically they facelifted it in 2006
@@Poopsticle_256 and gave it a significantly more powerful engine

Forgot to mention that the new Sienna drives worlds better. Strong brakes, Handles great in corners. CVT is smooth and responsive compared to the 5 - speed. BUT the v6 is smoother and less vibration under medium load. Both are quiet, especially the hybrid when not being stressed. Hope this helps!
Unless the 2nd gen has new shocks, springs, rotors and pads, that could very well be due to age. I recently replaced all of those with OE parts on mine, and it feels incredible, tighter and smoother, just like a new car
I'm replacing rotors and pads this weekend. It does need new struts. That'll be next
@@peterruedig4647 even so, the biggest flaw on the second gen were indeed the brakes. I just remind myself I'm not in a Porsche when it comes time to stop. And yes, I've maintained & replaced brakes & suspension as necessary. The brakes are marginal at their best.
@@dudeonbike800 I installed a set of Akebono brake pads on my 04 XLE, it stops better now
Curious, why did you pick FWD ?? I like you own a 2008 Sienna AWD - XSE , only difference is I reserved a AWD. The salesperson asked me why AWD , his opinion was the FWD is the way to go ..
Any thoughts??? I want to change my mind before too late :) Thank you!!!
Had a 2004 Sienna XLE AWD. It was pretty good. We drove 182k after 11 years. Did well in the snow, and I think it is still driving. Cons? Automatic doors wouldn’t shut in winter all the way in winter, and car would beep while driving, rear bumper tabs failed driving down the interstate, and we were dragging bumper down interstate, had to temp fix with duct tape, seat heaters failed, passenger window failed. Replaced with 2015 Highlander. 150k repair free miles. Nothing has failed yet.
Love this guy's enthusiasm about the old sienna. I just got a used 2012 sienna since the family is expanding. I was bragging about all it's features and reliability to my friends haha
The abundance of cupholders are so you have a secure place to put the last 3 days worth of unfinished coffees.
We used to have a 2008 Toyota Sienna Limited, which we then got rid of in 2019 and upgraded to the 2020 Lincoln Navigator. But seriously, that Sienna literally held up through anything, and was so damn fast.
Wow so nice to see yours is still running like a champ!
I love the Sienna, mine is 2005 with 303K miles. Very comfortable for all around transportation and great for long trips. This van is among the most reliable vehicles out there.
We still have our 2005 too. An LE. Very comfortable. I can drive all day in it. New car seats seem harsher. Or I’m getting older. I found a 2005 LE with 61,000 miles. I wanted to buy it soooo bad. Wifey says no. 😢
change oil and drive it until the engine blows.
No transmission issues on yours with 303,000 miles?
@@hedgehogthesonic3181 transmission, engine & AC have been working perfectly since new and Dealer says it some transmission leaks but I don’t see any thing on the ground so I’m not concerned.
Incredibly the suspension is still original although dealer recommends replacing struts but again, I don’t see the need for replacing struts yet because it still handles great and no tire cupping or uneven wear found. No electrical issues and fuel injection issues, it still has the original fuel pump. Seats are soft and cushy and in excellent condition. Paint is acceptable but still original. Dealer replaced the dashboard free of charge in 2015 at around 200k miles because they found a small crack on passenger side and said it should not crack after 10 years or 200K lol 😂. My favorite road trip vehicle because of its 400-450 miles range between fill ups and there’s so much space for people and luggage.
@@seikocitizenwatches That's very impressive, Siennas seem to be among the most reliable cars made by Toyota, What about the mpg?
DAMN RIGHT the old Siennas are bad ass though! I still love mine.
I'm converting mine into a camper van😁
@@surfside75 I heard you need to cut the seats bolts out. To remove them😯😯
Not on mine. '05 limited 7 seater. Removed second row and the right side of the rear bench. Kept the left side as a love seat😁
I always love to see these older vehicles. Love TFLclassics, MotorWeek Retro Review and this video!
I haven’t gotten into the new Sienna but I bet that 2004’s quality built is better.
