Am I the only one still waiting to get my Camry fixed? Our appointment isn't until Wed. The dealership is giving us a Sienna to drive for our valentine's weekend get-a-way.

On a side note, someone call my hubby and tell him 2 teenagers and a preteen do not a romantic get-a-way make.

Word on the street is that there are really only 2 minivans to get, the Odyssey or the Sienna.

I'm leaning toward the Sienna because of the 4wd. Chicago is not a place to be driving sportscars or rearwheel drive anything. Even frontwheel drive is just ok.

4wd or nothin' for me, and the Sienna is the only mini that offers it.

I've been hearing that Toyota is struggling right now.

And not just because of that accelerator stuff.

Dunno.

I'm contemplating getting a Sienna, yeah, I'm that guy with the two carseats and minivan (maybe).

Let me know what you think of it.

My wife drives a Sienna. We got it about 4 months ago. She LOVES it.

She had a Nissan Quest before and it was a piece of crap. Drove bad...rattled...constant issues.

However, the Sienna has been very nice. I would recommend one if you must drive a minivan. Better....have wife drive minivan and you get a convertible.

That is my dream anyway.

I pick it up at 5 today. I'll let you know my first impressions. I can't remember in all the years Chris has been in cars, if he ever drove one home. I've driven every other van, though.

This week, he's been driving a mini cooper. I wish everyone could see Chris and both kids getting in that thing every morning. I'd love to keep it, but that won't happen.

Just drive your camery, You should be fine. Of course the dealership won't tell you this cuz they don't wanna be liable .. If you pedal happens to stick just throw your car in netural or you can hold the start button down for 3 seconds and you car will turn off.. To many people just freeze in shock when their car has an isssue soooo if anything happens just stay calm and do the things I stated.

As for minivans the best minivan on the market is the Mercedes Benz R class

The Quest we drove a couple of weeks ago was the same way. Electrical issues, too. The radio wouldn't work if you put it in reverse. My main issue was the turning ratio. I am not a bad parker. I can back a dually with a 20 ft trailer with no problem, let alone park it. I couldn't get the quest in a parking space to save my life.

Why should I drive my Camry when the dealership is offering a van? I drive it around town. My car doesn't have a start button. I turn the key.

Oh ok by the op I got the assumption that you weren't happy with driving a minivan lol.

No, it's all the kids going. One isn't even ours. LOL

Seriously, it's been a rough year for us. I can't leave them at home the first chance we get to go somewhere for the weekend. They'd better remember this later in life.

      An Offensive Tackle for the Long Term, but....

      Brother you've been WR driven for going on almost two decades now.  No need for us to discuss further.

      First, apologies @MHS831, I know you began this about tackles, and it was good. But... Frank, your post is just another Bryce sucks post. You obviously believe, like your buddy, that if we draft a WR it's all about evaluating Bryce Young or coddling Bryce Young. In short, it would be about improving the damned team. If anything, if Bryce is as destined to fail (or is already a failure right now... irredeemable), then another playmaker at WR would just seal the envelope and send him on his way. In my world, that's a good thing.  If some of you think that Bryce is a lame duck, then why wouldn't you want to set the offense up for the next QB to come in and be dropped into the offense to have success? Or, maybe you think it's all a moot point anyway because Tepper sucks, Dan Morgan sucks, Canales sucks, Ejiro sucks, Brandt Tilis sucks---everybidy sucks! If that's the case, then why does anyone care who or what we draft? Obviously some of you have all the answers and can run a gotdamn franchise better than the FO does now.

      Yeah man, idk. I’m not super big on looking at the position group overall and damning the group. I’ll do the same with less words for WR. I think Proctor is the ultimate fit because he could be your future left or right tackle or left or right guard. Guys a starter, how much Zavala, Christensen, Curhan, and Corbett did we see last year again? Mauigoa will not be there when we pick, but you take him for the same reason you take Proctor minus maybe the LT. Freeling *could* be an upgrade at LT for the future. You don’t take Miller or Iheanahor because the position flexibility isn’t there, likely RT only guys. Those Utah guys are light in the ass, don’t want. Now I do WR. All extremely unproductive when compared to previous Round 1 WR. Tate- Gone Lemon- Complete player, not a burner, would take at 19 Tyson- Made of glass, Colorado washout  Cooper- Not the best hands. Like 300 of his yards were lucky ass stumble blooper looking poo. Bernard gives you similar but better in the 2nd. KC- Slaps then catches the ball. Lightning fast for about 20 yards. Good return man. poo QBs probably more to unlock. Would take at 19 if Proctor, Freeling, Lemon were gone. Washington guy- Lumbers, the smoothness Canales hyped for TMac, not there with him. We need a different style player.