Great video, great comparison! Your van is all most folks ever need. Florida looks great, happy Easter!
2004-2006 was Toyota at its peak.
My 2012 has been problematic ......
I'm buying a 2004 today and can't wait! Thanks for the tips and tricks!!!
Realistic review with a comparison to a previous model (not sure if the best, but definitely a solid one). A good thing for anyone buying a car.
I like the 2021 Sienna. I have another Toyota hybrid and the quality is the best. My 2004 Sienna with 190K won’t die so I have a hard time moving to the newest generation Sienna.
Only 100k miles to go. LOL. My parents were so upset when their 2004 sequoia got totaled last year. Still have the 2004 Avalon though. Still the best highway cruiser i have even rode in (that includes my 2016 S6), handling is terrible but its a cruiser.
A awesome family, congrats. You got to love the Minivan, and all wheel drive is a great bonus to have. thx Tommy NJ
I LOVE my Sienna. I have the 2016 and absolutely love it
I have an 05 Sienna XLE Limited Mirage Blue and I can’t express how good of a van it is.
It's got a rubber timing chain. Expense to replace. So we went with a 2008. Steel chain
My family still has out 2007 sienna with over 250k miles, sure it chirps on start up and the power side door lost its slide but the ye'ole sienna is still running strong!!
Great content. True about the overhead DVD. We hardly use ours anymore after 10yrs better to get some Tablets. Great family glad you switched to youtube full-time to spend more quality time.
I got an 05 an still chugging along. It's beat all to hell but still really drives nice. Yours is in good shape. Cheers!

Me: “Go---“
Kirk: “ON MY LEFT I HAVE A 2021 ALL NEW, ALL HYBRID SIENNA”
You make great Lexus and Toyota vids
Well now I will go out and see some more features of my 2008 XLE. Thanks for the enthusiastic presentation.
A great looking 2004 sienna. I’m glad to see it looks great after 17 yrs of driving it & it’s features as well.
I love how you are comparing it to the 2021 Toyota Sienna in hybrid. That is so cool.
I own a 2013 Toyota Sienna XLE, but I wish I had AWD as well. I love it lots & my nieces & nephews do as well. It works well with car seats & the LATCH system too.
I love how you keep your kids in straps as long as possible. I did my nieces & nephews as well when they were all little til age 8 in 1/2 yrs old. Then into booster car seats for as long as possible as well. My younger niece & nephew are still in boosters today will be til there ready for the adult seatbelt. Which is still a few yrs away!
Keep up the good safety with your kids.
I live in Arvada,CO!
My daily driver is an 04 Sienna LE, 2wd. 274k miles and counting. Did struts, tie rods and sway bar links at 240k, other than that, just oil changes and brakes. I love it. It’s comfortable, its fast, it’s good in the snow, it can carry full sheets of plywood, and it gets 24 mpg. I put 120 miles a day on it commuting to work and back, and the interior looks the same as it did in 2004, nothing has worn out or broken, even the power doors work fine. It was well designed and well built, as a Toyota should be. All that to say I don’t think we’ll be saying the same thing about the 2021 Sienna in 17 years, which is a real shame.
I love toyota! Great car, wonderful family Kirk!! :) love your videos. The commitment is real.
My '04 XLE Limited AWD has 197,000 and running strong. Looking to convert the old girl into an overland camper soon.
I have the 2006 Limited Sienna AWD, which is considered the best year for this Sienna generation. It has only 78K miles on it (99% freeway miles). It comes out only for a long trip. Otherwise, it sits in the garage under a cover. It has gone all over the western United States. it one time saved our lives as we drove down a steep hill that had black ice in Lake Tahoe. Last month I had the original brakes from the factory changed on the front, but the Toyota dealership said that the rear brakes were barely worn and do not need to be changed. Service is always done at the dealership and the service advisors all admire my Sienna. My Sienna did not come with “Fix a Flat”. It came with only with run flat tires, no spare tire.
Lexus needs to hook you up. It does not compute that such a Toyota / Lexus dedicated enthusiast and journalist can't have one Lexus in his fleet.
I've once heard a joke about Toyota and Lexus vehicles. A Lexus is just a Toyota with better soundproofing. Rather than giving him a Lexus i think they should make his Prius into something more comfortable (softer seats, more leather/faux leather, better stereo, suspension upgrade, rattle fixes, etc.)
@@eivis13 nah Lexus is not an upgraded prius. It's much more than that hence it competes with other luxury brands.
Well, he promotes the Korean brands now which is the competition, so I don't think Lexus should have to do anything for him.
What kind of "journalist" would he be if he took free stuff from brands?
@@eivis13 Maybe you heard that BUT most of the people saying that never owned a Lexus and can't afford them!
Old is gold! I just subbed now you’ve helped me so much with getting a van! Just a note I wanted to add - 2004 was the first year of the second gen - it’s truly testament to Toyota’s perfection : they were creating some truly magnificent cars during that era. We’re just losing that emphasis in 2021
Thanks man! 2021 is the biggest change since the 2004 came out. Once the sienna has a prime option, it will be nearly perfect
@@KirkKreifels I couldn’t agree more with you on the DVD system - it’s honestly a great family experience where everyone is able to bond together and have a good time : I don’t believe in individual entertainment screens haha
I’ve got an 04 highlander and thing is built like a tank just like the sienna. Great cars.
i have a 2007 sienna at 260k miles and runs perfectly good
the slide door is now partly auto but asides that functions perfectly
We have a 2000 sienna with 282,000 miles, runs great. Everything works just fine.
You made me fully in love with 2004 sienna. I am so much in temptation to buy it right away..
The efficiency of these two minivans has doubled over the past 17 years. From 18 mpg, up to 36 mpg. Plus, adjusted for inflation, the new van is $10,000 cheaper than the old one. Overall, I’m pretty impressed with the advancement.
Hah, the efficiency stayed almost exactly the same for 16 yrs and then doubled in one year.
but did you see the average on the screen when he was showing the speedo area was only 23.6? It's at 7:17 where you can see it.
wait till the maintenance costs for the hybrid come in, or when one of the batteries breaks down outside of warrantee
@@allenfsanchez9572 they'll never understand
@@allenfsanchez9572 Toyota hybrids are some of the most reliable Toyotas made. Taxi drivers push Prius/hybrid Camrys hard and fleet data shows usage to 300-400k no problems in NYC taxis. If you ever ridden in a NYC taxi you’ll know that’s severe duty 300-400k
Can’t wait to see tomorrow!
That 2004 sienna looking back... got more for less whereas today's cars pay more for less
Yep
39K was a lot of money in 2004, today not so much.
The 2004 Sienna is 54k adjusted, he mentioned that in the video. Compared to the newer Sienna he tested which is 46K! I won't lie and say that the new Sienna has it's issues, but with the right mid cycle refresh they'll figure out some of the smaller details (more headroom, better build quality and fit and finish, removable second row seats, more power for the hybrid and hopefully the 12.3in infotainment found in the new Highlander).
You mean more power, safer, quieter, and way more MPG in the newer?
@@cbkenison More reliability too on the hybrid one, due to the simplicity of the planetary gear set that Toyota uses in their hybrids, just 2 electric motors and a few gears, no pressure discs, clutch, fluid valves, none of that.
Love comparisons like these
Awesome job 👏
I just bought my ‘06 FWD LE. 250k miles, one owner, garage kept, for $1,000. It’s gonna be my new daily driver/weekend getaway rig. So far it’s impressed me.
Keep up the maintenance and your Toyota Sienna, can last up to 600,000.00 miles. A youtuber, post a video (2021), of her 2004 Toyota Sienna, with 601,000.00 miles.
This is important information. Thank you
Good video. Just let my 04 Sienna go recently as it just turned 360,000 km, yes that’s km, as l am in Ontario Canada. This van dealt with the salt and snow and crap weather we get here, and NEVER let us down. It was the LE so had mid row captains chairs, and was awesome for travelling with another couple. I needed a truck, and l saw this 2014 Tundra with 350,000 km on it, so obviously it was highway driven. Have had it six months and not a worry in the world about it. I do still miss the Sienna, she took good care of us for 17 years, and is still on the road. May find ourselves in one again some day, but l will look for one that is a few years old. The new one you had there did less for me than your dressed out 04. I swear they were built better. Ours came from Tennessee when we got it. Cheers, and thanks again for the good info.
Thank you for sharing your story! The old siennas were special
"she took good care of us for 17 years and is still on the road" got me all choked up in tears, shows how great a van she was and still is.
Thanks for sharing!
I have 2004 limited AWD with 190,000 miles on it I love it
Love your channel Kirk!
Thanks man!
Liked this review. Will definitely subscribe.
This is a great channel. Knew I’d see the day you had 100k. Been here since 5k
Thanks Zach!
@@KirkKreifels been here since like 200 subs
Really great to see how this channel has grown
@@KirkKreifels I remember watching some of your early streams and talking about Lexus. You were still LexuriousKirk then. I think that’s what it was
We still have our 2006 Toyota Sienna Le that we brought new. It has 180k miles and it's running pretty well. Downside is it eats tires extremely fast, sliding doors needs some persuasion to close, and transmission needs to be flush because it's slipping a bit.
A full spare tire is an option on the new Sienna and most of them are built with them. They're installed in the driver side rear where the "Fix a flat" is located.
Cars were really wholesome back then.
I could do the same exact comparisons with my vans; 2004 LE, 2022 LE awd. I love them both The hybrid platform is just different, but in good way. I love the fact it runs only when required. I get 33 mpg highway and 40 mpg city. Yes things may feel cheaper in some ways but in the end 99% of all vehicles end up recycled in 20 years. You put the money in the moving components and in areas where it counts. I was born in 1967 and have a excellent account of all the cars throughout the years. Cars today are huge improvement of the past. I can live with cheap carpet and few squeaks, for great gas mileage and advanced safety features. I never thought for second when I purchased my 2004 that I would own it till now and have so few mechanical issues. You can reflect on the past, but not on the future. I will be upgrading my 2022 when the plug in comes in. The gas you save can make up for maintenance in the long run.
Your 2004 is fancier then my 2006 but I love it. Hauled tons of kids for years. Now that they are grown and gone I have moved them to college and back and to college again. Not to mention hauls from Lowe’s and Costco. It has served us very well. Now I’m converting it into my camper van. Plenty of living to do in my Siena. ;) I’d be way more interested in upgrading if all the seats came out of the new one. I want ALL the access to the cargo/camping space.
My story and my plan is exactly the same as yours. Mine is 04 base trim, she has served us well. My kid just graduated this year, no more university move, house reno is done, I am about to retire, so I am going to convert the van into a camper.
wow a 2004 with adaptive cruise control! so innovative
I love my 05 sienna it's identical to yours limited awd. I use it to haul stuff so having removable center seats is a big plus for me. Love my dual glove box, hidden pocket doors, removable center console. It has been super reliable.
Only issue as all Sienna owners knows is the cracked dash, which mine has been replaced.
Heck if you are in California, I would buy yours from you. It still looks really nice.
I passed on the 2012 to 2020 models( removable center seats but what is that big track bumps and lack of storage up front )because of these same reasons, and now 2021 they made it worse.
I only wished Toyota made the new sienna just as practical in use of space . I don't know why the Sienna designer do not continue these practicalities , it's what I really want in a reliable mini van.
Pretty sure people to buy the new Sienna understand these things and buy the van not for hauling cargo but more focused on people transport like you are doing with 4 car seats.
Please Toyota, make the 2022 Sienna with 2 options, practical van for people like me to haul stuff with the removable center seats , removable center console, to start with and one for passenger hauling.
The 2004 Toyota Sienna xle limited awd was an amazing minivan!😄
I would love to see and size comparison between the old sienna vs new!!
My uncle just got a 2005 sienna le with 155k miles a month ago and man that thing is so comfy i love it. the interior is in excellent shape and looks pretty much like new. the only one minor problem it has is that the automatic door doesn't fully close all the way and leaves a very very small gap, so he just turns off the power door and opens/closes it manually instead. other than that the minivan runs excellent and is a very comfy ride. i also have some family members that have/had 3rd gen siennas and those are also great. haven't been in one of the new ones yet but maybe some day.
There’s a delay before the lift gate will start to open when you use the kick sensor, to give people time to move out of the way.
If you try and kick it again too soon you’ll end up just closing/canceling the opening sequence.
I have a 2006 sienna XLE myself, such a great car. I've had some issues with the radio system, but it runs fine. That gas mileage though, good lord.
Really like our new Sienna XSE... just hope the materials hold up as well as our 2015 Limited over time.
*Great video man !!!!!!!*
*I have a 2004 Sienna CE and it has been driven for 240,000 km. I got it in November 2018 and we are 6 members. This van .. if it is not a grace from God, then I don't know what it is! It drives us everywhere and never let us down in terms of reliability and holding up to the extreme cold Canadian weather.*
*My uncle also had a 2004 Sienna CE. Bought it for $4,000 CAD, owned it for a year and then sold it again for $4,000 CAD to a friend that insisted to buy it for any price.. lololololollyy*
*Thanks for the upload. I am a 22 years old Iraqi resident who loves the Japanese cars. When I saw this Sienna video is 5 days old, I said I must say something. I said a lot of things haha.*
Stay safe and all the best to you and your family.
Sad to see the newer model loses so much of the utility that the old model had. I've taken the seats out of our 2000 Toyota Sienna and hauled lumber and other materials many times over the years for home repairs.
4x8 sheets in back with tailgate closed. 10 '+ long boards easily fit diagonally inside with tailgate closed. 16' 2x12 lumber on roof rack for short distances. Also put a 32' ladder up there once. This generation of Sienna is a beast. Wheel barrows, table saw on roller stand, 12" chop saw on stand, 1700lbs of rock veneer stone, roofing, concrete bags. Rains here a lot and Sienna keeps everything dry and secure vs. my truck.
I was intending on making the same comment. I have a 2007 with 238000 miles on it and it's still going strong. Looks like I'll hang on to it as long as I can. The fact I can haul 4x8 sheets of plywood or drywall or a couch, bed, dresser with the rear door closed is fantastic. I've even hauled a piano laying on it's back and my John Deere riding mower with the seat removed.
Not being able to remove the second row ruins it.
@@madcowusa4277 It's a work horse
I *just* traded in my 2004 Toyota Sienna XLE Limited AWD - it was IDENTICAL to yours.
My dash cracked a *lot* more than yours did, unfortunately. The slider door cables being on the exterior of the vehicle was a huge design flaw in that year - mine broke, so I had manual sliders for the rest of the time I had it.
Mine was an excellent van for the 5 years I had it - from 135,000 miles to 175,500 when I traded it in. It had finally reached the point of not being practical to keep repairing the things that were wearing out and breaking on a regular basis due to age.
Old Blue, my 2004 Sienna still wags its tail and likes to play catch. Yeah its getting into its late teens but I have absolutely no reason to stop driving it. This car had a few first-model-year quirks like wonky seatbelts and a sparetire that couldn't stay where it was put but overall its been a real gem. It gets used like a pickup truck and as a multi passenger wagon..its all good!
=) I have a 2004 Toyota Sienna Limited AWD also, 111, 000 miles and every thing still works, ( put Lexus GS 18" wheels on it 245/50r18, drives way more stable and converted all the lights to LED)
Nice review kirk watching this makes me home sick, born in Miami living in Canada now and its still cold up here. I also saw two new 2022 Honda Civic sedans testing up in Collingwood Ontario
Come back down haha. Can't wait for the new Civic!
That driving position in the new van looks really claustrophobic and I like the thicker sidewall tires of the older van.
love the new sienna design
Adaptive cruise control on a 2004 sienna amazing I thought only high ends and exotic only have this feature at the time.
most exotic cars don't have adaptive cruise control system's LOL even the new ones don't.
Really interesting comments. Lots of people here in Hawaii are still driving 2004 Siennas. A taxi service bought their 2004s brand new and now have 500,000 miles on each of them and still running smooth.
I have 2004 with 344000miles great van rides good so much comfort
A spare tire is available on the 2021’s, it’s a $75 option I do believe
Unless you go for a vacuum, which takes the same place in the side wall.
I have a 2005 sienna that we are the only owners. Has almost 300k miles on it and doesnt burn any oil and still drives great. Best car ever!
you ever change the transmission fluid ?
You know what's funny, my family actually has similar vans too, we have a 2005 XLE Limited & a 2021 XSE
Holy crap! Kirk must be busy in the bedroom because that's a lot of car seats!!😂😂
I went to test drive the new Sienna. but after watched you, I bought the 2005 Sienna clean limited fwd 💰. I can’t see myself writing checks every month for the next 6 years for it.
Hey Kirk you can update the interior lights with LEDs to brighten up the interior.......I'm quite sure you can drive that 04 till your girls are ready for college lol
Woah the old sienna had a lot of cool features
Ikr
Minivan is so cool. Wish we get these Siennas here. Looks so much better than the loads of tall big boy Alphard/Vellfire here in my place 😂 Even the Odyssey we got is not the same as the one in US. Thankfully we still got same Carnival as yours. Cheers Kirk 😁
206,000 miles on my 2010 Sienna and just replaced the wheel bearing. Super solid van with regular tires and fluid maintenance.
Same here 2009 Sienna 240,000 miles. Just changed wheel bearing, tie rod, sway bar link as well. Got it aligned. Super smooth. I went ahead and cleaned the throttle body/maf sensor as well.
just discovered this channel, love Toyota and Lexus cars. My cousin's 1999 Sienna is still holding on...sadly new ones are SOOO expensive.
But filled with Sooo much tech and safety features!

FYI Kirk the 2021 doesn’t come w a spare tire standard. However it is available on all trims (including AWD) for $75. Only negative is that It’ll reduce the cargo area
Props for Pixel 2 XL 👍 Just replaced my 04 XLE Limited w a 2011 XLE. Used the savings on a new Sienna on Nintendo Switches for the kids lol. Really miss those fold down seat backs! Biggest upside of the new van is *fuel economy.*
Seeing your old Toyota brings me back. I traded that one for the model in between your old model and the present sienna. I rented and was able to drive a 2023 Sienna on a recent trip in Alaska. Loved the gas mileage. Not the acceleration or the non flat smaller cargo space with no 2nd row seat removal. With the strength of your review and lack of availability of Toyotas in general (to say nothing of the outrageous markups) I’ll be keeping my old sienna a while. Maybe a different dealership. I purchased 10 Toyotas or Scions from them in the past but no loyalty to past customers.
Awesome, The '21 is so much Sportier. But hey, still + & - on both. I wish they kept the 300hp v6 would have been sweet. Stay Safe, Be Safe!!!!
Hauled 12 ft baseboards and 6x8 plywood in a 2001 sienna... Can't even do that with a short bed tacoma without using extenders
I didn’t know your Sienna came with Pre-Collision System back in 2004 model year!?
The interior of the 04 sienna looks very similar to my 04 GX. Pretty sure we have the same steering wheel. Wood trim and all. Dash pad looks very similar as well.
If you got a 21 Limited with AWD, it would probably have the same features as far as wood, soft touch materials, and AWD, more power and twice the MPG. This kind of shows how excellent the 2004 was, and Toyota tried to reproduce that with more power and double the MPG
A more fair comparison would've been to the limited or Platinum. Got to play with the cards I've been dealt 😂
Congrads on your new Sienna. Cool dad drive van. I still have my 2001 Sienna, it's still humming ... Great engine
cool to see a review from a person that really needs a minivan , anyway both cars are decent just get what you can afford
